Because I can’t sleep in Paris, you get more results pieces from around the globe. Nice opening at Stanford Invitational for some. Robert Cheserek surprised me. I thought he was a 28 minute 10k guy in his sleep. But, hopefully, Robert took some time off after indoor and is preparing for the big stuff. 


PALO ALTO (USA, Apr 4): Dutch running talent and last year European junior champion Jip Vastenburg won the women 10 000 m in her debut at the distance at Stanford Invitational with good 32:11.90.

Another solid women distance time in steeple, 9:48.17 by Briton Lennie Waite ahead of Rachel Johnson huge PB 9:49.31. Men 10 000 m was not that fast with Jason Witt 28:36.64 PB, but the depth was there, Edward Cheserek was 21st in 28:51.97 also PB. From shorter races to mention Jamaican Kemarley Brown 10.22 (+1.7) life-time best in the 100 m, Patrick Feeney 45.56 ahead of Christopher Giesting 45.62, for both personal bests in the 400 m and Kevin Craddock 13.78 (0.0) in the hurdles.

Nicely done @d9monti !

David Monti @d9monti

Was just at the bank & only 2 tellers were working. The man behind me was double-parked and getting really agitated about waiting. When it was my turn I let the man go ahead of me. His mood ...changed on a dime; he kept thanking me

Moments later the teller waived my transaction fee
