What the actual f*** was that ad break? I was in the other room getting a snack because it wasn't even live and suddenly I hear people screaming, run back, and it's half over. What the actual f***.

Wanted Arop to close. Appreciated that the French runner made a move for the crowd. Hoppel seemed well-positioned but just sort of stagnated once in that position.
I mean he ran 1:41.67. He PR’d by like a second. Yeah, I would think he might stagnate a bit.
Yeah, I edited my post so it didn't seem like an insult. Stagnated in position, but that was due to the blistering pace.
Gotta think Hoppel may get upgraded. The 800m has been basically unchanged unlike all other events from a time perspective since the super shoes dropped.
Now we have guys dropping 1:41 low after rounds. Hoppel at least doesn’t have that otherworldly change of pace we see from others and a plausible reasoning for his improvement (altitude, mileage, training partners) after training solo and by his dad previously.

This is a cope. He is no more likely to be doping than Wanyoni, Arop, or Sedjati. Stop please.
Yeah...I was waiting for Peacock to start for 10 minutes beforehand, and then all of a sudden it came on for me with the race 15 seconds in....wtf peacock.
You guys are crying about Hoppel being robbed meanwhile USADA just got exposed, and he ran basically the same time as Sedjati, and his PB was 1:43 before this season and he doesn't have any outdoor medals meanwhile Sedjati at least got a medal in Eugene (Bryce's home turf) in 2022.
I think Hoppel did pretty much everything he could. If he tries to fight to the rail, he could get boxed in. And at the end of the race it was clear he didn’t have anything left. Paced it well, PR’d, nothing more he could do.
