Brian Sell (3rd place) though was awesome & fun to watch today at the
US Olympic Trials - he has a total "throw back" look with his fu man
chu moustache - He reminds you of Prefontaine with that look - it's a
look I've not seen in running since.
Hanson-Brooks makes it to Beijing. Brian pulled off a great strategy
for him - Hall lead from the start - Brian stayed for the most part
off the lead back way way back.....and just surged after the half-way
mark. Good to see a "regular guy" get a spot - the guy works at the
Local Home Depot where he lives and trains when he can.
My Count of the 20 in the Results?
Nike: 5 Runners
Hanson Brooks: 5 Runners
That's impressive in that context. And the Nike guys are from
California, Colorado, Oregon, (all over the place) - pros, the Hanson
guys? local & regional guys that run together.
