I mean I'm pretty sure coming in third at Millrose is kind of the equivalent of that... She ran the third fastest 3K indoor time in the US.. so in that event for the winter she was national class and world class
She s ranked 35 in the world 5k. And has been 25 to 35 since the winter. According to world athletics.
So yeah she may not be anywhere close to the top 10 in terms of time
but I don't know I think if you joker were in the top 35 in the world for like 6 months according to world Athletics that you would consider yourselves world class
Kipyegon is not even ranked. Does that mean she is not world class?
You obviously either don’t know what you’re talking about or you just can’t help yourself, and hate on one of the best female collegiate distance runners in the past decade. She is VERY MUCH TEAM ORIENTED. Have you not seen her at cross country meets, immediately turn around after she finished her race and congratulate her teammates as they finish theirs? Have you not also seen her flash the Wolfpack sign either right before or right after crossing the finish line in a race that she won? She has done quite a bit of winning in the past couple of years. Anyone who has even a minute amount of grey matter knows that she very much loves her team and her school. GO PACK!!!!
