Literally zero reason to argue with this tw#t. He will find a way to disagree and insult you regardless of what you write. Every reasonable person understands what you’re saying and agrees with you. Best to leave the old man to his bitterness.
Through this thread, I have come to appreciate your position and must agree.
While I enjoy a spirited debate and hypothetical discussion, it must be rooted in some common sense, and the parties should be honest brokers.
When one side continuously makes personal jabs and misrepresents the other side, and ignores areas of commonality and agreement for the sake of dragging the discussion into the mud, it’s time to move on from either the discussion or at least from addressing that person.
Offer that same $100 million dollars to any group of 100 women who can break the 100x1 mile relay record.
That record was set in June of 2023, at an average of 5:35 per mile. It had stood for 24 years, not because it was a hard record to beat, but because almost nobody tried to break it. When a group tried, they succeeded.
For $100 million to the first team that breaks that record, it would be gone in a week, at most. If the money goes to the FIRST team that breaks the record, it will be broken in a day or two, in spite of the logistical headaches. Why? Far fewer people have pursued it and there is less reward for doing so, and as a result it is comparatively soft.
If many people pursue something in earnest, it is likely the best person will be better than if very few pursue it. That's Stats 101. Avatar: The Way of Water

However, on that point regarding "softness" I asked you what number of participants are required to show that an event is "soft" and what is their critical mass that means it isn't. You don't answer that. You can't. In any case, I could argue all the records are "soft" because many of the best athletes engage in sports other than T and F. "Softness" isn't an effective argument for suggesting a record is clean - as you have shown. As I said, if it was you might "guarantee" it is clean. But you don't. You don't even say it is likely or probable but only that you don't know. All that argument to come to no conclusion. for kings of kinks mod

Men’s 800 because I truly believe Rudisha was clean. That record will also never, and I mean NEVER, be broken. 800, for men at least, is such a weird blend of raw speed, speed endurance, and pain tolerance, that there is no one individual PED that would truly help you. For women, testosterone and steroids clearly has an impact at this distance as the increased muscle power benefits women. The increased muscle power for men means more lactate, and subsequently more pain, so I think it is really hard to dope the event.
There actually is. Its called TESTOSTERONE. Any anabolic steroid is going to help you with all of those things. Even the pain tolerance. You do not know what you are talking about.
The 800m is probably the easiest event to dope which is why womens times are so far off the (almost certainly doped) world record, and mens times have gotten so much slower. Rudisha was absolutely dirty.

That boy was just a freak of nature. Same with Bo Jackson, Bolt, Michael Johnson, Mike Tyson and of course the GOAT Jordan!
