Jacob Ingebrigtsen is gonna get a taste of humble pie from Timothy Cheryuiot this year

1. They are listed in Oslo. Wouldn't call that race at all a money-grabbing joke — looks like it will be a phenomenal venue to run a PB or close.

2. Any 1500 race? Tim is good at controlling races. A global final? Sure, let Jakob/Kipsang push early if they're going to take it out fast.

3. Even in a down season, I think Tim peaked pretty well last year. His Worlds race last year wasn't great on the surfact, but Katir shoved him out of the way and he also ran FTW trying to pass Tim which you couldn't say about the guys who beat him outside of Jake/Jakob. He ran well at Comm Games as well.

There's a start list? Where?

Only every time he thought he was going to taste hair pie. At a minimum.

Jakob is done. He'll never win another medal.

I hate to say it but J.I. dominance is here for the long haul. He is like this sports Lance Armstrong in that his doping program is unrivaled. He's developing the same arrogance too. Funny how that works.

Tim C runs like a wounded crab with only two legs left.

Nobody views that as international

Olympic > worlds >>>>>>>>> commonwealth

You post like a wounded octopus with only one leg left.

Jamin bakes a lot of rhubarb pies and is always looking for a rhubarb.

Yes - El G and Lagat. But Noah Ngeny is the second fastest miler after El G and still holds the 1000m world record, so he was perhaps more speed based.

I actually think Laros and Myers will be there in a couple of years...

People keep on disrespecting Jacob Ingebrigtsen and that's really weird. He keeps getting disrespected, maybe because of his confident attitude, or perhaps because he is a white westerner and not supposed to be beating Africans like he did at the world champs 5,000. Perhaps some people still don't think he is the real deal, but they haven't been closely watching him these last several years.

Very likely. Quite a few top white male athletes are disrespected or otherwise marginalized. Crazy world and crazy people at the reins of media who have brainwashed millions

Yeah. Tom Brady, Messi, Ronaldo, etc have really been marginalized by the media.

Mondo and Crouser are both white T&F athletes that are very much liked and admired. Why? Because they are amazingly talented and seem like cool guys. JI is a great runner but thinks he is a lot cooler than he is. People don’t like that.

Maybe it’s because he has gotten silver in the two most recent WC 1500s.

what is more real and more likely is that Jamin will say something stupid on these esteemed boards. Loser.

And simultaneously there's a thread raving about 8 or 10 of the 5000 guys who Jakob can effortlessly trounce while taking water breaks and waving to friends in the stands
