Her Ethiopian gene pool has not been sufficiently tested yet. In Kenya, dozens of dopers have been caught during the last years, after Kenyan officials were forced to implement more strict doping controls.
The companies of Rosa, Hermens et co. have been operating in East Africa for 20 years already. Now Kenyans finally discover America!

He is talking about her family gene pool. They are thoroughbreds.

Because Ethiopia is the last Mohican of the African drug charade that has not been tested properly.
Here is what I noticed. Once again, arrogant sprinters could care less about anything but themselves. Here is a world record being broken, sprinting for the finish and these arrogant pr!cks are in lane 2 warming up in the home stretch like, who cares.
Ok mate pretty sure you have a template of your posts and just copy and paste on every thread
Just watched the BBC highlights show in the UK after avoiding the athletics news since Thursday. Incredible night for 1500m running and congrats to Dibaba and Kiprop.
I hadn't even heard of the guy who won the 800m so it will be fascinating to see how the rest of his season goes.
AGAIN! Why do you follow the sport if you automatically assume that everyone is on drugs...
Seriously I have a hard time comprehending how someone can be so negative about someone that has no record of drug usage. Is it that hard to just enjoy something? Where is the fun in ASSUMING everyone is a drug cheat?
Even if you believe someone is clean and they turn out to be dirty, where is the problem?
I believe in clean sport and transparency but it really aggravates me to see people who choose to spew pure drivel about events (WR being broken) that are generally considered positive moments in the sport.

Ugh, I know what you mean! I mean it's not really fair to say they should be focusing on somebody else's race when theirs is like right after, but it bugs me! Like I'm sitting there thinking one of them won't be aware of what's going on and turn into lane one, knocking Dibaba down, haha.
wow,what a run,and what an amazing athlete genzebe dibaba is ! drugs or no drugs, her talent is jaw dropping to run 3.50.My personal belief is that dibaba is doping,as were the chinese,but thats only my personal opinion,and im not accusing them,because i dont know,for a fact.It does look suspicious,but it proves the chinese records are beatable.I have a feeling the chinese will eventually rise again,but theyll never dominate,because the ethiopians and kenyans will be just too good.
What do you get when a thoroughbred dopes?
A world record.

I see that I am not the only one who noticed that.
I think the guy was Gatlin pacing up and down in lane two "oblivious" of what was going on.
I am not even sure that he realised that it was a world record. It wwas a bad sight.
May be distance runners need to warm up at the finish line when the 100m and 200m races are on. That will force Gatlin to brake hard at the 90th or 190th metre mark in order not to crush into Dibaba (warming up for her upcoming 1500m).
They need to put cones and give these runners lanes 6, 7 and 8 where htey can warm up. They spoilt the camera shot.
People who automatically assume someone in these races are doping really ruin letsrun forums. Maybe you should follow a different sport if all you do is be skeptical about athletes that have never failed a drug test. Innocent until proven guilty.
I don't really get the argument "they didn't look tired so they aren't clean." I don't know if Dibaba is clean or not but saying she didn't look tired is not a good argument. These athletes get to the point where they barely get aerobically fatigued. Even in the ncaa you'll see the top athletes like Cheserkek or Jenkins barely looking out of breath tired at the end of a race. These athletes have reached a level of fitness where when they are tired it is not necessarily outwardly apparent to viewers. Take Nick Willis after the 1500 a guy that many unanimously consider to be clean, after his 1500 yesterday he didn't look that tired, he was smiling and congratulating the other athletes. Does that mean he's dirty? No it doesn't.

Agreed completely. Why do these people even follow the sport? It doesn't seem very fun for them.
I'm a big believer in innocent until proven guilty.
Have to disagree entirely with your point. Kiprop is the finest 1500m of his generation and at the end of the Monaco race he displayed the (subtle) signs of a top athlete who has pushed themselves to the limit, Dibaba's showed none of those, and makes a mockery of the WR. Also for those saying Ethopia is clean, they did well to lead the endurance running world in a time now known as the EPO period in all endurance sport, if they were clean.
She won by six seconds in a 1500m in which Hassan and Rowbury ran 3:56 and Simpson ran 3:57.30, three times that stack up among the best non-Dibaba times in many years, discounting several Turkish cheats. In the men's 1500m, El G was followed closely by Lagat in his 3:26.12 race, just off his own WR, and by Ngeny in his 3:43.13 world record, and even yesterday, when Kiprop destroyed the field and ran 3:26.69, he was only 2.06 seconds ahead. That puts in context just what Dibaba has done. Of course, at the 5000m, Rowbury has the best time of the three behind Genzebe in yesterday's race, 33 seconds slower than her, or almost 11 seconds per mile!

Yeah, 20 years because blood doping was invented 20 years ago - wasn´t that what you said earlier, mr. "Sports physiologist"?

Or perhaps Dibaba's limit is faster than 3:50.
It clearly is, but that goes back to making a drug WR that has stood for quite some time look ridiculously easy and what this means, but hey i'm sure she is genetically amazing just like her sister, Bekele and Haile, lucky Ethiopia to have all these people who can naturally beat all those drug cheats!
RIP: D3 All-American Frank Csorba - who ran 13:56 in March - dead
RENATO can you talk about the preparation of Emile Cairess 2:06
Running for Bowerman Track Club used to be cool now its embarrassing
Hats off to my dad. He just ran a 1:42 Half Marathon and turns 75 in 2 months!
Great interview with Steve Cram - says Jakob has no chance of WRs this year
Rest in Peace Adrian Lehmann - 2:11 Swiss marathoner. Dies of heart attack.
