Tim Cheruiyot Skipping Bislett Games Dream Mile To Plant Potatoes

^ Insane.

And here's a recent quote from your fellow Kenyans:

"In light with the rampant doping cases in Kenya, Athletics Kenya in conjunction with the Ministry of Sports, Culture and the Arts and the Anti-Doping Agency of Kenya (ADAK), hereby invites the first group of elite athletes listed below to benefit from the Kenya Doctors Network Programme (KDN) to a meeting to discuss the plan and Anti-doping matters so as to eradicate the doping menace in our Country"

Your point? The number of cases at their peak between 2011 and 2016 was worrying and AK reacted accordingly. The KDN was set up to prevent athletes from visiting doctors who would unknowingly prescribe prohibited medication, an excuse many of the banned had used. Positives are now down to less than 3 or 4 a year even though Kiprop, Sumgong and Jeptoo have been high profile.

Letsrun is lucky Kenya is probably the most open country in world regarding this issue and virtually every transgression and scandal is publicised so you can read about it in the media and link dozens of articles. Notice that other than your own suspicions, you have nothing on Ethiopia, or any other country.

Back to the subject of this thread, I hope the potato planting break was good for Tim and he'll come back even better in July.

Haha, you're gonna love this one, the Brits to the rescue:

Taking a "potato planting break" will never be the same again.

Do you think the U.K. coach that was paying to be warned of tests while in Kenya will be adding his opinion?

Who knew a Kenyan runner doing everyday activities that make him happy would get people so riled? You can all relax now, he's back to training.

Meanwhile, Justus Soget is doing very well.

I don't even know what this guy's specialty is.

That kid can run anything, NativeSon. I just hope he isn't pushed to the roads to the roads to soon. The future of the 5k and 10k are also looking good with new talent like Stanley Waithaka and Rhonex.

They just want to continue training in the Rift Valley, that's why. Scottish highlands not good enough.

Are you referring to the 'Uk coach' who the Kenyan manager (Rotich) offered to warn in advance in return for money?

That guy didn't exist (as far as I can tell from the articles) - it was a sting operation and that's how he was exposed. Although of course it might suggest that Rotich had recieved money in a similar way in the past from British or foreign coaches.

You're kidding me?...Soget is managed by "thee" F. Rosa? Please say it ain't so....?

lolz

i cant remember but someone on this LR site kept mocking me saying rotich was old news and nothing would come of it and to not worry about it.

but seriously, subway, casual.....come on guys lets give up the fight...the brojos dont know what to believe....i mean the smartest most intelligent minds of the 21 century on the ins and outs of training, talent, superior human genetics and altitude....you know these guys: Renato, rekrunner, el k.....they say EPO and PEDs dont work and kenyans are just LIGHT YEARS better than everyone. its pretty simple actually. kenyans are sooooo much better than everyone, that everyone else should just quit. whites are slow, pasty, and mindweak. only paula and coe, who happen to be british are worthy of being in the sport, but even coe know is down the list and soon to be erased from our hearts and minds.

i get it el k, i get it rekrunner. you guys are so smart and only you know the truth of the universe. whites cant compete. so its simple. this isnt about EPO and PEDs etc....its about eliminating whites from the sport cause running is for kenyans only.

the one interesting thing though is this....running according to renato, rekrunner and el k is for kenyans ONLY....yet its those THREE white guys that are the only ones smart enough to dictate it. reminds me of the age ol belief that blacks are intellectually inferior and they need guidance and direction from the SMART white guy.

examples:

american football

white head coach, 95% black players

white quarterback for "smart" plays, black quarterback for highlight plays

basketball

white head coach, 99% black players

track and field

renato, rekrunner, el k, al sal

~95% or more black athletes in the top

good thing we have those guys to show the kenyans the way, they are like the Bill Belichick of distance running. hail to the most intelligent white guys on LR!!!

YEah. He needs to hang on on the track for a while. The guy can run 1500 and up.

Edward Zakayo too is very good. I think he's about 16.

This is one thing that should be fought relentlessly alongside corruption.

People need to go to jail.

Why, what's wrong with training in the Rift Valley, is there too much tea and potatoes?
