Not as weird as a white American male being the top 10000 meter runner. What could be weirder, Ryan Hall entering the Berlin Marathon and winning in 2:03?
Yes her sweat smells like mix of pot and Amstel beer
Dafne Schippers' ancestors are from the Rift Valley, Kenya.
How is she the best sprinter in the world when Nigerian Blessing Okaghare has
run 10.85 and has double Commonwealth gold against superior competition.
10.80 *Tori Bowie (US) Monaco DL 07/18
22.18 *Tori Bowie (US) Eugene DL 05/31
trumps Blessing's 10.85/22.23
so says

She is paler and Nordic....
Hmm , ok Dutch skaters cleaned up at winter Olympics , records and all.
Now a Dutch sprinter , let's wait on this one.
White sprinter winning= doping

Schippers ran both distances against a headwind in cold conditions. Running 22.03 against a headwind means she's the world best
And what a pleasant surprise.
For a change in this day and age, a pure bred and stunningly attractive, identifiably European athlete winning a gold at the European Championships.

Probably so. Certainly so?
Black sprinter winning = doping also probably true. But less certain
Just a amazing preformance!
Mabye possible that she can in the future break the European record.
21.71 by marita Koch from the DDR.
That record was probably set with doping aid.
Do believe that Dafne Schippers is clean.
I agree, I also think she's clean. Dafne is a heptathlete and a lot of the best multi-eventers have one event they are world-class in; for Jessica Ennis it's the 100m hurdles (12.54), for Katarina Johnson-Thompson it's the long jump (6.92m), Dafne's best event just happens to be the sprints. Heptathletes are really strong and the training she does for all the different events might actually benefit her in the sprints. She's run 2:08 for 800m and 22.03 for 200m so I'd really like to see what she might do over the 400m also. I really hope she decides to stick with the sprints because although she's a world championships medalist in the heptathlon, she'll only ever be battling for silver and bronze, especially considering her PB in the high jump is only 1.80m.
There is no doubt she can run. That was outstanding. However, whether she can f^^^ so well, like my friend Artemisia, well that's another question entirely.

false, there are far more elite white male distance runners than there are elite white female sprinters
