I swear people on letsrun find negative thing in everything. They keep on moving the goalposts. First it was that Fisher peaked out in high school, then that he wouldn't succeed as a pro, then that he would never become world-class. Now it's that he'll never win a world gold? Well great, there's a lot of legendary American distance runners who have never won a world gold.
Meh. Fisher is on the way up, Krop on the way down. Fisher is 2nd behind Jakob in Budapest
I have nothing against Fisher -- great performance from him. But why all the threads for the 2nd place 27 year old runner? What about the up-and-coming 21 year old 1st place runner?
Fisher is 25. This is an American website created by Americans and it has a mostly American following. That’s why there is so much attention here on someone running an American record.
Want to see more posts about Krop? Try Kenyan websites.

I told you all to watch out for Jacob Krop when as teenager in 2019 Jakob Ingebrigtsen had to dive to pip him to 4th at the worlds in Doha. He and Nicholas Kimeli have revived Kenyan 5000m running.
I try to think back when I was a young 20 year old. I may have been one of these contributors that write their empty thoughts. However, there wasn’t any internet to jot down the egotistical thoughts.
Go to others forums, and you might see the exact same behavior.

But Krop didn't progress as much Ingerbrigsten has progressed.
I could say the same thing for Kiplimo, even Barega stagnated after the age 20.
