I respect your opinion and you have the right to it but I want you to consider my opinion very seriously just in case I might be MORE RIGHT than you are!! And there is a big chance of that because I bring very high intelligence to the discussions on the forum. I have no fear of threats of retaliation, deletions, fiery insults and other psychogenic evil schemes. I only give the truth and nothing but the truth so with me you need to treat me with utmost seriousness in all my words.
This was one of the slowest 10000m races on record in fact the slowest. It deviates from mean and median times by so far out that you have to think extraordinary factors are at work in this field of runners to produce such huge deviation.
Nowhere in history did we have a field of runners of such calibre gifted with the best man made technological advances the world could provide running SO SCAREDY-CAT in a hot and humid night in Tokyo. I checked thermometer at race time it was around 90F pretty standard for summer world championships in the northern hemisphere ain’t it?? Is there fair to say? So why would 25 athletes using high tech shoes and tracks suddenly all feel so scaredy-cat when 1000 other athletes since the 80s, 90s 00s 10s and early 20s all ran in similar weather and at least 1-1.5min faster or more?
Did our athletes today all suddenly have their brain frequencies manipulated in the oval circle to feel scaredy-cat frequencies? It looks like it, the facts and stats show it. It was slow out of the ballpark slow!!
And slow is one thing but Gressier, Almgren, Young, Kejelcha were grimacing in extreme resistive lactic pain despite running SO darn slowly. This doesn’t fit any running physiological theory we have seen. Kenenisa Bekele closed Athens and Beijing 10000m in 53.02 each JOGGING IT IN and showboating. Sileshi Sihine was 1-2 seconds back each time but till closed in under 55 seconds. They both had none of the advances of todays field of runners.
Advanced research has shown that there are weaponised brain weapons that can be pulsed on an well defined geographic area to cripple soldiers and animals alike, make them less mentally and physically sharp and take the sting out of their well conditioned bodies. The same is surely happening to the field of runners in Tokyo and for reasons we may not fully understand but it’s happening.
Something is not quite right in Tokyo. If it were me I would catch the first flight out and get lost from that city under brain siege.
