It astounds me how a runner message board can be so clueless about fitness vs fatigue and peaking when it counts. The Olympic 1500m final is the apex of middle distance races every 4 years. Every athlete circles the day of the final and line things up to ensure they have there shot if they make the final. Hocker and Kerr have both proven that they can time their peaks extremely well. Jacob on the other hand seems to just operate at extremely high fitness for 5 month without a specific day of absolute fitness vs fatigue structure. I think Jacob is clean based on his background in running but if anyone is dirty, it is Jakob.
If anyone is dirty they probably all are. They just dope to different cycles. Sometimes it's just a little more obvious. Like Hocker.
