  1. I understand going to Stanford for the location, the weather, the education, running program, etc but to train with your beast of a brother at altitude with Mike Smith as your coach…

  2. i hope he runs the 10k. if he ran 2 finals in 2 days the 10k should be well within his capability being a week later. He deserves to go for the Hat-trick.

  3. Forget the 10k, Run the 5k at olympic trials and make the team. I hate the push up to 10k and Marathon so early, he's only 21. give him some years

  4. It’s been amazing to watch coach Smith bring Nico along. From when he would basically bark at the media to give the young athlete some space to grow on day one to this weekend where he is shaking his head at the outcome. Amazing.

  5. From zero championships to two over the course of two days is nothing short of amazing. Kid is ready for the olynpic trails.

  6. "When you're not confident, or you're really nervous, you're often times thinking about what's going to happen instead of what you're going to do. We try to bring our athletes to be focused on what they're going to do, what's in their control. When you grow confidence in what you're going to do, instead of whats going to happen, then you realized it's all inside you."
