Mark Pearce's personal best is 8:25.00 so he is surely going to beat that at least.
He and Zak Seddon hear the bell as they cross in 7:19.24.

Mark Pearce's personal best is 8:25.00 so he is surely going to beat that at least.
He and Zak Seddon hear the bell as they cross in 7:19.24.
Pearce and Seddon are half a second off Olympics pace with two laps to go. Pearce is really starting to gasp for air and Norman has fallen back.
Pearce is looking to get inside the 8:22.00 Olympic qualifying time.
He's still leading from the front in a fast race. Zak Seddon is looking for a time too close behind, while Phil Norma already has that qualifying mark and is third. He'd need to finish in the top two to guarantee himself a place in Tokyo.
As they complete the first kilometre Will Battershill drops back and leaves Mark Pearce to it at the front.
Will Battershill is pushing the pace early on, with Mark Pearce chasing. Battershill's season's best is one of the slowest in this group so he may be acting as a pacemaker here.
Here we go. It's a warm day for a steeplechase... Although not as warm as it will be in Tokyo.
Before those 200m finals, the men's 3,000m steeplechase is next up on the track.
Phil Norman already has the qualifying mark so can secure Tokyo selection with a top two finish.
Mark Pearce and Zak Seddon both have a chance of reaching the 8:22.00 time needed, as does Jamaine Coleman.

What might have been.
Yesterday evening Dina Asher-Smith was celebrating smashing her 10.83-second British record...
...for all of a minute.
Her 100m win was initially clocked at 10.71 seconds, a time which would make her the sixth-fastest woman of all time.
It was readjusted though to 10.97 - a massive margin of error, more than a quarter of a second - to groans around the stands.
Asher-Smith, the 200m world champion, won't be competing over the longer distance today.
Athletes who want to double up can opt to do only one event and ask the selectors to consider them for their second without competing in the trials. They won't take much time discussing Asher-Smith's credentials for inclusion in Team GB's 200m selection.
The 200m finals will begin in half an hour.
We'll start with the men's first, followed by the women. There will be one athlete missing, you might have heard of her.
Katie Stainton has returned from a knee injury to compete in - and win - the heptathlon, but said in her on-track interview there is still room for improvement.
"It's not where I want to be but I've finished a hep[tathlon]," she explained.
"There's not an event I'm happy with, but it's a stepping stone."
Pole-vaulter Harry Coppell was one of the stars of last year's British Championships, setting a national record of 5.85m to surpass the Olympic qualifying mark.
He's just opened his arms out to the crowd in celebration after clearing 5.70m. We'll see if he decides to go any higher...
Katarina Johnson-Thompson has been a notable omission in the heptathlon this weekend.
The 28-year-old pulled out of the event with an Achilles tendon problem which has kept her out of competition all year and disrupted her Olympic preparation.
Katie Stainton has just finished off the event with an impressive 800m performance to win at a canter.
The day's track action is nearing its end, here is what is still to come:
16:15 Men's 3000m steeplechase
16:35 Men's 200m
16:46 Women's 200m
So here are the final times for the women's 5,000m top three. Jessica Judd and Amy-Eloise Markovc are going to Tokyo because they already had the 15:10.00 qualifying time.
Jessica Judd 15:10.02
Amy-Eloise Markovc 15:10.54
Verity Ockenden 15:12.24
Jessica Judd understandably crouches over her knees, then falls forward onto the floor and eventually rests on her back.
She really pushed it on that final lap. Have a rest Jess.
Verity Ockenden gives chase as Amy-Eloise Markovc falls back, but Jess Judd comes into the back straight in the lead.
She's going to do this...
Jess Judd has gone early, this is going to be a painful 300m but she has a good gap.
Verity Ockenden fancies a go now too, but Jess Judd kicks ahead again as they take the bell.
Jess Judd has made her move, taking the lead off Amy-Eloise Markovc for the first time.
500m to go...
One kilometre to go.
Jess Judd looks like she is working a little harder to keep up with leader Amy-Eloise Markovc, who still looks cool as a cucumber.
Verity Ockenden is the only other athlete in the leading group.
