You sound stupid yourself for not actually listing examples of your point
And you are a moron for needing examples to understand the point. Of course I will provide examples if this is needed for the numbskulls.
To give you one of many examples, Markos Geneti ran 2:04:54 a year ago on January 27. Of course he was defeated by Ayele Abshero, who ran 2:04:23 and Dino Sefer, who ran 2:04:50. These are personal bests for all three.
yes
but he needs to take his meds on time
and persevere with the anger management
no matter how tough it gets
In case the point has not sunk in yet, Dick Buerkle ran 3:54.93 on January 13. This remains his mile pb and is superior to his 1500m pb.

an ancient feat from '78 from a guy who coudn't make the american 1500 team in '76 at 28y but the 5k team, so looked like 5k was his best event
with his mile wr run he wouda been invited to run some mile/1500 races in '78 against ovett & in '79 against coe/ovett
what were his results ???

1. Marathon. Obviously not what we're talking about here.
2. Short course.

i have never said that
i believe mo has low/mid-51 ( we have a 12.9 100m vid ) & rupp high-51/52-flat when both at their peaks
Which is bollocks. Rupp has low 23 200 speed, high 48/low 49 400 speed.
So, you are saying that Rupp and Farah have the same amount of fast twitch, you just lack the basic running knowledge to know.
moron
how does this off-season, but eyeballs out 12.98 for mo convert to "high-48/low-49" & indicate anything substantially better for his whupping boy rupp ???
you'd expect 11 flat for someone like Moh Fara.
which is myth that needs lotta busting
reality is that even the best 5k or 10k guys don't have better than low-12 speed in top shape/conditions, indicating nothing better than
50++ & +
