So Ayana could have jumped off the track pretty much at any point in this race, gone to the bathroom, pissed, washed her hands, gotten back on the track and still win the gold. Amazing!!
You must be single. She didn't win with 20 minutes.

On the other hand, if it was Semanya .....:-)

14:25 last 5k for Ayana after a 15:51 first 5k. Ridiculous. She should go after the 5k world record after Worlds.
She should - if you think about it her 2nd 5K was similar to Bekele's 12:57 to finish off his race.

Though I am very happy with Almaz's performance, I must say that reading the latest Guardian article on EPO in Ethiopia and how incredible Almaz's run was compared to the others, I just can't trust this 100%. Sad, because she might just be that much better than the rest, and I really want to believe that, but now I can't even support my countrymen and countrywomen with a clean conscious. Hope the Ethiopian Athletic federation will clean up the scene soon.
Jos Hermens is behind most of it
He signs up the top ethiopians and refers them to various doctors in his doping network
It's business .Peds make a big difference financially

It's a hell of a lot cooler than most of our names.
Now can we move on from him, KJT, and Khalifa St Fort? Lots of hype and so far....

Looking at these stats, I really hope Ayana is clean, but she is defiantly suspicions. shes more dominant then Wang, and you know that story
Manayoga, wow, so happy for him. What a story.
Exciting long jump competition.
Lawson missed winning on his last jump by 4 cm.
Manyonga 8.48
Lawson 8.44
Lawson's series was the best of the day: 8.37, 8.43, 8.40, 8.11. 8.31, 8.44

I call it blatantly shady.
You aren't the only one.
When Jonathan Gault asked her, if given Ethiopia's track record of less than stringent anti-doping in terms of out of competition testing, if she was suspicious of the results, she replied. "I mean yeah, I feel like they get away with a lot to be honest. Everyone talks about Russia and Kenya and they've kind of cracked down on them so maybe they'll be the next country to get stricter regulations and testing. Unfortunatley, nowadays, you always have to question the world record but who really knows."
https://youtu.be/USxLyYscbDg?t=1m42sOh thought IAAF arranged a naked run. But the guards took him down
She doesn't race all year then shows up at Worlds and blows the socks off everyone, lapping all but 3 people? Definitely suspicious but it's all pure conjecture at this point.
Prediction time
1 Bolt 9.85
2 Coleman 9.88
3 Blake 9.95
Has there ever been an athlete as cool under pressure as Bolt?

plenty. he false started at the World Championship the year they invented the rule where a false start earns an ejection.
Glad Ato corrected himself and admitted people were booing gatlin because of his doping.

Ah, something ain't right here.
And the something is what's coursing through her body.
Just not right.
Bolt loses? :(
Hope it's Coleman, not Gatlin!
Suck it, Limeys! Gatlin FTMFW! Quit your booing.
