Struggling to make sense of the Paris 1500m (which was not even a DL race).

-31-year-old Frenchman runs 3:27
-18-year-old Kenyan runs 3:27
-Mills faster than every Brit ever except Kerr
-Festus Lagat, former 800m specialist at Iowa State, runs 3:29.03

Craziness.

Terrific 800 at the Track Night NYC. Festus Lagat wins it in 1:45.02, high schooler Cade Flatt runs 1:46.51 for 4th -- the fastest time for a US high schooler in 26 years and just .06 behind Michael Granville's US HS record.
