Samuel for the win!

So, you don't think that Webb was clean?

this is a weird post. True is a pretty no nonsense guy. Not one who makes excuses for himself.

what about True calling out Kiprop and his agent on Twitter but not acknowledging his agent (aurumsports) as a group who represents dathan ritzenhein and kara goucher, both of whom have recent allegations about PED's against them. i personally, couldn't care less, but it's hypocritical

true is kind of a whiner. i hope he does well on the roads and i like him as a runner though.

he should probably just continue to develop his coffee business...

You're a moron. It's much better for the general quality of the forum if morons just keep quiet.

Certainly not.

-3:53 in high school, during the EPO era - red flag one

-only capable of running well under the tutelage of Raczko - red flag two

-the fastest time of the post El G era, while being completely, abnormally jacked, in a tiny meet in Belgium - red flag three

Yeah that 3:49 indoor mile (all time #2) definitely proved that he'll never amount to anything.

Tells you how great Alan Webb is. A full 3 seconds better.

Wow, and I thought Ingebrigtsen only wanted to get into the International Mile. He could be pulled to a mind-boggling time.

Yeah and his recent win probably gave him tons of confidence. I’m thinking he goes under 3:53

If they cut out the slower Americans that have no chance to compete against the world's best, it would be a better race.[/quote]

So........you're saying non Americans on epo?

This, with one major re-write.

Forgot Paul Chelimo was known as Specialist Japslap in the

USAR, a water specialist. But the, pardon the pun, of all

American runners is Ed Cheserek, the dark horse of

American running, I like his disposition,

"...You try harder and get better each day. I like being better

each race. There is no reason to run if you don’t."

I have a feeling he'll (Cheserek) will time trial this race.

Ingebrigtsen is a very promising runner, but I don't see him getting close to Kwemoi's World Junior Record of 3:28.81. He has another year as a junior, though. I can see him running low 3:30's next year.

Keep reading the subject and hoping it is a field of the ladies. Like SFH in her prime.

Yeah a doped up runner who can't even come close to running his times when he was "18".

Should we expect a fast race from Chelimo?

Here's what he said on Flotrack interview (first 20 seconds of the video).

"My greatest goal is going to races and everybody says, 'Yeah, Paul Chelimo is in this race; you know what that means: it's gonna be a fast race!' That's how I want people to look at me!"

Completely irrelevant. There's a pacer, he doesn't need to push the pace.

were there no pacers in Shanghai? Im pretty sure the Shanghai 5k was on sub 13 pace until the pacers dropped out.

Can't tell what your point is. If you're saying Chelimo won't push the pace then I agree.

Chelimo will break a WR. Either Cheserek or Barega FTW.

Another event where "stacked" is bad. You don't want fast people elbowing each other at the front, running 3 wide, worried about placing 10th if they try to go out fast.

You might get one of those "most under 3:5x on American soil" things, but that's just because Nike can force its people to run there and make an effort. But it's just to sell tickets, nobody believes a fast mile can be run at Hayward.
