Not more obvious than Makhloufi.
He's like the anti-Ramzi. Ramzi was the expert when it came to timing the cycle perfectly.
"Katir" is a funny way to spell "Ingebrigtsen"

Just trying to understand:
if he succeeds looking superhuman, he must be doping
If he fails looking pedestrian, he must be doping.
He seems to me like a flawed 1500m runner a la McSweyn more than anything. He got his bronze largely on shoving Cheruiyot out of the way with an inside pass. And that race was set up perfectly for him being a time trial basically. Today has Kipsang yo-yoing the pace and a host of guys who ran smartly and timed their finishes well. Not a good spot for Katir who nearly got bounced in the rounds in 2022 fwiw.
Inconsistency is probably a better indicator of cleanishness.

Katir would look superhuman for a few weeks, then an also-ran, then suddenly superhuman again. Not just slight dips in form or performances that can be explained away by poor tactics, but looking like a completely different athlete.
