As we start to work our way around the field thing, Moe
didn't see her in Eugene. Otto is she is coming back from
symptoms related to covid.
Yep. So she got over it just in. Time, to celebrate
her birthday. This week here
are beset and lamott who will share lane seven.
The set is from Australia, the mote from France.
- man in Lane. Number six, is the reigning world champion.
Nakai
27. She has been trying to for us here medalist. In the indoor
meet in Serbia,
Latoya. Cool of Jamaica will be in Lane 5. She made the final
finishing in eighth in Tokyo
Rosemary, almanza of Cuba
and Elena Bellow of Italy.
We'll get a very subdued reception, from a very partisan
crowd,
the UK had two finalists in The 800,
one of them got silver. And this was the other one.
Ricky, who was I said, was just off the podium in force. So
the 800 meters looking very good for Great Britain.
Nancy Butterworth from Canada
in the field of Lane. Number two,
and the African Junior champion from three years ago at 400
marah. Now, stepping up and she
will run the 800 as a pro.
So, we learn a lot about the fitness of the, young lady
here, that uniform given to her, by her sponsor. If you see
somebody in that uniform, it means that there are reigning
Olympic champion
to underway here in the women's 800 meters.
The mesha Poland on the outside, will try to win this
race to the back stretch and then move to the inside and try
to carry this group through the first 400 meters there.
Targeting
about 157 Auto, which will be the fastest time in the world
this year. The other youngster that we saw in Tokyo Keely
hodgkinson. Also, 20 years of age, ran 157, 72 without
a Thing mo in the race
at pre
and the pacemaker does not have to worry about who is going to
follow her because I think Moe has her eyes firmly.
On her shoulder blades and is doing a good job of getting
this race off to a good pace. And that's why we're already
strung out with less than allowed gone.
50 75 was the instructed Pace at the halfway mark, and
they're a second quicker to the Bell.
So, let's see.
Call that work that she's been doing in College Station has
been paying off for I think. Most this is where she usually
is, but she is not have the number of races this year in
her legs.
As she did at this point last year,
that could be a very good thing.
Or it could leave her vulnerable here as the world
champion Makai steps up into the conversation. She's not
when third mole continues to lead.
Love all of France is there in second with a half lap to go?
You just start to see The Parting of the sea between
a thing Moe and the rest of the field
as she will make the turn for home,
less than 100 meters to go. For the reigning Olympic champion
in her Diamond League. International debut,
celebrating her 20th birthday this week and we'll take the
Three and will do so in a world leading time
of 157 02.
All of the questions have been answered. A thing mole is ready
for the US Nationals where she will have to qualify despite
being the Olympic champion, but she is more than ready for
Eugene. And the rest of the world will sit up and take
notice
after a kind of up and down indoor season.
Including an aborted race.
Indoors at the Armory,
the Olympic champion, looking like the Olympic champion.
World-leading one 5701
the race for that golden Eugene. Looks like it's gonna
go through her again.
Well, I do it's not lost on me to is will see Allyson Felix on
this track later on just sort of The
Changing of the Guard here. So we said it earlier a thing was
three years old, when Allyson Felix made her first visit and
these
sort of debuts on the international stage. He
obviously did it in Tokyo, but now the crowds here in Europe
finally getting to see firsthand what we've been
talking about in the US since her days in high school.
She's such an immense talent and let's be honest
that race. Looked a lot like the race that she ran to win
the golden Tokyo.
She came off, delete the game, off the turn with a lead, but
she when she puts the hammer down in mind you she's not
putting the hammer down until about now and she gets her arms
up like this. Now. She's in full flight.
Nobody in the world
at least so far as had any response to this. This is
a good field. Remember the reigning world champion is in
this race and not even in the frame. I think more
dominant from Start to finish.
And you can see why fans broadcasters. Everybody
are excited for the return
of a thing mole to this event. She makes it a lot of fun to
watch and we always have to be
looking in the record books. Every time she races.
Caillou was third with 200 meters to go, when
most started to turn the screws ended up finishing intense. So
challenge here for everyone is if you're going to try to
attack the reigning gold medalist.
There's some wrist and some potential disaster. If you
can't match her stride for stride. So, a Thing mo makes
a triumphant debut in a row.
