Yikes. Officially bringing this around so it can bite him.Gordon: "What are you expecting out of the London race Are you hoping it's going to be a 13-flat race?"
Ryan Hill said:
"I don't really know if it's going to be that fast. Typically those 'Mo Shows' aren't really that quick."
Mo served up a picture perfect race for Hill, and Hill wanted no part in it after about 1000m.
Dear US runners: I love you. I want you to win medals. Please stop talking...and thinking....and just run and do well.
Ryan Hill is a coward
Why didn't he go with MO as it was an honest race ?
Whinny mama's boy
Mo shut him pretty quick
I bet he will wipe " slow mo show" from his vocabulary now
LOL, got called out by Mo

Because he has said he likes slower races himself?

Thanks for posting that. HA!
Mo seemed really happy to see Gordon. I almost got the impression that they had rehearsed the exchange about Hill, as Mo had the response ready to go quick as a whip.
Ha then farah quoted him after breaking 13:00 min in the 5k. That's awesome. The thread is kind of infamous now.
Hill is the most humble guy I know. He was just speaking the truth and Mo Farah took the bait. I doubt Mo was truly offended.

He might be humble, but he should not have used the phrase "Mo Shows." He learned that lesson. Although, to be honest, this WAS a Mo Show -- but only because Mo absolutely dominated him at a pace he couldn't hang with.

I'm sure that Hill is actually faltered that Mo actually knows who he is and furthermore what he said. Hill's all time best world ranking (by time) is 14th... Mo certainly doesn't lose sleep over Hill, but at least he knows his name.
Good for Hill.
In 2016, Hill is currently ranked 44th...
In that interview after the race where Mo alluded to Hill's comment, Mo was being cheerful, laughing a lot, joking...until he said, "I did this for Ryan Hill." Immediately before and afterwards, Mo was giggling and goofy, but during the few seconds when he was saying that, he sounded ice cold.
I guess that Mo really didn't like that comment. I was surprised; I assumed it would be no big deal to him.

Humble my A%^...he took a shot at Mo and got his A$# handed to him. Mo actually said it with a bit of humor. Fast pace or slow pace Mo is head and shoulders above Ryan anyday. Pretty funny stuff!!
Waiting for Andy Vernon to try and jump in and comment
If MO was offended, he should get over himself.

True.
Mo is not a nice guy.
Oh my god, you people are on such high alert for any sort of controversy. Ryan Hill's remark isn't remotely denigrating toward Mo. It's not even that interesting. Just a very mild one-liner. You guys are like children. Your hot takes and feigned outrage are boring, and they exist in a vacuum. It's a perfect encapsulation of Letsrun.
You guys are missing something here.
If Mo heard about this. What else is Mo reading/watching?
Hi Mo!

So you disagree that Mo's 5k championship wins are typically in slow races?
anyone racing Mo Farah in the 5k in Rio is essentially racing for second place. The dude ran basically ran 3:31 and 12:59 in the same week.no one in the 5000m is even close to that (Lagat was 10 years ago)If Farah stays healthy and out of trouble, he's the winner. Kamworor better be fit in the 10k, because he ain't gonna out kick FarahI'm not a Farah fan, but I'm very impressed. He and Rupp and sticking their noses out in races and going for it.Fast PB's aside, if Farah wins double gold in the olympics, he's probably the best distance runner ever in terms of winning. That'd be 9 out of 10 WC and Oly championships. dude knows how to win, and probably cannot run much faster than his PB's, which is kind of cool he's found a way to make it happen.too bad he seems like a bellend jerk
