WTF: TIRUNESH DIBABA 14:50- 5000m did she really run the last 1000m in 2:39.71? 6/9/2012 8:28PM Reply | Return to Index | Report Post
Was at work and didn't see the race, did she really run the last 1000m in 2:39.7? She is back and maybe the women's 5000m WR will finally THREATEN sub 14 later this year. Even though it's just the last 1000m that's sub 13:20 pace and surely an great indicator she can threaten her current 14:11 WR for the full 5000m!

Truly amazing. Even before today I've been wondering when will Tirunesh "Babyface Destroyer" Dibaba run an open 1500m? If she ever gets in a quality 1500m field with great pacing 3:55 is within her ability this year. Would love to see her go balls to the wall in a 800m, 1500m, 5000m, or 10000m this year!

Vipam- in your face.. Don't think i forgot all the trash you talked about viv chariyot thrashing the ethiopians. Dibs is back and don't come on here talkin about your love or admiration of dibs. Her fans know you talk sh it and you will eat those words. Even messy will catch vc

Such a phony performance. Watching her run is like watching the East Germans of the 1980s or Chinese of the 1990s. Fast times but totally illegitimate.

Juvenile go rest your nerves. Look up the post I started over 3 years ago, saying that Vivian could kick with the Ethiopians even Meseret Defar but POINTED OUT Tirunesh was still the best kicker. I also stated that Vivian could possibly beat Tirunesh but NOT on a regular basis.

Get it right next time before you go off and stick your foot in your mouth!
