As were both 5ks. Man, I hope some scandal brings Coe and his mafia down.
Any negative spin in Kenyan Press?
They have Televisions in Kenya?
?
Makes El Keniano's imagination really run wild.
My Kenyan friends and Kenyan girlfriend are overcome with pride today and deservedly so.
I’m happy for them.

Huh? You've obviously never been to Kenya. It's far from being a sh!thole. Truly an incredible place. Get out of Nairobi, and the majority of the people are overwhelmingly kind.

You're a complete idiot Dave.
Coe has failed to suspend Kenya despite the appalling doping record (two more in the last week) and corruption endemic in Kenyan athletics from top to bottom. He's promised 'to look at' the recent ZDF documentary while at the same time publicly expressing his hope that Nairobi will stage the 2025 World Championships. He's the best friend Kenya could hope to have in the IAAF.
But hey - he's white (well 3/4 white) and British, so no matter what he does he is the anti-Christ in your eyes.
Marathon not being a track event doesn't seem to have harmed its popularity btw. Maybe it would be better for 5 and 10K if they were kept on the road, and perhaps even turned into road events at the Olympics.
A better shot of the Eldoret crowd.

I’m Algerian living in Oran . Unlike you whites with jungle fever, I’ve been to Kenya and Ethiopia. I know the condition there. Hence my above.
I realize when you get your $9 latte every morning, it is easy to assume we all live in similar conditions worldwide.

Honestly, what’s your damage? Assuming the ZDF story is true (most are admitting they got duped, btw) the “athletes” in the video would get banned since it isn’t a Russia style situation where the country is actually responsible for doping them. Either way, you go home devastated.

Then you’d know conditions vary within Kenya and which actually is starkly different from Ethiopia. Pity you’re from the same country as Makh, the only Algerian who matters. He was loved in Iten, no one had a bad word to say about him.

A doctor claimed in the video he was doping eight of the Kenyan team for Doha with EPO. Assuming all of them were distance runners, that would represent about half of the Kenyan distance team being doped by just one doctor.
If that video is true, then it would be a disgrace for Kenya to remain unsuspended from competition.
People here have a go at Coe over his defence of NOP, but his defence of Kenya is far more troublesome.

Hahahah, 'whites with jungle fever'. Pretty much sums up El K.
I don't understand why there would be a big crowd making a fuss about a science experiment. Do they follow scientific achievements and advances in discoveries and technology. I thought yesterday was boring. Maybe I missed something? Was a new alternative to penicillen discovered yesterday? Was a megaladon found? Did we discover a new element or planet or life on Europa? Was Navier Stokes solved or the beginning and edge of the universe? Did we discover a new fossil fuel or solve world piece? I'm sure the answer is no to all of these.

Africans aren't smartest creatures . They aren't even smart enough to make money off their own gold, silver, tin, copper, steel or whatever, let alone everything else.

I’ll tell you exactly what happened. ZDF paid “informants” for what they thought would be a sensational scoop on the eve of the Worlds only to be gamed by a bunch of very smart conmen who forged a letter, pocketed the easy loot and made ZDF looking stupid presenting forged documents as evidence. The IAAF has seen the raw video, do you honestly think they’d let someone caught on video compete on their biggest showcase?
Fun to see the way he galvanizes crowds from Eldoret to Nairobi to Wien. He is becoming a transcendent figure.

He really has. Without expensive PR.
Nobody wants to talk about this...
