Yeah not hard to figure out how that occurred. Now that the British aren't paying off the EPOpians not to push the pace early, this happens. Mo would have struggled to stay in touch with that hot of a pace.

Sucks for Jakob... he's going to spend his entire career finishing second to Barega.
If drug testing is ever fairly enacted, Jakob will do well. And Berega will fade. Of course, as a teen Jakob is faster than Berega who hasn't been a teen in five years.

Like this post. So do you thinjk he just decided to dope after Africans? Explain the logic of your thinking. I mean if you are going to dope, wouldn't you also want to dope for world juniors and african champs?
Do people really think drugs make you instantly faster, like tying a rocket on your back?
Yes, fat paleface, fake Kenyan, they do work instantly when it comes to drugs like EPO:
https://www.outsideonline.com/1924306/drug-testGreat read. Middle age guy tries out EPO, steroids, etc. Results are amazing and amusing.
The E. Africans are being ALLOWED to cheat, political forces are helping them whenever they can. It's so obvious now as to be a joke. It's gotten to the point where the sport needs a full collapse to be cleaned up. And if it can't recover, that's the way it goes. The blame can be foisted on crooks like the Rosas, Hermens, etc,. greedy African officials, and greedy, dishonest athletes who enjoy the idiocy and naivety of Westerners, fools like "El Keniano" who's pale and fat, probably looking like a more rotund version of George Costanza than any Kenyan.
Definitely smells legit , carry on .
As usual left with more questions ,
1.
Where is the speed coming from ,
Why are younger athletes running like
Adults .
IGF-1 lr3. The speed peptide working
its magic as per last decade .
getting athlete on it when young is a sure thing . more enhancement to be ,
2.
Ethiopians always seem to dope on mass for select meets or races , like doha Marathon , again onto a winner .
3.
Doping in Kenya verses Ethiopia .
And
Why are Ethiopia being left alone so far .
Is it the Italian connection or Israeli one
Ethiopia s prioritising 5k as still can dope aerobically more and finding it hard to compete with Kenya in 1500m .
In both cases know where speed and ped involved coming from and in that sense bar dibaba Ethiopia a little late to show .
Assume the Nike connection always ensure Kenya first to latest gear.
4.
What is actually happening in Kenya with doping. ,
know Nike run the show there and simply making it so doing will be for the select few
And thru certain few approved coaches
,all while pretending to Clean it up .
All this theatre with kiprop smells off
and their to distract and set example ,
Bad dopers will be disgraced ,blah blah.
The few will never test positive on Nike sauce , untested / undetecteable .
And
continue to run fast 800/ 1500m
And
Continue to run
Sub 3.30 times , that people thought might see a lot less of now that cleaning up athletics when the opposite
Still filthy only now for the select few .
When the speed peptide is outed then
People will realise how filthy track was
In a so called clean era
And then their is the sprints.
Don't be surprised if Timothy Cheruyot runs 3:25 at 1500m somewhere next year.
Well looks like jakob will not be touching any medals, anytime soon.
I don't think people understand how much of a difference Kjelcha made to that race.
That was the best set up of all time for breaking the WR.
The energy saving Barega and Gebriwhet were enjoying sat behind the best pacemaker that's ever existed are huge. Barega had someone right in front of him for 12 laps.
This means one thing: Kjelcha can break the WR. Astounding run by him.
I thought the consensus on LRC was that it was impossible to run that fast when we´re no longer in the EPO era.

Poor coaching- they aren’t leaving him enough room to improve in his college-age years. Probably trains too hard. Sure he’s good now, but how much more can he improve from 19 to 23??
POD!

notice how the only kenyan was just barely under 13:00? its only a matter of time before the axe falls on ethiopia but for now rek is prob excited and elK is sad cause his boys got crushed.
good thing im not racists, nor have any ties to my "fav" distance runners. my favorites have always been ritz and KB. doped or not just enjoyed KBs smooth form, kinda like kipketer and lagat, just so smooth
Odd that you're so anti-doping, yet your hero is KB "doped or not"- your words. Really weakens your credibility, in my opinion. At least, weakens your ability to criticise others regarding doping as you seem to constantly do.

The testers will catch up to Ethiopia by 2020. Expect a Kiprop-esque bust. This rocket-fueled "18-year-old" will never run this fast again. He actually made a grand mistake today; no logical person could look at this race and think it was legitimate.

I think we've gone from the EPO-era to the speed peptide-era....see aduck2022 above.

Ah no, no he can't break the world record.
Ingerprickstens are a welfare case next to these gazelles Ethiopians.

Yeah wanting a clean sport with legit athletes and performances. How whiny!!!
Begone, bugman.
Legit athletes like WADA declared likely dopers Jager, Rupp and Centro.
Thank you ex-runner. That s exactly what I think. The star of this 5000 is Kejelcha. Not Barega. Anyone who regularly works out/races on the track will have realized that during the race.
Bekele will keep the WR. Evan if Barega did get a WR it would be taken away from him after a drug test. He is literally doped to the gills. If he went to Starbucks and ordered a coffee he wouldn't need money. Just get the cashier to squeeze his arm and epo will ooze out. Starbucks can then sell the epo. Bekele always was the best. He could have run 12:30 in a perfect race like this one. He done his 12:37 almost literally solo and the pacing wasn't great for the 2,000m he was paced for. The guy pacing him looked like he was literally dying if you watch the video. As soon as Bekele done his 12:37 he grabbed a bunch of flowers and kept running on casually like he just done a fun run.

Say what? ?
RIP: D3 All-American Frank Csorba - who ran 13:56 in March - dead
RENATO can you talk about the preparation of Emile Cairess 2:06
Great interview with Steve Cram - says Jakob has no chance of WRs this year
Running for Bowerman Track Club used to be cool now its embarrassing
Hats off to my dad. He just ran a 1:42 Half Marathon and turns 75 in 2 months!
