Bro always chokes on the biggest stages. Just can’t do it when it matters the most it’s disappointing

And you think he won't suck at longer distances why, exactly?
Fast times and always top 3 at trials but never can do crap in a championship race.
he doesn't choke, he is just simply not a 26:40 guy that you needed to be to hang onto that pack for the first 7k. Can't choke if you never had that ability
Hey he was injured earlier this year, didn’t think he was going to make the team! He’s what 32? Oldest guy in the field maybe?
Still ran pretty quick considering the conditions.
People just hate because he can kick well against US guys.
His strength is in his kick, not his engine. I’m not altogether sure he is a better prospect for moving up in distance.
Agreed, that or he needs to retire
He doesn't have the dawg in him.

"suck"? huh? he made your olympic team. he's simply just not a 26'45 man. there's no shame in that. he went with the pack and died trying.
Also, for you young people on the message boards you have no idea how good 27:30 would have been for an American back in the day.
No one was doing that in a championship race. I remember Matt Tegankamp running under 13:10 in Sweden on the B circuit (Americans weren’t in the golden league) and it was the second coming of Christ/ Bob Kennedy.
Now look at the US where 27:30 at the Olympics is frowned upon

Seeing him run in person, he has an imbalance in his stride. I don't think he'd be a great marathoner, Reminds me of Emily Infeld. Like he has an injury, not smooth at all.
Time for the roads Woody

Making global teams is enough to pay the bills, he beat tons of Uber talented ppl to be able to maintain such a consistent streak.
