Except for the front row.
Oh, the E. Africans always manage to have a few actual juniors on their teams, but the overwhelming majority of their medal winners tend to be hilariously over age.

Post your own picture so we can judge you. Oh, not going to post?
:DDD let's just say that it sums you up really well, cellar dweller.
Oh so now we're at the "okay maybe these Kenyans aren't cheating" stage of cope.
The entire country should be banned from international competition.
e.g., the dude in the front row in the bottom left of the picture…hilarious.

Take it you've never been on a track team? Coaches and staff are often included in team photos.
Those guys look about the same age as my high school track team. Only U20 makes them 2 yeats older.
Whats your beef?
Look forward to them not winning a single medal this year.
Intra African junior and age group competitions in all sports tend to be more legitimate. There are fierce arguments between nations about age fraud to the point where the start of competitions sometimes gets delayed because of age verifications, And, there are a few athletes who usually end up are not being allowed to compete. When it comes to World Junior competitions, you almost never see the same athletes who won school or
Intra African junior competitions. - This is not an exaggeration, every top-3 mark on 400m is the result of age cheating.
The World Junior record for the girl's 800m is 1:54.01 and boy's is 1:41.73; girl's 1500m 3:51.34 and boy's is 3:28.81; the boys 10,000 is 26:37.93 and the marathon is 2:03x. I know kids are running faster these days, but most of these times were produced decades ago.
That photo show the children of the track team members.

There is literally nothing honest about age group competitions in Africa.
Everyone of them is doped to the gills.
As an expert in human behavioral psychology it would appear the over-agers predominantly and subconsciously lined themselves up in the front row.
Exactly! You know why so many ppl posted down? They look down on Africans no matter what age they are! I can't wait to see Phanuel, 18 yrs old, beat everybody in the 1500.
