You guys obsessed with final 100m times are following the wrong event.
yes, it should be more about the last 400m or even 600m.
Btw, a bit off-topic, but one thing about Centro's triumph in Rio not being luck was that the last 700m was on 1:44 800m pace. It wasn't even about the 50s last lap. It's a 700m race following 2 laps of threshold pace.

That is a really interesting fact I hadn't heard before. Thanks for sharing!

So what? It still wasn't a 1,500m race. Do you believe Centro would have won if it was a 1,500m race?

He also didn’t have the fastest last 400m. Makhloufi did. Centro won through superior positioning, similar to how Nuguse beat Cheruiyot last weekend.
