Gjert Ingebrigtsens latest Instagram post "OOPS I DID IT AGAIN"

Gjert? More like GOAT

Henrik and Philip should be in their prime right now but they got spooked by anti doping authorities and their "likely doping" non-disclosed label that ended up being leaked. Three top level bros from the same family, whats the odds, right? Now Nordas comes out of absolutely nowhere and is a world beater. Too good to be true.

Jakob's quest to vanquish the pretender and win back his father's Love is like something out of a Greek epic. It's incredible.

Imagine what Gjert will write (or say) if Narve takes the gold? xD

Probably: Veni, vidi, vici !

the fathers a control freak megalomaniac drug coach.

I basically agree with this, except it’s not surprising that at 30 and 32 Filip and Henrik are past their primes. They both went KERSPLAT as soon as Jakob truly ascended, though, apart from a few few half decent efforts between the two.

Jakob’s results this year have been ridiculous. Anyone who writes athletes off as dopers for being too dominant in a drug-plagued sport has to do the same for Jakob. And then Nordas’s massive jump under Gjert this year is the real kicker that makes their doping painfully clear, but the poster(s) who refer to Nuguse as “Nujuicy” for his (far less surprising) improvement turn a blind eye to Nordas for reasons not worth mentioning. Salazar Sauce has nothing on the Gjert Gogurt.

Norwegians are just genetically superior. They come from one of two tribes. Born at altitude. They have such a poor country that running is the only option. They are forced to run to and from school 10 miles each way on dirt roads. The schools are so bad that they have no concept of time. It is no wonder they are so dominant. They are literally born to run.

You and Steve Addict both have no idea what you're talking about, since Henrik just set his lifetime 5k PR on 05/27/23.

Also, somehow Steve Addict posts the absolute worst take or most vilgar disagreeable comment in every thread I open on this site.

Yeah and I guess Jakob and also Nuguse are doping as well as all other athletes 🤣

If he was in Newbury Park, it would just be said that he “got lucky with two very talented families” in a town of 80,000.

Go educate yourself on the matter, then come back when your homework is done.

I would not have tabbed Gjert as a huge Britney Spears fan. Slay, girl!

Yes, he does post some of the absolute worst comments on this site. However, in this case, he's pretty much correct.

Most assume he means coached a guy to the world championship final.

Also Narve Nordas admits his relationship with Jakob Ingebrigtsen is "non-existent"
"It's non-existent, that's how it is," Gilje Nordås told VG.

Gjert Ingebrigtsen med kryptisk melding før VM-finalen

BUDAPEST (VG) Gjert Ingebrigtsen (57) deler kryptisk melding på Instagram to dager før onsdagens finale på 1500 meter.

Also I found an article where Ingebrigtsen talks about his tacitcs from the semis but the translation isn't great.

- I feel I have pretty good control. It is quite easy to decide to lie on the inside and take the hatches that come than to have to walk around. I think it answered well. I had a pretty good ride in the first part of the race, but you never know how to respond, Ingebrigtsen told the press.

– Jeg føler jeg har ganske god kontroll. Det er ganske lett å bestemme seg om å ligge på innsiden og ta de lukene som kommer enn å måtte gå rundt. Jeg synes det svarte bra. Jeg fikk en ganske bra reise første del av løpet, men man vet aldri hvordan man responderer, sa Ingebrigtsen til skrivende presse.

He said he gestured to the crowd as they were asleep and he wanted to wake them up for the Hungarian athletes later in the night.

Jakob og Narve til VM-finale: – Hadde vært fint om Gjert kunne vist dem fingeren litt

so then it's not cryptic, now is it?

It's funny to observe the doping speculation when it's not really that hard to explain at least some of the reasons why Norwegians are doing relatively well at athletics. Privilege is definitely a factor - to have time, money and energy/excellent health to train in a society that highly respects investing your time in sports and being outdoors. As a teen you can attend a sports focused high school while your parents support you financially. Maybe you have a treadmill in your basement or a mountain in your backyard.

Around 8 years ago I watched an FIS Nordic ski event, I think in Norway, but full of Norwegian skiers at least. An individual-start distance. At the start, a giant sign was set up with a no-doping pledge on it. Each skier, as they started, stopped and signed their name to the solemn vow before continuing on the race.

This proved that the federation and athletes were very serious about making fools of the viewers.

No, I was aware of that small 5k PB as I follow the sport pretty closely, but I was characterizing it as “one of a few half-decent efforts” compared with his previous 3:31.xx peak, Filip’s 3:30.01 and of course Jakob’s ridiculousness. And for every 13:13 5k or 3:53 mile those two might post, they DNF twice and lay a few fat eggs.

I normally don’t care for Steve the Addict’s schtick but when someone’s right, they’re right.

“Oops I did it again!”

I knew someone who would say this when they crapped their pants. So let us not assume anything here. I hope Gjert is OK.
