Such an arrogant dumb decision in the heat and it will backfire. Have you seen the schedule, the 1500 heat tomorrow morning, two days til two deep semis. Her heat has lemlem, Hull, Purrier, and Guerrero. Lucky to have the luxury of 6+6 to go thru.
Esther Guerrero will not cause Hassan to over-exert herself in a 1500 prelim. I think Hassan might actually pull it off, but I hope she doesn’t because she strikes me as a blatant doper.
Honestly, I’d rather she came away with zero medals, and maybe a positive test as well. I’m predicting she’ll win golds in the 5k/10k and silver (behind Kipyegon) in the 1500.
Not Esther but what about a fall and the extra exertion to win the heat anyway.
