      • i have to have a laff !!!

        i've been saying for years that women's 1500 was p!ss-weak

        now does it seem so far-fetched when it was suggested that her bigger sister couda gone 3'53 outdoors in her 5kwr shape ???!!!

      • Dang. Double dang.

        To think she was a cross/5000 runner until she realized it would be too long before she could beat her sister there!

      • off note

        the fastest non-chinese/ruskie time is boulmerka's 3'55.30 from gold run in '92

        genze's indoor time is already quicker & probably at least 2s outdoors, ->

        3'52/3'53

      • this is just the beginning
        expect 'unexpected' times across the board
        igf-1 r3 + hematide + resveratrol
        it's going to be a big year..

      • have to wait for splits, but 2'09+ is 4'02 pace !!!

        when we get the splits, it will probably indicate an even-pace time around

        3'53i
        ( she can already have this & more like 3'51i considering she threw away coupla secs in slow pace to 800 even after evening-up splits )

        Those splits are absolutely unbelieveable...I mean she coulda run 3:52 indoors even paced, what is going on???? Is the outdoor world record in jeapordy?

        yes

        haven't look at vid carefully, but off crawling pace to 800 ( for a 3'55 ), then evenning out splits & 2 - 3s for quicker outdoor tracks, she currently has to be currently in outdoor shape of

        ~ 3'49

        Albeit her sister is extremely talented and she probably trains very hard and has near-perfect genes... something is fishy. I do believe a new substance has permeated the running scene. Few people accept the 1500 times of Ma's army. Now Genzebe is on pace to beat those?? I was skeptical of Rupp, I'm shocked by this, and I'm more or less anticipating some ridiculous times this year.

      • She was at 2:45 with 500M to go. Looks like she closed around a 56 sec 400M.

      • I thought indoors was slower than outdoors.

        How could she run faster than any non-chinese/ruskie time outdoors ever?
