How about ridiculous since 1990 when they kicked this all off in the hopes of showing up well for Barcelona (and did).
Spanish sport is honestly the most secretly rotten entity in world sport. Cyclists, soccer players, tennis players, runners (and middle-long distance in particular). Zero f--ks given. Zero.
So what the point Oumaiz is pretty an unknown name.
Katir pi_ed on your heroes and got the bronze medal at Oregon in your sacred distance.
Guy made the 5,000m final, and it was a cutthroat qualification last year. His PB is nominally 13:06, but he was in better shape to make that final. Good to see another doper banned, but now we have 2 of Spain's top 3 at the distance.

“Oumaiz was born to Moroccan parents in the town of Nerja on the Costa del Sol in 1999. His father Abderrahim was a national-level distance runner in Morocco and he also coached his son during his formative years in athletics. But Oumaiz left the family home in September 2017 to further his career, taking the daunting step of moving more than 400 kilometres north to Madrid to train under the instructions of the respected coach Antonio Serrano – whose stable also includes Adel Mechaal and Javier Guerra.”
2 of their 3 best in Spain are now gone, with ties to the 3rd.
