He went from world champion as a drug cheat to a pretty good high school freshman kids time today. And he was a way distant dead last today.
But we know doping doesn't work on distance runners. Rekrunner tells us that again and again.
On the contrary, I tell you again and again that "we don't know" and any such statements are faith-based.
When you look at the timing, Kiprop doesn't seem to be the best example to support these faith based assertions.
Assuming Kiprop's Nov. 2017 test result was a true positive, what we know is that Kiprop got a few seconds slower in 2016 and again a few more seconds slower in 2017. It would seem that, if anything, doping worked to make him slower.

When you say his results suggests doping, if anything, made him slower I see you can persuade yourself of any kind of absurdity. You may as well argue that doping is actually a form of handicapping.

Yes that's right, the extra red blood cells in his feet bones made them too heavy for him to run fast. People forget that red blood cells are made of iron which is a fairly heavy metal. Imagine having iron in your running shoes as an example....
