He jumped over the tape. Ran in the newest Kiprun shoes. All alone - the course was not flat. He would have been in shape for the European record in a paced race.
He keeps on instigating quarrels (last one was in his testimony in the Gjert Ingebrigtsen court trial: He claimed that Jakob and Hoen -CO of Bislett DL-conspired against him at the Bislett Games 2023. Hard to see how this was relevant in a children abuse case, or how he could prove these claims when his own agent, and Jakob and Hoen, categorically denied them…).
And he keeps on claiming that these quarrels destroy his focus and performance in the races. I wonder if he will be able to break this spiral…

the guy is a dweeb. had his 15 min, will never be a factor on the world stage again
Some athletes have to pay to start there for their country or pay for the travel expenses. So it's not a big prestige still many stars show up.
The marathon line-up is pretty disappointing. Richard Ringer defending champion rather runs Hamburg.
Really impressed by Gressier's solo effort, 59:45 on a hilly course is no joke. Does anyone know if there’s been any confirmation on the elevation gain/loss over the full course? Would be interesting to compare his effort to flatter races like Valencia or Berlin. Also curious, what’s the feedback on the new Kiprun shoes he wore? Anyone here tried them yet?

somebody must have a strava from somebody in the race.

Gressier: I am thinking he could run a minute faster on a Valencia type course. Had A1 people behind but he's in a different league right now. 58:00-58:40 shape. What's he going to aim for this summer?

The 3000SC as per himself. That´s why he jumped over the finish line.
