^If he's beating Tim in workouts, then he's far from "done".
Has his suspension been served already? Because Tim/Rongei are breaking anti-doping rules if they have been training together while he's under suspension.
The training ban expires earlier than the competition ban. I can't remember the specifics but I think it's 2 months earlier?

A training ban? How preposterous. WA can't stop a banned athlete from keeeping fit.
@Mods why did you delete my post comparing the return of Manangoi to the return of MakhDaddy at Doha after 3 years no racing at age 32? Please reinstate it.
Manangoi 5th in another low key race in France last night in 3:39.99.
Absolute evidence of three things :
1/ he was doping and isn't now.
2/ Kenyans 'whereabouts failures' are not due to ignorance of the rules, but rather doping.
3/ EPO DOES work!

It’s just not “absolute evidence” of those things. Him not running well after multiple years off can be for a hundred reasons besides drug use. Not saying you are wrong but your evidence is circumstantial. Let’s see how the rest of the season plays out.
Wrong, he didn't have multiple years out, he had effectively one missed season (2021) and has been by his own social media posts training his butt off all the time (and likely against the rules with the Rongei group). There is nothing 'circumstantial' about inferring from a man suspended for two years for anti-doping is running 10 seconds slower on his return, still only 28, and showing no sign of progressing.

A doping violation isn't "circumstantial". The dramatic decline in his performances suggests the WADA take on these things is the correct one.

Yes he is wrong about having absolute evidence. What he has is a theory which I can’t say is definitely wrong. I could have a similar theory about Josh Kerr’s bizarre competitive schedule vis a vis drug testing but I don’t.

What's bizarre in Kerr's schedule? The he is incontant?

Why in the hell would we delete it? In this week's podcast, we spent a lot of time talking about how Manangoi sucks and what that implies about his past. It will be out in an hour or two.
What's bizarre in Kerr's schedule? The he is incontant?
In his last 3 seasons (‘19, ‘21, ‘22) he’s been a top 10 and even top 3 1500m runner. He’s run one Diamond League level race in those 3 seasons with this years Birmingham race (note: in 2019 he ran a non-DL race at the London meet). The only other big regular season meet he does is Millrose. No Pre Classic, no European DLs/major indoor meets. A bunch of low-key US meets that are unlikely to have testing.
