Conner Mantz 59:17, Kelati win a major?, Hoey AR, Kishane Thompson Sizzles, Quincy Wilson gets beat

Conner Mantz ran 59:17 to smash Ryan Hall's longstanding American record in the half marathon as Weini Kelati lowered her American record for the 2nd straight year in Houston.

What does this mean for Mantz? What other Americans impressed in Houston? Can Kelati win a World Marathon Major?

Josh Hoey's resurrection continued with him shattering the American record in the 1000m. 9 University of Washington milers went sub 4 led by Nathan Green. Kishane Thompson ran 6.58 into a big headwind and Quincy Wilson got beat by high schooler
