Wanders: kudos to the Swiss athlete for finishing this race well down on his best time from 2019, and that was the Swiss athlete’s superb year in 2019 during a three month summer. He ran all his best track times, including a phenomenal 2717 on the track for 10,000 m. Julien is only 26 years young but I’m wondering will he ever get back to that form that he showed during 2019?
I’m guessing maybe he has some mechanical problem with his legs which prevents him from fully striding out and reaching his best level. We wish him the best of luck in his continued endeavors.
