It is also interesting that all these superfast indoor miles seem to be in Boston.
Kejelcha 3:47.01
Gregorek 3:49.98
Rupp 3:50.92
Prakel 3:50.94
Add about 3 seconds to those times and you are in the ballpark of what they run outdoors. Why is that? It is no coincidence.
Let us see whether Gregorek and Prakel make the WC Team. They probably won’t, which should tell you that their indoor times should have an asterisk. Galen was NEVER capable of a 3:50 mile outdoors.

I rest my case.

Yeah, Al is a lousy coach... he only helped compile 5 Olympic golds for his athletes, and only an embarrassing silver and bronze for the hapless Rupp.
Hang your head in shame, Alberto!
No need to get all dramatic. Alberto is arguably not a lousy coach. Alberto is simply not on the level of Gjert Ingebrigsten. Alberto is apparently now resigned to doping East Africans after his success with Mo Farah. Now he has Ms. Hassan and Mr. Kejelcha. It is all very charming.

Charming indeed.

Galen had many bites at the apple and ends up running 3.13 seconds faster for his lifetime pb than an 18:year old Norwegian does. Alberto must really be re-evaluating his entire coaching career to know that a random Norwegian dude is a better coach than Alberto.

And now the Norwegian is more than 10 seconds faster than Galen was at 5000m. Alberto inferior to Gjert.

In chemistry?

re: NOPe

Jakob at age 20 has already had a better running career than Galen Rupp.

You are incorrect. Galen had many opportunities to run a fast 5000m and he could not do it. A 12:59 runner can run 26:44, just as a 12:49 runner can run 26:27 (Paul Tergat).
Galen is still faster, bro. Sill has a better pb than the over-hyped norweener. Facts.

Hello again…

A 24 second slowdown per 5k from 5k to 10k is a clear sign of EPO usage

It doesn’t matter what his ceiling was. I guess you would say that Galen was not mentally tough. Or that he was an underachiever.
