The only person shown congratulating her was her NOP team mate Houlihan.

Shelby Houlihan doesn't run for NOP dipshit.

Yes, Nike/Schumacher not NOP. Thank you for the correction. So who else did you see congratulate Hassan?

Not being a troll, but in all honesty, how did her breasts reduce that much? What is she 26? Medically speaking, what's the deal?

Hassan is clean, she's just full of legal supplements and lean and light as a feather.

That's a strong statement to make considering her coach has just been done for doping, both violations and being in possession of illegal drugs and has many, many more doping accusations from whistle blowers. What's more she couldn't get to the NOP fast enough when these allegations came out. I say that as a former big fan but her reputation is mud and she only has herself to blame.

Lol. I still remember the ladies' 1500 in London 2012 - this one looks worse.

Which race looks worst? Doha or London? The London 1500 was slow until Alptekin exploded on the last lap and smoked everyone (she even best Tomashova who is Russia's most prolific & fastest mid-d doper of the last 15 yrs. Lol).

Doha. It was fast until Hassan exploded on the last lap and smoked everyone, running almost a world record without pacer after a slow-ish start, including super star Kipyegon.

Four (4) women were busted from that race all for ABP-hematological infractions (the two Turks, one Russian & the Belarusian). What I can't figure out is how they can get four runners from London for ABP violations and none (so far anyway) from a much, much faster race at Doha?

Don't forget the timeline. Doha just happened. We didn't hear anything from London 2012 until Alptekin's rumors in 2013, and her ban was announced in 2015, a full three years later. Bulut's case was even later.

Plus now the athletes and their teams here are so much more experienced in staying below the ABP thresholds. (Well, the Kenyans are learning that the hard way right now.)

Here we go again - everybody does but the Kenyans are getting caught because they are stupid.

And I'm the racist for rhinking that, no, Kenya has a doping problem.

I never said any of the above. Seriously, why do you lie so much?

Sifan wasn't a "decent national runner" in the Netherlands. If you followed running even a little during that time you'd have known she was top 5 in the world (with bad coaching).

No need for a personal attack. One could argue the same about Paula. E.g., 4th and 5th in Olympics in 2000 and 1996. And then came her outstanding 10,000 in 2002, and after that there was no stopping her (until she got flagged for the 2nd time with her suspicious blood values).

Casusl Obsevski obviously has the hots for Sifan.
