Another Beijing medallist, Shalane Flanagan, was upset for the 10,000m title by her Beijing teammate, Amy Begley. Begley, who last year ran faster than her 5000m PB in the second half of the 10,000m to make the Olympic team, this year set a Hayward Field record of 31:22.69 to take down Flanagan (31:23.43).

"My husband gave me a new mantra this year," said Begley. "He said, just do it, don't think." Begley didn't hesitate when Flanagan took the lead with 200m remaining, covering the move immediately and slowly pulling away on the homestretch.
