Tim Cheruiyot 3:29.77, 0.03s behind Jakob who fell when leaning over the line

Bad night for Jakob with his 5000m competitors looking much stronger than anticipated before as well. A decent chance he goes home with no golds this olympics

What about Habz and Nader respectively ranking 3 and 4.

I told THOUGH to not neglect them.$

By the way NADER is a 1:45;11 800m (May 2024) and have beat Brian Komen in January.

As I expected Elliot is the best Brit after Kerr but hated by CoEvett.

Let's hope they both get busted before they can rob any medals from clean athletes.

Really it looked like chariot won. They must have by first shoulder across the line.

Jakob races pre 5 days ago after being in the USA for over a month. Jet lag and tired legs? Thats a hard turn around especially after a season opener after a harsh injury. Considering the variables that’s impressive for Jakob in my opinion.

Why would I hate him Passant? As far as I know, he has West African ancestry (and English). You keep repeating your scientific racist view here that West Africans can't run the mile. How do you explain Elliot Giles or Centro?

Wins a DL 1500m in 3:29: he's absolute garbage.

I remember thinking farah was going to lose in London after the 5000m in Paris diamond league also. Its typical for ethiopeans to peak early so they qualify and then underperform in the championship. Jakob is my biggest favorite for olympics still in my book

I wonder why people are surprised that Potato Tim is back. He is only 28 and has had relatively minor injury problems.

Did Cheruiyot run the mile in Eugene only 5 days ago? Where’s Kerr? Recovery jogging, massages and ice baths no doubt. Enough said.

Blah blah blah, same bs last year, literally same thing as last year. Beat ‘em 2 years in a row, hell do it again.

LOL he really dove

Yeah I'm sure the Kenyan just beamed himself up from Elorat this morning.

Man that was an awesome race. Everyone looked really strong

I recommend you to look at a map if you think you are equally jet lagged flying from Kenya as you are flying over from the US. Seriously.

The epopian paced time trials are irrelevant. No one is beating the 2000/2m world record holder in a championship 5000. Jakob will own everyone in Paris.

He is done, by August he will only be in 3:28 high shape and Kerr will smoke him. It's over his olympic dream.

Because I have this old post from (2 years) that show clearly your despise of Gilles Elliot in the 800m.

Well that's weird. I've always thought that him and Wightman are the nicest guys in athletics.

Here I am 3 years ago defending him from allegations of doping by the trolls.
