I don't mind it because I enjoy watching her lose when she's absurdly overhyped by the commentators. During Boston they were even trying to pretend she had an excuse in Paris. Yeah, just like all her prior Olympic races that she forgot to win. She had no chance whatsoever against Hassan. With Assefa I wasn't sure if she had a kick but once she took off she distanced Obiri within seconds.
Obiri has always had a dodgy running form and today she just ran a 4min PR into a headwind on Boston to try and fight for the win. God forbid she be tired...

Yep and kudos to Lokedi for doing what she needed to do - take it out fast and hold on. Faster then Obiri has ever run the marathon- that’s what it took to run the kick out of her. Great racing.

I love watching her lose because I can’t stand seeing Ritz’s head swell any further as he pretends he has anything to do with her success.

Everyone is tired. Everyone’s fighting. She’s just another Kenyan doper that didn’t get caught like Kipyegon.

Yet he still managed to pop up in the finish zone laughing and smiling with race royalty. It's a good life if you can make it.
As for Obiri - classic Frog-in-a-Blender. What's genuinely impressive is how despite her upper body with all that wasted movement and energy, she has been so good and successful. You wonder if she would also be down in that sub 2.15 club if she had ever wanted to clean this up.
Her vs Hassan in an upper body battle is like watching hand to hand combat - elbows, forearms, flat palms flying all over the place.
