Stars from the USA, Canada and Australia head for the line

Leads changed and the pace was pushed late in the race as the lead pack challenged each other for the win and to get under the 15 minute barrier.

Hull is such a class act! What a great representative for a country. She's typically on her feet shortly after any race and congratulating the other runners. She's great

[@slothypunk]

Congratulating other athletes for what? All of them lose! There's nothing to congratulate... Maybe to say hi and good job?

[@nicolelaguardia7560]

@@slothypunk I wonder... what could be a synonym for the phrase "good job"... 🤔

[@slothypunk]

@@nicolelaguardia7560 there's nothing... Congratulating for losing isn't a good job! Like I took the test and barely pass it... Maybe thanks for trying?

[@Paremata]

If you can run sub 5 minutes for 5k then you are winner not a loser. Yes, they try to be the first to cross the line but once it's over it's, it's over and just like the commentator said -- You use yesterday's news to throw away the fish.

[@aaronpreddy35]

Perfect race by Jess. Looked smooth and controlled the entire way.

[@bubudubu]

"69 seconds through the quarter here so the pace is... right where it should be 😏"

[@ericbrown1223]

Jess Hull....incredible race!

[@Han-uz1tl]

Now, that is what I call ‘competitive’! Excellent job, ladies-laying it all down on the line. 🥳

[@Paremata]

Nice to see them break the 15 barrier. Great Race.

[@syrthdr09sybr34]

We need more runners that are confident in what they can do, and are not afraid of being challenged.

[@madmusicman5921]

Aussie, Canuck, Canuck. When you increase the pace it is “ratchet up” not “ratchet down” the pace. Great race, good camera work.

[@kaismithley6173]

ratchet down makes more sense

[@dipankardhar1272]

Is that girl with the helium sounding voice going to be there

[@debbiramsey4603]

Terrific run

[@caseyconrad720]

Go Jessica!!!

[@blumie006]

Go Aussie

[@gregjames9875]

Hull always looks surprised she is allowed to run.

[@jimoconnor8597]

Some Olympic hopefuls....

[@gustav1405]

Letsgoooooo

[@alberthaust4542]

Why do they have to play that music at the meet? Do the meet promoters believe it is boring to watch a 5k race? If so, perhaps they should find something else to do?

[@UndertheSun2view]

Usually for the athletes I believe

[@keithblain8763]

Do not see any New Balance athletes.

[@katwatson007]

3rd place Julie-Ann

[@brucecarey1780]

Isnt the world record 14.01 and change? !5.00 wont cut it for a chance at the olympics.!

[@Thespiansewist]

Jess is really great but watch out for African Women they are the medal contenders

[@slothypunk]

Jess hull don't qualify for Olympic isn't it?

[@jayden8350]

She qualified by running in Australia

[@mlp-kp5pq]

Mmnnñ

[@8gomerpyle22]

Why do these highly trained female runners wear those bikini bottoms? It's NOT a good look.

[@anneboucher6651]

They’re world-class athletes and are wearing what they need to wear to run the race well. I’m sure they don’t give a crap about whether or not you think it’s a “good look” lmao
