Was this the same Freddy Ovett kicked off the Oregon team for lying about his PBs?
LRC note. We added in the (Steve Ovett's son) part to the title as not mentioning that in the title was borderline misinformation.

Surprised he only ran 3:59 1500m. Would think at the least that would be his mile Pb. Guess he didn’t get all of the genes
dont think his pbs on World Athletics are accurate. Believe he has a 1.50 800m pb
A former NCAA runner at Oregon turned cyclist ran a 69 min half? Wow....
A former Grand Tour winner ran 70.04 min in the Amsterdam half marathon two weeks ago:

I tend to think 800/1500 type runners are the runners most suited for cycling because they have a bit more power than the Bekele/Kipchoge endurance types, so I'm not surprised that someone with some of Steve Ovett's middle-distance genes can run a solid half and also make a living in cycling.
Mike Woods the best example
Impressive, especially as Borzakovskiy must surely be around 42 now.
