If Rudisha is in the same health/condition he is right now, he's a lock for Gold in London.
I can't see anyone taking him. He seems to win easy consistently against practically anyone. But sure I'd love to see Nick Symmonds beat him :)

after bolt , rudisha could be the dirtiest athlete
in track and field.
the fact that ,there is not one mention of doping in any
one of these threads
says it all to me on how you treat kenyans as whiter than
white than if was american,european, etc.
the two next best athletes to him timewise were obviously doping.
and again says alot.
if it looks too good to be true usually is .
nah but just like bolt , people will say that he was good
as junior as excuse and so on .
here will say that it is his long legs and his parents also
being athletes why running such times ,ect .
regardless of this still be effected by lactate buildup like everybody else
near end of race nomatter how long legs,technique etc,
could it not be this new endurance drug that doing the rounds in kenya and ethoipia and in other select places.
or combinbation of peds , dealing with the lactate ,etc.
good chance amman also on something similar ,so expect
good time from him soon .
Liu unless he gets pushed.

Can you explain degrees of dirtiness (relating to drug use) to me please? How would one hypothetical drug user be dirtier than another?

If you even have to think about the answer to any of the questions above, then no, David Rudisha is not a lock.
Absent injury or illness, Rudisha is an absolute mortal lock. He is just that much better than anyone else in the world at the moment
Does anyone know if you can wager the 800 or other events in Vegas, I'm sure there's a bookie somewhere....Anyone? Anyone? Bueller?
BUMP
Crappy pacemaker work in Paris today and still 1:41. About 30-40m lead on everyone else. He could run backwards and still win.
I stand by what I said earlier: unless he gets injured, there is no way in hell he gets beaten. Not a chance.
Stan James (UK bookmaker) go 1/8 about Rudisha winning gold.
Seems fair enough to me - he looks absolutely bulletproof. I'd thought quite seriously of getting involved if it was anywhere around the 1/5 mark, but 1/8 is just fractionally too prohibitive.
