Does Parsons have a chance to appeal his 5000 heat trip to make it into the final?

nah Jakob paid them off to trip Parsons because he knows he’s too big of a threat to be let in the final

No no no, Gjert paid Parsons to gilooly Jakob and pave the way for Nordas. Unfortunately, he mis-timed the dive and took Stewie down instead.

I know this is stupid, but my first thought when I saw the trip was that it was an intentional fall to try and use the trip loophole to get into the final. He saw it was going to be a kicker’s race the final 800, and decided he had a better shot appealing a trip than our kicking his stacked heat.

Given how often we see tripped athletes walked into finals, you’ve got to wonder if it could be a real strategy.

He did not want to but German federation appealed. But was not granted. He tripped over his own feet. Can't blame anyone..

I'd bet a lot of money no regular user of this site could beat Parsons in a race 1500m and up

The trick is to not trip

I am not sure why you would think this? There are some very fast runners who are users on this website. Many pro runners have stated how they regularly use this website.

What an idiotic statement.

Dude’s got no time for the lame 5000m final, he’s got tons of $175 TME chains to pack and ship!

He can appeal if he wants to get his sh!t pushed in during the final. He wasn't even close to the top guys prior to the fall, and he certainly wasn't going to hang with that final push.
