No, just tired of people making excuses for athletes they don't know and blindly support.
8:00.14 for Kipruto, Koech second.
Ooh, just missed our first sub-8 min chase in the UK!
Who can beat Conseslus? When Kemboi took off on that astonishing sprint at the worlds, he's the only one who could respond and might have challenged hadn't he hit his toe on the barrier.
I say, take a break then go for the world record in Paris.
Another second off for Kipruto... Birech is burned out and Milne needs to retire.

Evan Jager if he runs like Monaco (and does not fall on the final barrier) can beat anybody, that said C. Kipruto is amazing, 21 years old and has already gone Under 8:10, 16 times, Jager is 26 or 27 and has only gone under 8:10, 7 times.
Why wasting real estate on the 1500 start line?
1:51.72 800m, Kiprop is the only one following rabbit.
3:29.35.
Rounded down to 3:29:33
Fabulous run from Kiprop! UK all comers rec
Haha... for those of you thinking Kiprop would be the GOAT.. I think El G ran 3:29 about 22 times. Kiprop is lacking in endurance. They went through 800m in 1:51.7, which is pretty perfect at this point in the season. Just can't hang.

Jager will never run like that again. His best years are behind him.
Iguider second, almost 4 seconds back and Willis third almost exactly 5 seconds after Kiprop.
3:29.25
If they even split that 1:51 I might tend to agree with you but they split a 54-57.

Birech is just hitting his stride. He was right there with Kipruto before he fell. The one who looks like they won't make the team is Kemboi.
Niyonsabe 1:56.92, then Lamote, Bishop.
