Kips does not have the mind for such a feat. Why even consider it?

You nailed it.
Yeah, I agree that his mind isn't just the kind of mind that would break world records....he just doesn't have the kind of mind for such a feat. Maybe if he had a different mind...who knows?
not at all. He should not be going out in 53 or, as here, very low 54. Kiplagat lay a bit off the pace, according to the announcers, and that was the difference--he closed in low 54. Kiprop was barely over 3:28--that's a terrific race for someone who was out a bit too fast and didn't have much at the very end.
Kiprop just needs to make more than one attempt this year.
Terrible post. Is this translated from another language or are you unable to express yourself due to stupidity?
No, the issue lies mainly in his brain. Asbel lacks the aspects of brain necessary to achieve a sub 3:27 clocking.
OP made POD.

No, it is more of an issue with his mind...
If he were hypnotized by a mind control person he could do it.
I'm not going to say I agree with the post, but Kiprop has proven to not be a very "smart" racer, whereas El G, Morceli, Lagat, were/are all VERY smart racers. Every time I watch Kiprop race he reminds of a high school freshman for some reason, even though he's running much faster.
Regardless, he ran 3:27 last year off of pretty poor pacing. I would argue had he been more even and had someone near him the last lap he would have run 3:26 mid-high in that race.
It honestly shocks me to see anyone running 3:28 or faster, let alone so many under 3:30 in one race. That is near superhuman ability.
RIP: D3 All-American Frank Csorba - who ran 13:56 in March - dead
RENATO can you talk about the preparation of Emile Cairess 2:06
Running for Bowerman Track Club used to be cool now its embarrassing
Hats off to my dad. He just ran a 1:42 Half Marathon and turns 75 in 2 months!
Great interview with Steve Cram - says Jakob has no chance of WRs this year
Rest in Peace Adrian Lehmann - 2:11 Swiss marathoner. Dies of heart attack.
