Ronald Kwemoi had a stellar 2017 season before injury including winning 3000m Doha in ridiculously fast 7:28 and winning the Bowerman mile beating a field that included eventual world champion Manangoi splitting last 100m in 12.3. I though I saw him on the early entry list for Prefontaine 2 mile but in the most recent list, him and another notable Keljelcha seem to be missing. What happened to Kwemoi since London World Championships? Is he still injured? EPO cycle? Renato??
Ronald had a stress fracture during the race in Monaco, that was not identified immediately. For that reason AK forced him to run WCh without any training after Monaco, and he continued to feel pain in the tibia. After he went Japan for finishing his contract with a Japanese company, and ran an easy race in 3'42" still feeling pain.
He started the preparation in November in Iten, always with the same problem, so, when I was there, I spoke with the management, for organizing a full investigation in Nederland. That investigation showed a bad stress fracture, needing about 3 months for disappearing (normally 7 resting weeks are enough).
Ronald resumed training again at the end of April, running in alternated days. Now is in training for one session per day, and from about 10th June start to increase his training. This means this year is practically over, but with a similar talent, the most important thing is to recover the total efficiency looking at next year.
And, please, when you speak of Ronald let stay EPO very far......

No offense but everyone saw this injury coming ...
What are you going to do differently once he’s healed?
Sounds like he’s got some work to do before he wins the Olympic 5k in 2020 ?
Why was he entered in the field to begin with if he didn't even run until the end of April??? According to this article (https://www.iaaf.org/news/news/eugene-2-mile-field) he was announced in the field on April 18, 2018. Hmmmmmm...... something doesn't add up

I don't think elites enter their races the week before.
He probably agreed to run in the event last year.

Thanks for this, Coach.
This is why you never have to believe in articles announcing the athletes running in some event long time before the meeting. Since at that time Ronald was completely out of training (he was not yet allowed to jog too), it's clear that the management NEVER entered him in some race, and the article is fruit of the imagination of the organizers, who far from the race put a lot of big names for enhancing the interest and the expectation around the event.
When a Kenyan (or a Etiopian) is injured, is it not in his interest to go down at sea leavel in order that his revovery is faster?
I imagine that it is difficult for them to leave their family, but is it not in their interest?
I have remarked that, when I am in attitude, my revovery process is largly slower than at sea lever (I imagine due to the lack of oxygen).
Thank you!
Certainly doesn't add up. Even if he signed in the fall, by the time it was announced it was known by managers etc that he was out. Fishy!
