Why does this guy look like he wasn’t even trying at the end bro just keeps a straight face???

Honestly, I wonder whether he'll be able to ever smile wholeheartedly before/unless he wins the 1500m World Champs.

It really says something (impressive!) about his mentality that he just had one of the most insane seasons by a middle/long distance runner ever, and is probably feeling crushed and looking at it as a catastrophe. I really hope he gets the gold before he has to move up in distance from the 1500.

re: Hdoed

This race is just emblematic of how Cranny is miles away from medaling in the 5000, let alone the 10000. 1500 can’t be bleaker can it?

61 last lap for the leader so how fast did Tanaka close? Maybe about the same

It feels like cranny hit her ceiling. Maybe she needs a different training stimulus. Running Jerry’s boring workouts for another couple years isn’t gonna help her much. Pull a woody and join Mike smith Elite.

Olympic athlete Lilian Kasait Rengeruk has been handed a 10-month doping ban after being found to have used a prohibited substance by the sport's Athletics Integrity Unit.
Rengeruk, 25, who finished 12th in the 5,000 metres final at last year's Olympics in Tokyo, used the hormone therapy drug Letrozole.
The former world Under-18 3,000m champion had her results annulled from 20 January this year, the day she provided her positive sample.
The former All-African Games and national champion's suspension will run from April 2022 to February 2023 because she admitted her guilt.
"Taking into consideration how promptly the athlete admitted the anti-doping rule violations upon notification, the parties agree that the period of ineligibility shall be backdated," the AIU said in a statement.

Girl who won the 5k served a 10 month ban. Can someone explain why they gave her 10 months? They must have thought she wasn't doping. What does the drug Letrozole. do? What would be an innocent reason to have it.

She admitted fault promptly, and must’ve had some form of breast cancer that was backed up upon scrutiny. It was the AIU and not only was it just 10 months they backdated it to allow her back to competition quickly. Seems like she just should’ve had a TUE.

Ingvaldsen "promised" 43.xx next year.

Would be nice to see another sub 44.50 today. Looks like Hudson-Smith is a DNS, so McDonald's the clear favorite.

no they don’t. They’re not even world records. Reason why he won’t feature in the final of best male athlete award at the end of the year.

It must suck to be so incredible hatefull and salty. Today was a fun day for everyone else :)

6 Things to Know About Letrozole

Hailey Horwath

Even substances in prescription medications used to fight breast cancer, like letrozole, may be abused to enhance performance.

Link:www.usada.org/spirit-of-sport/educatio...

"Athletes who abuse anabolic steroids might use an aromatase inhibitor like letrozole to prevent the formation of estrogens, and therefore reduce or prevent the unwanted and feminizing effects of anabolic steroid use. These side effects include male breast development (gynecomastia), water retention, and belly fat. In addition, male athletes may use abuse aromatase inhibitors like letrozole to boost their own natural levels of testosterone by preventing its breakdown."

Jakobs comment:
It´s always fun to break a record. This one qualifies as a world record and not as a world´s best. I know I was able to break this one, but I had some kind of virus ten days ago and I didn´t really know how I would be feeling today. However I felt really good and ran a good race. To be honest this records wasn´t a difficult one for me. Sure, when you have to do it alone, it´s really tough, but I got great help from the pacemakes. Actually they were able to help me more than I expected.
-To his point the pacer was there how late? 1350? Perhaps Tuwei should consider the 1500 in the future…

He's still whining about the 'virus'?? Unreal
