Facts are racist. Accusing people of color of doping means you are racist. To question the status quo is also racist.

Fvck off, Coevett replying to Coevett.

To coach my marathoner Sammy Nyokaye to his first sub 2 :10 marathon.

To coach my 800/1500m runner Wisner Kiprotich to a sub 1:45 800m ( PR 1:47 )

I wasn’t calling Coevett racist because of his doping accusations. I agree with a lot of the stuff he says in regards to that. I was referring to his 2019 goals thread. His primary goal is to cheer for young “non-African” runners. I wish that I was joking. It was so racist that I didn’t even feel comfortable responding. Thus, a new thread.

That's ridiculous. Distance running has been absolutely dominated by Africa for decades and I express an enthusiasm for the fact that there might be some non-African talent emerging to challenge the status quo, and hence turn it into a truly global sport again, and that makes me a racist? I'm sure there are plenty of even Kenyan track fans who would like to see a resurgence of middle and long-distance running in the rest of the world for a more exciting sport.

As it happens I'm very much looking forward to seeing if Tim can win a major championships, and would be happy to see him do so. Assuming his clean, of course, which the new WADA lab and drug testing rules for Kenyan athletes will give far greater reason to make such an assumption.

Had you said anything resembling this in your initial post, it wouldn’t have been racist at all. Good justification. Now try to do that the first time.
