Who gives a s#!t? He is the most obviously doped cheater ever. When he finally gets caught you people are going to feel stupid, as you should. Hell why not predict a 52:30? Why the heck not? There seems to be no limit to what Super Doped can do when he isn’t at a global track championship. And you smiling dufuses will all clap your hands like the ignoramuses you are. Truly pathetic.
Him and Cheptegai are amongst the dirtiest on the circuit. Have been for a while. Easy to not get caught, unfortunately. Only the dumb and/or careless get popped.
After Schumacher's group, right? And Salazar's group, right?
(If we're talking about actual evidence and bans.)
He has been an underachiever on the track, yes. But his HM time progression, along with his XC dominance, is a totally coherent sustained improvement IMO. He clocked 57:31 five years ago when he was 20.
Oh ho my God. It’s really such a surprise that he was cheating at 20? The denial and mental gymnastics you people exhibit is astonishing. It’s like you just won’t allow yourself to see the obvious when it’s staring you plainly in the face.
It would be nice if he's facing some sub-59 guys at least, but I suspect this will be a pretty solo run.
Attached below. A lot of depth in the men's race. Nicholas Kipkorir and Gilbert Kiprotich next fastest. Stanley Waithaka and Maxime Chaumeton interesting debuts as sub 27 10k guys as well as Kiplimo's brother Oscar Chelimo in there. Not sure about the pacemakers listed tbh, maybe someone in the field is actually pacing too

If we’re talking about actual bans:
As far as I know, only one person from those two groups has ever come up positive. You can contrast that to two from Bernard Ouma’s group in Kenya, two from Addy Ruiter’s group in Uganda (Cheptegei’s group), and two from Sang’s group in kaptagat.
He could have been doping since… 18, if not earlier, and the IAAF could be rotten to the core. How could I know? Though it would be odd that they suspended athletes like Rhonex (a much bigger name at the time) or Asbel (the only athlete since Lagat who looked like he might have a shot at breaking 3:26). And that they did not ratify his Barcelona WR because of a strict enforcement of the rules.
Another possibility is that super shoes allow for higher-volume, higher-intensity training, while also improving efficiency in the race itself. That the half marathon is drawing much greater interest, and Tadese’s WR was not equalized to those in the other distances. And that Kiplimo is a generational talent.
There are plenty of reasons to criticize this sport’s management. And one of them is that, since 2020, Kiplimo has virtually soloed all of his half marathons. Is it really too much to ask that the best half marathoner in history get the best possible pacer at least ONCE?

about time to interview the disgraced robertson twin, who was busted.
he knows.
i think he was going broke running clean, while amongst the ped users.
and got busted, between a rock and hard place, and the noble move to go all in to running and go to kenya, blew up in his face.
Gault could do this interview, to understand the athletes circumatances.
here on letsrun, athletes, expecially women, that are around 15 minutes 14 high in the 5000m types, legit, run against dopers, and take a lot of flack for their so called lack or progress,
on top of losing to ped users, you get a kick in the face from the audience, adding insult to injury.
the audience described above is far worse than the ped user.

Do you have any proof of this or are you just talking crap?
