Gaz De France, St. Denis, France-Complete Results courtesy of IAAF

Gaz de France lived up to the hype. Jelimo in the 800 meters, running the second fastest time in world this year ( Solobodeva ran 1:54.82 next day), shows that the women’s 800 meters should be hot. Wariner and Merritt dual is making the 400 meters exciting and the race in Beijing will be one of the most anticipated events of the Games!
