Oslo is not Olympics and not World Championships. Oslo is just another European meet. None of the D L meets are championship-style. Will there be one or more rabbit? Do 1500m athletes need to race three times in five days like a championship? If not, it's a joke.
I would love to see both of them push each other into 3:26 territory, though neither has yet shown that they can touch that.
I don't think is in 2019 shape yet, but I hope his injury problems are behind him. People forget he ran the Olympics with niggling hamstring.

His forward lean in L.A. was about 4 degrees greater than it used to be. This is his secret weapon for this year.

Agreed. It would be great if he is fit and healthy and can give J.I a huge fight this season. Would be incredible exciting to watch and great for them both.
Tim is only skipping the potato planting to run in Oslo in the hope we will stop calling him potato Tim.

It's not a "European meet". DL meetings are the most important one-day t&f competitions in the world. They are held mainly in EU (this year also: 1 in Middle East, 1 in Africa, 2 in China and Final in the US) because Europe is the center of the civilized world. :):):)
We don't have shootings here and automatic rifles available on every corner ;) We also don't have thieving medical services like "deep teeth cleaning" for only $1200
:)

They don't forget, they conveniently ignore ( hmmm I wonder why) because whenever J.I is sick (every indoor season it seems and whenever he loses), it's all we hear.
There's some weird psychology going on with Jamin's post. I think it has something to do with the fact that Jakob is a boss, on and off the track and that is everything that Jamin is not.
Now they are at least nine. Gjerts pupil Narve Gilje Nordås, 3.34.70 so far.
Monaco will be fast
Incredible.
Is he fighting with his sons still? There is a rift?
Tim looked sharp last week, cruisin'. I guarantee you he is not underestimating Jakob however.

Tim runs like an old man because he is an old man. He'll lean further forward until he needs a cane
