2:14.2 indoors does not equal 2:12 outdoors. The new banked tracks are faster than flat ones.
For 1000m on a 200m banked track (or oversized flat track) you divide by 0.9864 to get it's value on a 200m flat track.
2:14.2 /0.9864 = 2:16.05.
"Banked 200m Tracks and Oversized Tracks (+260m) - research conclusion - there is NO statistical
difference found between performances on a “Banked 200m Track†(BT) and that of an “Oversized Trackâ€
(OT). Therefore, the NCAA has standardized their conversions between flat 200m tracks vs BT/OT
facilities. "
BT = banked tracks, what Souleiman ran on
OT = oversized tracks.
http://www.trackie.com/track-and-field/Articles/cis-indoor-track-conversion-ratios/13027/There is no wind and the temperature is controlled for indoors.
With what's happened with his coach Aden, he was probably doped to the eyeballs anyway.
Kiprop is not a superior runner than the doped up Souleiman over 800, which is closer to 1k than the 1500.
It wasn't windy in Birmingham. The LJ was starting at same time and the women's 100m hurdles was the next event, 18 mins later.
The wind reading for the women's race was 0.3m/sec. It was sunny and the temp was 23C. Perfect conditions.
http://static.sportresult.com/sports/at/data/2016/birmingham/re1250040.pdfThe men's LJ had a highest reading of 2.0m/sec, but the average wind speed of all the jumps in the competition was 0.31m/sec. Identical to the women's race.
http://static.sportresult.com/sports/at/data/2016/birmingham/re0830040.pdfKiprop was paced and had total protection from wind up to 1000m.
His laps were paced well, 54.9, 57.0, 55.8, 41.6.
He went through 1200m in 2:47.7.
He had all the ingredients for a fast run and only needed a 54 flat at bell to run a 3:27. He only managed 55.6.
He was in 3:29 form, nowhere close to 3:27.
He certainly wasnt in 3:27 shape in Rio.
He ran 48.9 in training with competition in 2011.
How you can get 46.0 based on a run of 48.9 is beyond ridiculous.
An estimate of 47 high or 48 flat is far more realistic.
You have no actual evidence to back up that sort of time for 400m. Using your calculator is not evidence.
You assume wrong. I have seen it.
Makhloufi was drafted up to 600m. Ngeny was lucky to be paced to 750m. Most record runs at this distance only get towed to the bell.
Mak went through 600m in 1:19.0, which is 2:11.6 or WR pace. He was given perfect pacing to run at least 2:12, and it's his bad he only ran the next furlong in 27.3. It is more likely that had he gone through 600 in 1:44 mid, a 25.5 (2:07.5 pace), then he would have died terribly in the straight and been even slower.
He should have gone 26.2, 26.7 off his last 2 x 200m for a WR. He went 27.3 and then even off that much slower 200m stretch, he could only manage a 26.7. If he'd run that penultimate 200 1.1 secs faster, you think he's still going to finish as fast in 26.7?
You don't understand the physiology of running a 1000m. It's a very different event to the 8 or the 15.
