BOSSSSS!!!!
BOSSSSS!!!!
I wouldn't go that far mate, no whites in the 100m or 400m. Only Galen and Zane in the top 12 of the 10k. But what is true is the nation's with mostly white people living in them eg Denmark, Australia, NZ, Ireland, Norway, Iceland, Canada, Luxembourg, Germany medical drugs are more tightly controlled and are less likely to be available for cheating and paper work is traceable on these drugs.

Van Niekirk is half white so im not surprised he has the genes to be the fastest ever.
No.
He's not even close to half white.
Learn some history.

According to the IAAF, all three guys were ahead of MJ's record pace with 100 to go -- Van Niekerk slowed down the least, if he had matched MJ's HGH/Roid fueled last 100 meters he'd have run 42.5/42.6 or so.
Too bad Merritt got a medal, but the bitter look on his usually cocky face was priceless. He's a piece of cheating garbage.
What a joke. As if Merritt is the only cocky sprinter.
In addition, what makes you so sure that Michael Johnson was doping but that Wayde van Niekirk, who just beat his record, was not doping?
Almaz Ayana runs a WR that bested an allegedly admitted doper, and she was obviously doping, according to a good half of the people on this forum. But then Wayde van Niekirk runs a WR, and nobody, including the guy above who thought the old one was definitely doped, has nothing to say about WvN's cleanliness? I think Wayde is clean, but I really, really don't get the inconsistency on these boards.
People poke holes in the out-of-competition testing in Kenya and Ethiopia. But can you really be sure that it's so good in South Africa?
People made fun of Ayana for looking easy and relaxed in her dominant world record. But van Niekirk looked VERY relaxed, especially compared to Kirani James and LaShawn Merritt (who looked very labored and dying in the last 50m) as well.
And what about Steve Magness? He said that Ayana's WR was just "laughable," but had nothing but congratulations for Wayde on his WR?
Why is the distance community so bitter over East Africans? It's like some kind of weird xenophobia.
Again, I think Wayde is clean, and he turned in a STELLAR performance, but if you're going to celebrate his world record, celebrate Ayana's, too.
Video splits here https://twitter.com/pjvazel/status/764994698276659200 . Went out preposterously fast especially in that second 200 in 9.8 wow

That's super fast.
That would be interesting. Love to see what he could do with Johnny Grays 600m WR too.

Okay, so teach us.
Learn to post.
Speaking of, where is his dad? Mom was in her 50's when she had him.
Lanes 4, 5, and 6 typically have the top seeds. Since WVN finished second in his semi he got a poor lane draw. Studs usually don't run in the inside or outside lanes in championship races or invites.

The old white lady is his coach not his mother.

That was my first thought as well. Not drugs, but track measure. Even a tiny bit can be enough. And, for 25 laps, more than enough. Likely it has been checked, but maybe best they check again.
Hey stupid, there only a handful of company's that are contracted to lay this type of surface in this type of world class facilitiy. They know what there are doing.

0/10
Not even close.
Oooops, my bad. Thanks.
He's a stud. INSANE closing speed!!! I agree with the guy that said he'll end up being the first to break 43.

I would say in richer nations, you are more likely to afford more advanced pharmaceuticals that are ahead of current testing standards.

*companies
Actually his final 100 was 0.5 slower than MJ's. This begs the question: if he goes a TOUCH slower the first 200, say 0.3 sec, does he come back 0.5 sec faster and get under 43?

I don't see him messing with the 800.
And I don't understand this fascination.
He'd break 2 hours in the marathon with a few months of specific training
Yep, McMillan pace calculator predicts a marathon of 1:58:34... Only 10.3 for the 100m though, weird.
Yeah, the Macmillan calculator gets closer to the speed of light the longer the distance, just like any good science fiction.
