Well said Subway.

Btw, I take what Canova says with a grain of salt on this Kenyan doping issues simply for fact that he has coached Kenyans for most of his career. It's called bias opinion - I really wouldn't expect him to say anything else. It wasn't too long ago someone posted a portrait of Canova floating around for sale on Ebay. In the background above his head was an image of a Kenyan runner - that said it all right there. ?

I wonder if Mindweak would consider bidding on it? ?

What was the cocktail he drank?

What is happening is what several have predicted. With the Kenyans (and Epiopians) now being exposed, the people behind the mess who see track as only a small part of their "conditioning plan" have decided to pour a lot more money into the machinery that pays off officials etc., and as was said well over a month ago, we will see certain countries and groups that fit the bill provide us with performances that are off the charts. The sport has been ruined. It isn't only the Kenyans and Ethiopians who will be protected, again, it will be entire countries in some cases (third world of course) or individuals from around the globe who fit the political narrative. The idiotic Westerners will be directed to see only Russians, Japanese, pale-face Americans and others as cheats. And the campaign against cheating will heat up. In first world countries. Because that will help push the desired narrative.

That was funny I enjoyed that

Yes, it was funny the way he skewered all of the idiots who blindly think that what we're seeing is real, is clean. Very good post.

My favourite part was 'pale-faced Americans'.

No agenda there at all, just another insightful post by a letsrun arse.

?? Excellent satire.

Only training partner and friend Elijah Manangoi can challenge him right now but he, unfortunately, lost his sister and that might affect his training. Hopefully the Manangois bounce back from this loss.

Damn those evil East Africans.

I’m keeping this thread alive, until after Monaco at least, because I’m determined that Tim gets the respect and recognition due him. He’s a phenomenal runner and I’ve watched, with awe, his growth as an athlete over the last few years. I thought it highly unjust and disrespectful, how team Kenya thought him expendable deploying him as a rabbit at the 2015 worlds for the benefit of Asbel Kiprop, Elijah Manangoi and Silas Kiplagat. Tim never once complained and did what he was told even though that could’ve been his break out party. He’s also had to live in the shadow of a faster, more heralded training partner, but this will be the year of the ?. Bow down!

I’ve also just about had it with commentators always saying he has an “awkward” style or lack of smoothness. “Not smooth” is Isaiah Harris (have you seen marching band drummer’s arm action?). Tim has a slight forward lean when he runs, that’s all.

Just to correct some lie being repeated about Tim in that other thread (which I won't reply to in the hope of keeping the loons there and away from this thread), Tim has never stated that he will be going for the world record in Monaco, or anywhere. He's too humble for that. He did however say that his dream is to break 3:28 this season.

Training partner Elijah Manangoi, on the other hand, has talked about having a go at the world record for at least two years now and he confirmed his intentions after winning the Commonwealths a few months ago. But that was before his injury and recent events in his personal life.

O.K., I got it wrong about Tim making that prediction. He is the training partner of Manangoi, however, so...

Manangoi also hopes Kiprop is cleared and thinks him a 'humble and good person'. This is the person who kidnapped and beat his own wife, assaulted a bar manager and told him he couldn't do anything because he (kiprop) was the law, and allegedly pumped and dumped a 16 year old girl leaving her holding the baby.

Doubtful that court ordered psychiatric detention units have internet access.

Kiprop certainly has a poor character. That can't be denied. Manangoi is either stupid or a cheat.

Talking of character, did you read my little piece on the character of Lord Sebastian Newbold?

Coe used his position as 2012 Olympic organiser to make £12 million for a company of his, "didn't read" emails from Lamine Diack about Arab bribes and IAAF Russian doping cover ups, used his Lordship status and an ancient law to refuse Parliamentary summons to answer questions about IAAF corruption and recently as IAAF President gave the world champs to the home of Nike, his long time employer whom he definitely has no personal interests in.

A true White Knight.

Wow!..that's cold. M!ndweak is good chap - a little eccentric at times but not afraid to tell it like it is. And great satire when him & rek go at it.
