The thing in Faiths favour is that she’s never had a pacer like this before. She typically has to lead for at least the last lap, often longer.
So I think she’ll make a massive improvement, being able to shut off and be led for 1450m
Someone like Jess Hull who may also be a part of this, basically has had a pacer in Faith in every big race - so it’s hard to see an enormous improvement
I can’t see Faith getting this - but I can’t wait to see her try!

. If he physically assaulted her I can only assume he's gonna potentially face being ostracized from the sport, especially since he has a domestic violence charge against his name.
So athletics aren't like NZ Rugby then and he wont be instantly promoted to the athletics version of the All Blacks?

I watched it. So noticeable how much harder she was working than the pacers. Not often you see middle distance men and women running together. Good on her for having a crack, but it’s going to be a fair while before any feeble goes under 4mins
