Tim Cheruiyot Skipping Bislett Games Dream Mile To Plant Potatoes

1600>mile>1500. Doubling the race distance each time seems more natural than forcing them to be multiples of 500m after the first few races. 400 tracks make more sense than 500 for the same reason.

So in the end, almost got it right. Very slow race with Manangoi holding off Mikhou in a sprint for the line. Manangoi closed in 53 meaning he’ll still be tough to beat in championships. But disappointing regardless. Tim has his priorities right.

What are you talking about? Tim decided to skip one of the most prestigious races of the year so he can focus on the World Championships next year?

Tonight just proved how much Kiprop's bust is going to speed up the decline in times (outside of Monaco) we've been seeing for a while now.

Enjoy seeing a Kenyan win while you can El K, because as long as Jakob stays fit and motivated, he's going to dominate for the next decade.

TESTER: "Where's Tim?"

NEIGHBOR: "He's out planting potatoes"

TESTER: "This is the 3rd time we came by"

NEIGHBOR: "Yes, he's always planting potatoes. On neighbor's plot's as well"

TESTER: "We need to test him"

NEIGHBOR: "Sorry, can't help you. Can I offer you some money for tea?"

i dont care how butt hurt wejo gets over this, but it will go down as one of the all time classic inside LR jokes of all time

now if i could only find that $32....where did i misplace it

Kiprop bust has yo' boys spooked. A Kenyan will not win 2019 WCs.

You guys really know how to screw up a thread. Happens over and over and over again. Still better than the odd and annoying perseveration of m!ndweak, but a little worse than calculo/ventolin.

Why do you keep picking on m!ndweak? He gives it to you straight - the reality of the doping world in athletics isn't very pleasant to discuss. What I see here on these doping threads lately is too many doping apologists.

thanks man....and to the haters, you dont mean sh*t.....as i have told wejo over and over and over, i get harrassed and insulted DAILY but you dont see me crying to malmo to get anyone banned.

and from what i have gathered from all the spray is El k is not a kenyan nor lives there....but i think he is actually british and spends lots of time in kenya. he is the equivalent to the white liberals here in the US that hate being white soooo bad. its a mental disorder. like how can you hate your own skin and everyone else that is white and then cry and complain and tell others they also need to drown in white guilt...its crazy i tell you

Because it's annoying as $hit. Is it really necessary on every thread that he posts on, no matter the topic? I picture him as a very immature 19-23 year old that ran track in high school, but no longer competes. He might even still jog a little 4 miler here and there. In fact, considering the obsession and frequency of his posting, it's possible that he's autustic. So, apologies if that's the case. If that's not the reason, then he has some deep seated issues that should be addressed.

oh man my feelings are soooo hurt, you just wait there mister i am going to cry to malmo and the brojos about my feelings and have you BANNED!!! oh wait i dont do that, thats someone else on here we cant name....

First it was Langford now it’s Ingebrigsten. We’ll see, I suppose. But be warned he’s not even the fastest 17-year-old in the world at the moment.

Again, the only "teenagers" currently faster than JI hail from a country currently known for doping its athletes, as well as falsifying their ages. Stop acting like a chode, you know G. Managoi is not a teen.

Old man George .

let me ask you this been awhile^3

what have you contributed on LR besides insulting me and complaining? prob nothing at all. maybe your just some random person who rarely comments or maybe your this one crybaby who has 50 different handles and tries super hard to instigate me to try and have me banned.

" Is it really necessary on every thread that he posts on, no matter the topic?"

i dont quite follow? i hadnt even posted on this thread, and if you are trying to say that i make a comment about kenyans doping and you find it annoying then you should prob move on, cause there will be more of them getting busted dont worry about that.

if you find it annoying that lately im making fun of the "$32 for tea" excuse.....just remember it wasnt me that said it, it was kiprop.

and if you had paid attention i have said many times i ran in HS and College, but your right i dont run anymore....i dont have any desire to try and log miles...what for? if i was into road races then maybe, when i run i like to go fast, since im out of shape i cant run fast, so i dont run....its simple

" it's possible that he's autustic"

see what you did here? you insulted me by comparing me to someone who is mentally handicapped,.....nice man your sooo mature. where you at on this one WEJO? you complain about me ranting offends people....but do you see me using the word "autistic" as a derogatory term? if i had said that, i would be threatened to be BANNED.

and then you try to apologize for your unPC word choice and then say i have some deep seated issue.....i do buddy....my issue is this myth that kenyans are SUPER HUMAN SUPERIOR to all other races EVER! and this is perpetuated by people like you who make up excuses when and why they get popped for PEDs and EPO.

humans are so genetically similar that the concept of "race" is outdated. Nazi's claimed they were the superior race, but thanks to renato, it appears that kenyans are the superior race....

what sounds crazier to you

-kenyans are light years better than every other "race" on the planet

-kenyans have more depth at the distance events, but because of EPO they are now light years better than every other race.

my bad why should i even ask, i know its the 2nd one....EPO doesnt work, and $32 will barely get you tea in kenya

Winning a Diamond league event is like $10k, in a country where the average wage is like $1.7k, why doesn't he share the love around in his local community by employing locals? It is bad for your back and hammies, must really like gardening.

A pair of Daily Mail readers. Explains a lot. Won’t be bothering with you two anymore.

Daily Mail? WTF? It is like the biggest online newspaper in the world. The Guardian & Independent are too the left, The Telegraph and the Express are to the right of it so your comment makes little sense. Rojo said he reads the Telegraph I think.

What's really annoying is that he also mentioned "fuel", but that doesn't seem to get raised.

That makes no sense at all. The marathon is based on the distance from Marathon to Athens. It's not because 26 miles 385 yards is a logical distance for a race. Any more than 42.195km is.

If we wanted to go fully metric, I'd counter that 2k is a better distance than 1600. As is 1500 - where you start and finish on a long straight.

The marathon is 26 miles 385 yards because that allowed British monarch children to watch the start from the nursery windows at the 1908 Olympics

Maybe you'd like to see Kenyan runners refusing to run the marathon also? Stick two fingers up at the British Establishment (which is long dead).
