The way she runs flailing around it looks like she is slipping on ice or something. Amazing to me she runs that fast with that form. Alberto's head would explode.
Alberto's own form was "worse" than anyone's but probebly the best for him.
Eilish looks like a newborn giraffe running for the first time. But her body is so unusual that it's probably the best way she can run.

Perhaps she is a doper as you claim but she has been working really hard for a long time. I am glad to see she finally really broke through. Lots of injuries and setbacks, like someone broke into her home and stole her medals in 2019. I hope she is clean... We shall see.
14.28 = clean,but 14.23 = dirty?
Explain that one to me?
Home training for Eilish during Covid. She may look very skinny but she’s actually got pretty good core strength. Super Scottish accent. ASICS sponsored, like Wanders, Moen, Katir, Bour, and a few others. Go ASICS Metaspeed. She has an atypical physique but maybe that physique is actually her advantage. She looks taller than she actually is because she’s obviously racing against tiny people who are like 5 feet and 100 pounds.

Don’t think she can handle volume. She has had lots of injuries in the past. I believe she does a lot of cross training on the elliptical and concentrates on quality running. Seems to be working so doubt she will change approach and do lots of volumes.
She’s skinny but she’s actually pretty strong in the core. She looks huge next to most girls that she races against because let’s face it most of those girls are tiny at around 5 feet and 100 pounds. Her height and weight, 176/53 kg which is around 5.9/117 (ironically the same height as Paula Radcliffe). ASICS sponsored, like Moen, Wanders, Katir, Bour, and others. Go ASICS Metaspeed .
Sorry for the double post in error. My bad. Anyway, she’s a great runner and I wish her the best for Tokyo main concern being her last lap. Always a challenge for people with super long legs like her and the male runner Kejelcha to change the cadence when the sprint winds up.
There's some great running genes in the family!

That’s burrito territory. Sub-14:30
Or maybe the burrito runs arent as impressive as we thought given they are still well off the WR. Granted 1 of them was in old shoes....
1430 isn't really that shocking of a time for a somewhere around 4:00-405 1500m runner who is strength based. It's that next step where you get into the really questionable land.
It will be interesting to see if in another 2 years if times plateau a bit as everyone gets in a bunch of races in superspikes or if we keep seeing improvements.
It's not so much the time in itself as it's a big jump from the 1440s and 1450s she had been running before the 1428 just now. Yes, she's been a consistent 402, 403 at 1500, but this 5000 performance came out of nowhere.

She ran 30:58 for 10k in February. Ever since then, I thought she had the 5k national record on her mind. In Oslo, she got into the perfect race for it - a grade A talent in Obiri to front-run, and wavelights set for 14:30 pace. The progression since she stepped up in distance has been good, but not abnormal. She has no finishing kick but she can still compete well with every non-African in Tokyo

She always sticks her nose in it and puts it all on the line. Cool to see her get rewarded.
Yep. She buries herself.
What a great run for her. I admire an athlete who gives it all. No matter how much all is.
Go to 5:29” in the video - her form looks better under controlled conditions on the track
No Farah was doping
CO was doping
Chambers was doping
Christie was doping
That hurdler Edwards and the 800m runner doping. Claimed suppliments tainted by offering their own samples!
You can usually tell something is wrong just by performance Wiggo snc Froome both won tour
I reckon our latest female sprint star is at it. But no dodgy coach like the EA record holders. You need something but her appearance has changed s lot.
But we are interested in distance running and do not have 70 plus elites busted in the past few years.. Nor do we have half our best ever sprinters with doping bans like America
Doesnt she live and train in USA these days?at least much of the time.that should tell you all you need to know.

what is she doing?
She ‘keeps it real’ on social media (in a less patronising way than many other athletes). Seems to work hard. All the best to her!!
Not very nice that someone posted her private pics and videos online. I can only imagine the press this story would be getting if she was an American and ran for Bowerman TC.
