World Champs - Day 6 - Official discussion thread

Race of the WC's so far?

Wow. What a woman's 400m final!

YAY NO AMERICANS IN THE 800!!!!!!! I remember a few threads laughing at Jake Wightman for running 1.44 at a bmc - he's a silver medalist in the 1500. How did your boys do in the 8 and 15 american fools?!

Going sub 48 in lane 9 is way more impressive than doing it in lane 5.

Shocked me how fast Paulino went out.

Wasn’t that a great race!

Now two more women under 48.

Wow.

Great athletes.

'Easiest 47.78 ever!!!'

So they would have run 46 if doped?

Tacos and lots of quesadillas

Now that would be crazy! We’re talking like sub-40s if that happened, right?

yeah

tbh, that's not surprising with bicarbs as well as super spikes.

Brazier/Hopple an example of what happens when Americans don’t spend enough time on the European circuit

Like what Ian Stewart was talking about concerning Pre.

Her husband is on the same gear LOL

So someone who is barely slower isnt doped?

I'm damn impressed - but I kinda just want to leave it written in the aether that the most in theme with 2025 outcome here would be SML getting busted in the next 2 years now

SHE'S AS DOPED UP AS HER ROIDED-OUT HUSBAND 😡😡😡😡

SML is superhuman, but Paulino out in lane 9 iis no slouch herself. That WR is on borrowed time.

Actually running in the outside lanes is faster physically because of less curve and less centrifugal force. Harder mentally, but easier physically. See lore of running by noakes he references study. 400 men’s world record set in lane 6 or 7?

Bicarb is one hell of a ped. So real doping would put them in the 45s.
