all these shout !!! when Michael Flippen won 22 gold medal it is pure talent where as when ayana crush every body it is suspicious DOP performance.
DO NOT FOGET THAT ALMOST THE FIRST FOUR FINISHER SCORE BELOW 30MIN. BARRIER AND THE FIRST 12 RUNNER IS THEIR PB time.
thse means, for those who open their big mouth all the 12 athletes are Dopper. i read most of the comment, i can say only most of them are either moron knew any thing abot athletics or jealousy jealousy jealousy
cote from IAAF PAGE " So if this is not the finished package, how much faster can she go in the future?
“I think that was only 90 percent,†says Pitsiladis. “There’s 30 seconds more there.â€
Hermens is in agreement. “Passing all the athletes for the second half of the race, how much can she still gain?†he asks. “Her progression is astonishing.â€
Much of that can be put down to Ayana’s lost years or, to put it better terms, the years she spent believing she was a steeplechaser. That was largely her focus up until 2013, when she began to concentrate more on the flat events, lowering her 5000m best to 14:25.84 in Paris.
“I’m not naturally gifted with speed so I concentrated on endurance,†said Ayana. “My plan was to move slowly from 5000m to 10,000m, but I didn’t want to move up too early.â€
It seems she waited until just the right time. In the aftermath of her record run, Ayana was typically reserved, a quiet smile crossing her face instead of any delirious celebration.
“They are very quiet, laid back and relaxed people,†says Hermens, when asked about Ayana and her husband. “She’s a sweet, nice girl, which you see in her reactions.â€
Given her nature, that’s an attitude she’s likely to maintain in the years to come, regardless of how fast she runs.
Which, if you listen to those close to her, will be exceptionally fast."
