Meb winning Boston 2014
Wilson Chebet has won Amsterdam in 205 2x, closing in ~620. He was getting within 50-70m of Meb and then... slowed . The first miles of the race were strange as well. At one point the whole pack sort of stood up and started running 520/mile pace. Someone paid decent $ to make sure Meb won.

Meb and Des winning Boston. I think they both won right, but there are a lot of conspiracy theories surrounding their wins.
Also, a lot of theories surrounding the deaths of Sammy Wanjiru and Kelvin Kiptum.
Sifan Hissan still being coached by Salazar. Current coach (Tim Rowberry) seems pretty detached/unaware of her training— in interviews he struggled to recount fundamental parts of her training, and it would make sense for Sifan to remain with Salazar behind the scenes.
Dunno if I believe it but it has some logic.

There was a second shooter on the Erki Nool.
The folks running USATF don't want the sport to be popular, because they fear they'd be forced out for competent people to take their place, and fear scrutiny regarding what they're doing with any money coming in. Thus everything they do that sucks is completely intentional.
