Dibaba ran 3:50 with HORRIBLE pacing in an actual race. With pace lights she probly could have run 3:48, maybe faster. But it doesn't matter since she was so doped up. Def not a scrub tho compared to anyone

History has shown us if a person makes a global final, it is extremely likely they are doing something illegal. The medalists are a near certainty. WR holder, even more likely than that.

If Girma doesn’t start the last lap with a lead he deserves to lose.
YEAH!!!!! WAIT, WHAT?????
Wrong thread ha. But on Faith she is impossible to beat. She is the strongest, fastest and shiftiest. There is nobody on the women’s side historically comparable. On the men’s side Morceli for a time, but there were some guys on the extreme who were faster in an 800/5000. Did have the shifty part more than El Guerrouj. Credit to Jakob for improving in the shifty category this last year.
I bet if it was one of those slow white American women running these times you'd never mention anything about EPO. Just face it, some people are just better and faster naturally. Probably mad because you can't break 4:15 in a 1500.
She was never going to be beaten unless a fall. Bad strategy from Hassan, the pace wasn’t fast in the first 800 (2:12) and she left too much ground to cover in the last 500m off an already super fast pace (58). That made the difference between bronze and silver at the end.
Still, hats off. She came away with a m medal, not bad for somebody training in between the London and Chicago marathons. She’s one hell of an entertaining runner to watch!

You’re absolutely right. Her tactic was extremely wrong first of all right now Kipyegon is unbeatable in the 1500 anyone out there has zero chances at beating her it doesn’t matter what type of race d see low or fast. By running like 10-15m back at the bell-lap made things even more impossible. In the 5000m Kipyegon can be beaten because of the heat but if no one pushes for an honest pace again she will out-kick everyone easily.
