Amazing that Grant Fisher outkicked a guy like Cole Hocker whose kick is sick. Always great to cheer for the true long distance guy. But the time is even more insane. World athletics scoring says this is comparable to a 12:32 outdoor 5k, and a 26:07 outdoor 10K!
That is crazy.
....
Grant didn't outkick Hocker, neither last 200m was an injection of speed. Grant overtook Hocker on good foot speed BUT mainly with superior endurance today.
Worst take ever. All kicking above 400m (or foot speed?) is related to how much you have left plus or minus some guys are a little faster than others. Cole didn't have it. He got outkicked period. These guys are not sprinters.

Said there without a hint of irony. Case closed.
Yes, you ignorant turd. We have to deal with our athletes getting beaten by known dopers. You are too stupid to understand anything about this sport. You are an idiot. Case closed.

So there are dopers all over the place. The bad news is that some of them are Americans.
So Americans seem to have been learning from Kenyans about how to succeed.

If you are referring to altitude training and incredible focused training? Then YES. Wait til outdoors if Grant, Cole, Shelby, W. Morgan, Hobbs, Yared, Weini, Elise, Amy, Parker x 2, Ellie, Heather, AND COMPANY stay healthy...USA could win the medal haul TOTAL from 800m to marathon. Stayed tuned U.S.A. coming soon to dominate near you.
The marathon? On your list, other than Fisher, Hocker and Nuguse, no one is going to win medals.

....So you say only 3 medals from 800m to marathon, I'll take that bet GLADLY 😁.
It's OFFICIAL. Flotrack announcers speaking in regards to Grant Fishers 5000m stating the target pace is 12:42 (for the pacers). That would OBLITERATE the current indoor WR...depends on how close and how long the pacers are useful. Mindboggling target pace WoW.
