Woody Kincaid?
Really??
Yes, in an astounding time trial on a mostly hidden behind trees track ub Portland, Kincaid PR'd by a humongous amount, ending in 12:58.10 in a great 5000!!
He's now 5th A-T US!
Lopez Lomong outdueled Matthew Centrowitz to take 2nd in 13:00.19 to Centro's 13:00.39!
They are 9th and 10th A-T US!!
OFF the list is Centro's Daddy--Matt--whose 13:12.91 dated from 1982!!
Add Dad and Son's times & you get 26:13.30!!
Fastest ever Father-Son combo???

Darrell Hill reached 73-4, but it wasn't a PR!
In other SP news, Jacko Gill finally wentt over 70 feet, at 70-5.25!!
A World Record for Geoff Kamworor!!
His Win in the Copenhagen Half took just 58:01!!
THe passed 20K in 55:00--or a pair of 27:30's back to back--then adding seven teenths of a mile at about 4:18 pace to close it off!!

I want to do my WC Previews BEFORE they start later today, so the rest of my late results will be in briefer format/!!

JHeer sister Polly used to hold the OUTdoor HSR in the MMile!!
Steven Gardiner ran a 400 in 44.14!
But even more interesting was the return of Kirani James!!

Where was he??
In the Pole Vault--

Tom O'Hara, one of America's finest early sub-4 Milers, died at the age of 77!!
He's best known for his one time Indoor Record of 3":56.4!!
His Irish carrot colored hair reminded one of Dave Wottle!!
Rest in Peace!!
Christian Coleman may have escaped punishmewnt for supposedly missing 3 \random drug tests, but I doubt he'll escape suspicion as he heads for a double in Doha!!
These things seem to stick--guilty or innocent!!
Brianna Williams's case is still to be decided, but her camp says she didn't take drugs on purpose!!
Hmmmm!
I seem to have made a BIG error regarding Tony Martin!!
He's the HS kid who supposedly LJ'ed 26-6 in the early OUTdoor season!!
But I noticed his name missing from T&FN's lists, and their final rankings!!
They say his mark was of "questionable measurement"!!
First I heard of that!!
IF true, then remove him from the list, and from my Honorable Mention in my recent AOY post!!
See you soon!
