Pre Classic - Women's 800 WR's Days are Numbered

I bet all of Rojo's money the world record stays safe. Far from safe. Winning time will be 1:55 high fastest

Oops, didn't mean to say "far from safe". Though I kind of do hope it is in danger. All of Rojo's money would be in danger as well as a result

This is equivalent to getting a 1:43 flat man and some 1:44ers and calling it a threat to Rudisha.

If they can get a pacer to go 56 high I'll say mu will run 1:54 low but not a wr

Mu will ask for a pacer at WR pace, otherwise, what's the point of running it.

So is someone isn't going for a world record, then they shouldn't bother racing?

Mu is DSD

You don't know what you're talking about. ALL professional athletes are tested for their testosterone level as part of their regular drug testing.

If Athing Mu had high testosterone, she would have already been banned from running the 400 to 1 mile distances.

Looks like the 800 is not part of Saturday's program. It will be held on Friday night.

Umm yeah, Friday is women’s distance night. Announced along time ago. It’s included with the ticket.

The point is Nike is making this athletes run.

Need to get Muir into that as well.

Yes, I know but I thought they'd schedule the superstars' heat for Saturday's main event.

I think 154 mid at best. Would love to be wrong. Can see Mu challenging the WR in the next couple of years.

A new wr would be proof of doping. So - yeah, it's possible.

Can we PLEASE ban this poster? Literally all they do is accuse runners of doping.

Of course, anyone in our sport could be doping. But look at the form of the particular runner you are accusing. Very few in the history of the world with her body type and fluid form.

Absolutely baseless claims are getting really annoying, and frankly hurt the progress of the sport.

#banarmstronglivs

Unless you think mu is already doping a new world record isn't proof, at 19 she just ran a 1:55 low running from the front, improving less than 2 second after 19 means your doping.

Chance for WJR

1:55.2 = 1:42.8

This lineup is missing someone critical...and very very attractive!
