The video above is courtesy of Runnerspace.com, and shows Jenny Barringer on her last stretch run, nearly catching Geleta Burka of Ethiopia, 3:59.89 to 3:59.90. For the nationals, Jenny Barringer was planning to run the 5,000m/steeple at the US champs, in Eugene, Oregon, June 25-28. . Anna Willard, who finished fourth in the 1,500 meters, is planning to double at the US champs in the steeple and 1,500 meters. Should be some amazing races!
