Just now at a meet in Poland, Addy Wiley ran 2:31.49 in the 1000m. According to Wikipedia this breaks the previous record of 2:31.80 set by Regina Jacobs all the way back in 1999!

Meh.
4:03 mile pace.
Thats men’s 5,000m WR pace

I bet there’s over 200 high school boys who could run 2:30.

put it into perspective

Get a new sport if you don't like the rules. Negatives tests means innocence. No tests, means highly suspicious. You know who. But keep deflecting shade while this great runner becomes world class through all negative tests. Another runner tanks after testing. Cheater.

You don't know who is guilty.

So women's records always have to be compared to men's records - "to put them into perspective"?

I know who is suspicious - and so do many others. That's why there are so many doping threads here. I also know that up to 1 in 2 championship athletes admitted to doping in confidential surveys.

Calm down.

I’m trying to get the Addy Wiley fans worked up here. With the PED allegations floating around, I think it is interesting to see how folks defend her.

If you know the sport OR know how to Google anything, you’ll see that her time is 12th all-time. Less than a second behind Muir and Semenya, who ran very fast times in other, more standard events. Great athletes.

So, comparing her to other women, it is an impressive time.

but high school boys are running faster than this for mile pace is a fact. No need to be offended by that, it’s reality.

If Georgia Bell and Jessica Hull are doping, at least they are doing it to win diamond league points and Olympic medals. What is Wiley getting out of this? Running in obscure little meets and the season is nearly over anyway. She's taking a huge risk for next to nothing.

there has been an obvious pr campaign for this athlete that involves trying to ram her down our throats

No. They are guilty just like I said. This isn't difficult.

Passed test = innocent. Wiley

Failed test = guilty. Armstrong

No tests = suspicious. Tuohy

Lol. Here is the thing. Most of us do not want to discuss this distasteful subject. But we are forced to

Guys, Addy is not a cheater. She was mentored by the Johnsons, two people with an incredible amount of integrity and appreciation for the rules. People just make stuff up about them and it's not fair.
