Just saw Abdi, he says Marathon WR 'is fishy'

All I am saying is that the recent progression is phenomenal, and that it seems as if the possible times implied by this trajectory are beyond the imagination.

Ezkyas Sisay and Martin Fagan were Abdi's training partners and bothed banned for EPO.

Do the math.

And this means Kimetto and Mutai et al are clean?

I guess you are going to have to write out that math solution on the blackboard cuz I sure don't see it.

People with no imagination rarely do anything great.

He's saying Abdi is likely to have doped, as his training partners have.

Yes, you did miss that one.

Doping isn't about setting world records. As easily as it can turn a super-responder into the world's best (Kimetto), it can turn any other runner into a mid-level elite (abdi, as implied by TLW), or sub-elite (that Andrew Carnes character)

Of course that is what he was saying. But he was saying it to "prove" that Kimutai et al must be clean since Abdi suspects them and his training partners doped. Which, of course, makes no sense.

I am getting real tired of explaining the most simple concepts to these lowbrows.

One of the difficulties of the internet age is knowing what pieces of information are public or private. Is a conversation in a coffee shop something that the world should know about? Does Abdi expect to be quoted on letsrun every time he says something running-related?

I have problems with the OP posting something that Abdi may have said, unless he was given permission to do so by Abdi. It could have been said off the cuff or in disbelief, the tone of his meaning may have been misunderstood or it may not have been properly translated to text.

OP seems like a an absolute a-hole. Someone out this guy.

Most of us would like to run into a runner from another club at a coffee shop, shoot the breeze a bit, and not have to worry about it being attributed to us in open forum.

The funny thing is that if Abdi had been closed and refused a selfie there would be a thread about that, too. Can't win with these kids.
