But still, it's a bit weird to use a time outside 30 minutes as evidence that she's probably cheating when the science experiments are going to be breaking 29 very soon.
Laughing is all you can do in the face of such shameless cheating. Not like anyone is ever going to take it seriously, even in Kenya the 'testing' is just lip service to a completely unmanageable problem.
You should also laugh at her 30:00.86 10,000 m time then. That's 87 hundredths away from Ma's territory. Or does she somehow get a pass with you?
It doesnt get a pass with me.Eilish is just jealous that assefa's drugs have worked better than hers have.
Ms McColgan is jealous. She needs to tame her jealousy.
Good for mccolgan. Call it out. The “just jealousy” dismissal is what allows dopers to thrive.
does anyone really believe that assefa or Hassan are clean??? Anyone??? Why is Hassan the only person who can recover from a record setting marathon to run an ultra fast 15?
do people value clean sport or no? Because can you imagine being a clean athlete watching this crap play out? Its demoralizing. It’s not the shoes.
Same as her mother. Acorn doesn't fall far from the tree. Liz got into several public spats with other athletes like Lisa Martin-Ondieki and continues throw shade at her daughter's rivals to this day.
Lisa Martin-Ondieki and Yobes Ondieki were major dopers in their day.
Widely discussed by distance runners in the Phoenix area (where they both lived) during their time of elite racing. They were a very odd… couple. Thankfully, for Kenny Martin (stand up guy and good clean runner) he got out of that relationship.
El Keniano, the history of your posts on this board says everything about you. That is… you are a doping apologist for primarily Kenyan runners (which Yobes is). I don’t take anything seriously that you post because it’s propaganda.
It would not surprise me if you are paid to post your Kenyan biased drivel.
The extent to which Kenya, and now obviously Ethiopia, have been using PED’s has undermined distance running to the point where people don’t follow or watch.
The sport I love (distance running) is a joke because of the doped up times from East African runners (predominantly Kenyan), their enablers (foreign coaches, agents, Kenyan sport officials, drug suppliers, doctors).
More recently, due to the pressure from World Athletics (banning Kenyan athletes from future competition as an entire country ban), the compromise - - AIU has set up testing in Kenya and Kenyan distance runners are getting caught. Most likely far more continue to slip through. Why then, when a Kenyan athlete does get popped, doesn’t the enablers go down as well? It is because of the normalized corruption within Kenya and mafia style industry that is dropping in Kenya. If someone were to speak-up their life expectancy and the lives of their family members would be put in jeopardy.
As ridiculous as this is for a pro athlete to do, she'd fit right in here on letsrun.
Ridiculous according to 20th century etiquette
when I think about it as objectively as possible, I really can’t see any problem with the comment at all
its just traditional ideas about how an athlete should act which say this is wrong
especially given it’s on twitter. People can be much more open and relaxed and edgier when the situation is “unfollow me if you don’t like it”. It’s different than a press conference, for example
and it’s patently absurd for someone to be here on LRC, consenting to reading the rubbish posted here, and then taking exception to her comment. And it’s because she’s a world class runner that it’s a problem? That should grant her more privilege, not less.
