I'm more disturbed and disappointed than impressed because it's obvious she's on the sauce. Guaranteed.
Why not just legalize the doping at this point? We are nearing tour de France level cheating because if ya can't beat em ya have to join em. Imagine knowing you'd beat someone on a level playing field but they're rolling you because they're doping. Pretty discouraging. So easy to pass these drug tests. Pro distance running is a circus. You can't expect a fair game.
So she's almost as fast as Abebe Bikila was and Frank Shorter might still beat her. There's only one thing that puts women today within the sphere of the great male runners of the past.
It sounds like her 10m time would have broken the womens 10m WR. She was flying...
For all their faults, the broadcasters did catch this. Ruth split sub-50!
No they completely f*ed this up to. The broadcasters were incompetent. They stated that it must of been the faster 10m ever run by a woman when it clearly wasn’t. See below:
Seeing some chatter about Chepngetich's 10-mile split of 49:49 being an unofficial world record.
There's no way it's the fastest 10-mile time we've ever seen. Letesenbet Gidey ran 62:52 for the half last year. Her 10-mile pace for the entire distance was 47:57.

When some people fail to succeed, they start looking for falsehoods and insinuations to discredit those who've already done it!
Steve the addict, Look for something more meaningful to do or say! You can also carry on with your addictions!!
The addiction is the sport to peds, and to fans who dream their supermen and superwomen don't take them.
Steve Jones ran 2:07:13, 1 second slower than the then world record in the marathon, by going out in 61:46 at halfway. That's only 32 seconds slower than his half marathon PR.
Ruth did something very similar yesterday.
According to your logic, Steve was also doped. You are calling Steve Jones a doper.

Glad we could clarify that.
No, I wasn't. You are. Steve Jones isn't a woman running times comparable to the best male runners of a previous generation. But that isn't to say he isn't doping, because it is right through the sport at the top level. Running will be no different in that regard from a sport like cycling and the T de F.

Your mistake is believing that "a previous generation", your generation, was the best/fastest there could ever be.

I don't believe that. But I don't believe that women today can naturally run as fast as they did on the same kind of training. The biggest improvements in performances in recent years - male or female - can be attributed to the spread of doping. There is no professional or elite sport without it.
Take a look at videos of the E Bloc women athletes competing in the 70's and 80's. We know now they were doped. Most were a fraction of the size and muscularity of today's athletes. Nor were they running the times of today's "clean" athletes. The preponderance of doping in sport is matched only by the refusal of fans to accept that reality.
