He is part of the Elite Running Team and its him as well in the video winning the 10k in Lille last Oct.
This started off as a thread about the 1500 but I've turned it into the official meet discussion thread as the meet is about to start.
The meet is on live on youtube if you have an Irish VPN. Need a VPN, go here.
Live results can be found here.
Here is our preview.

Yeah highly confusing I would guess he’s the Japanese-based guy and they’re mistakenly giving his results to the other profile with that athlete having a 1986 birthday.
I think your right: https://z-p42.www.instagram.co...">www.instagram.com/amosbett95/"...
Anyway a solid athlete to keep our eyes on

I think you are very stupid if you don't think that someone identified as female at birth and raised their whole lives as a woman with no knowledge of their DSD condition until they began running, who is eligible to run in the woman's category, should do so. If you were them, you would do the exact same thing and to deny that either shows a severe lack of empathy or that you are trolling. It should be up to the governing bodies to decide what to do with DSD athletes, but until them to expect them to voluntarily go to the men's category when a) they have been raised as a woman and b) they are not fully male and hence would stand no chance even with training, would be stupid.
We should not condemn or belittle those with DSD, but we should respectfully not let them compete with females. The women's category must be protected.

lol@ altitude conversions for 2000 ft!
Lol at all altitude conversions. No one else in the world uses altitude conversions, only the NCAA. The "science" behind it is a joke. At best, you could give an estimate with confidence intervals which I expect would be very wide. Remember when Kamworor's 27:01 was converted to something like 26 flat? Anyone believe he was in that sort of shape? Absolutely not (though I'm sure someone is now saying "ah, but it's different for Kenyans, because reasons").
Again, I don't see why people are so desperate to give Nuguse another 2 seconds. He ran well, beat a world class opponent plus a bunch of other top guys and he did it in a solid time. 3:33 is good, close to his outdoor PB. But it wasn't 3:31 no matter how you dress it up.
