Can someone explain the schedule to me?
Why is there at 2.5 hour break between running events? It makes no sense.
It was 1 1/2 hours between, not 2 1/2, during which time the Men's P.V. got it's own spotlight with introductions and the first hour of competition without other events stealing their spotlight.

Meh, not really. 1:42.3 championship effort off good pacing isn't crazy. Nobody else brought their A game
Are you dense? 1:42.3 effort isn’t crazy? It was a championship record, an American record, and PB for him. NOP all have a shadow cast over them and their performances from now on.
Classy by Brazier to say he couldn't have done it without Vazquez.
It's crazy for Americans, who still generally suck at 800.
didn't know Brazier was NOP. He was still floating around turn 3, no hint of rounds or fatigue of any kind.
Hopefully all their methods will end up public, legal or not.
Lyles will win the 3rd gold medal of the evening for the US.

He also made an effort to specifically thank and name his coach at NOP - Pete Julian
lol
Australian chick with a heck of a throw there!!! Overtook the Chinese duo!
Seyni doesn't make the final after strange switch from the 400.
Lalova makes another final at 35!

You are dense to think Brazier doesn’t have the talent to possibly run 1:42 clean. I get that everybody’s a suspect, but to think he couldn’t possibly do this clean is wrong.

It's well within the wheelhouse of most championship gold medalists, especially with free pacing at 49 flat. That was better than a DL meet today!
The guy ran 1:43 as a teenager.

He broke the junior record with 1:43.55 three years ago before he was with NOP. I don't see anything in his performances that suggest he's doping.

It's not crazy for a guy who is already a front runner to PR by .4 seconds in peak fitness. Especially a guy who ran 1:43 at 18 years old.

Someone didn't watch the race. How often do you get a rabbit in 49.00 in a championship race?

The dude was 1:43.5 5 in freakin COLLEGE, four years ago. Everything has pointed to a clean career resulting in this. Glad the test evader Amos wasn't here to flail around in the final stretch. The guy runs pure ugly.
Rojo and Wejo,
Y'all gotta Brazier the black page. This calls for it.

Looked like his jock broke and his junk started flopping around. A genuine tragedy.

Speaking of Vazquez, what's going on with Puerto Rico's 800 Men? What kind of 4 X 800 team they could field right now! Are they all under one National Coach?
