Then they will have to delete every doping comment made by anyone in any thread. But you are so sure that this performance by Kiptum isn't doped. Yet the scepticism in every thread about him is a common theme.
Do you even understand what you just said? I am the one believing in his performance until he tests positive. You are the one with scepticism about his performance. I am not the one with anything to prove here. Why do you make out that I support dopers. Where is the proof. Put up or STFU
I don't believe in his performance. Nor do many others. For good reason. It defied belief. Yet you would silence views like mine. Most dopers don't test positive.

Yes, I did realize that he covered 30 to 40 km in 27:50 -- because I read Sean Hartnett's story on the TAFNEWS site. That's where to look for truly insightful analysis.

No one wants to silence views like yours. We would just like you to stop poluting threads with your repetitive posts. You derail threads with your incessant doping posts. State your opinion and leave. Nobody likes you, anyway.
I don't understand how any human can run 27:50 10k near the end of a marathon from a fueling perspective. Even with EPO you still need a massive mount of glycogen reserves to be able to put down the power required for a 27:50 10k. There's something new being used in the latter stages of the marathon we're not fully aware of...whether it be ketones or some sort of concentrated glycogen+caffeine boost.....
People have been trying forever to eliminate the wall at 20 miles but this cat ran the last bit there like he had an extra storage compartment in his body to draw on late stage glycogen.
Running economy/efficiency. It's been known for 100 years. You race faster using less energy.

I don't come here to be liked. So you don't want to "silence" someone like me; you just want me to shut up. That's quite amusing - albeit unintentionally so. You haven't noticed that there are a plethora of commenters here who think Kiptum is a doper. Nor have you noticed the stream of doping busts coming out of Kenya. Everything you say encourages me to continue. Well done.

If it's been "known for a 100 years" then I wonder why Nurmi and Zatopek and their successors got nowhere near what Kiptum is doing. But doping explains it perfectly.
letsrun.com should get a proper interview with Kiptum. The bbc interview was pathetic. No media has so far atleast attempted to get a proper interview. I think if you letsrun.com reaches out to him they can get a proper interview. His English is quite good there is no need for a translator.Ask him all these questions being raised by pundits on here.
Kiptum should be respected for his performance as under all conditions.
in fact, this goes for ALL sport, under all conditions at ALL times.
and anything ENTERTAINMENT for cash.
back in the day, they would take anything they could get their hands on, ruth on coke, baseball on snuff, bennies
Lebron, Bonds, Armstrong, FloJo, Ben Johnson, Jamaica, Morocco, Kenya, Russia, USA, Jon Jones, Elvis, Michale Jackson, Pavarotti, 90% rock and roll, 90% Hollywood, 90% Wall st, most of the elderly are jacked up on something.
Point being, consider looking at everything as being under all conditions.

There was an article on him by the son of Kip Keino in the BBC a few hours ago.

Yes, his English isn't bad. But interviewers still need to learn how to ask questions of people who aren't native English speakers, e.g., 1) Speak a bit more slowly and enunciate clearly, 2) Don't use idiomatic terms and phrases like "the hard bits."
All of would be obvious to anyone who has tried to communicate in a second language, but apparently not many T&F interviewers have.
