A deserving champ.

Not even a MF sniff!
Very impressive. No rabbit and he just destroyed everyone.

His stride is like butter. An absolute beast
centro = done
craigathor = too much wind resistance
Ingebrigtsen to get bronze at some point? Seems like Makh will get busted at some point.
Centro seemed torn out there. He either needed to stay right on Cheriyot's shoulder. Or he needed to sit on that 2nd group and run to kick for silver. He was definitely uncomfortable being the rabbit for the chase group in a fast race
Centro: not bad for like your 5th race of the year. Learn from your mistakes in preparation! This race was perfect for you & you weren't ready.
Fantastic victory, he blew the field , opened the track like if it was the red sea.
No tactical bullshit, no being afraid, no hesitation, he went for the kill at the start, started under world record pace to create a gap big enough to secure the victory.
That was the race of a true champion. Ingebrigtsen sure seem to like the honour places.

Jakob may get busted at some point.
Might be the first race I've seen Centro be poor tactically. Chasing in the scenario was not the right move.
LRC web guy’s son, Hank, watched the race. I think he’s 3. Erik says he said ‘why is he so many feet away from them ‘

Hopefully - he wont be able to hide away and go full throttle for 3 years with Tokyo in 10 months time.
Tim ran a brilliant and brave race, and I'm happy for him, delighted if he's clean. But let's not forget the ZDF investigation and the Manangoi's mysterious fall from grace this season. If they go down, so does Tim.
Memories of Bayi at the Commonwealth Games!
- Because Centro thought he was running a 5K!
Some dude who ran at Ole Miss just finished the 2019 track season as the 10th best 1500m runner in the world.
The BBC's cameras were on the chase pack for the entire last lap because it was obvious that this was a race for 2nd place
Did anyone think anybody else would win? The only way Cheruiyot would have lost is maybe getting tripped and shoved by the "dirty" Ingebritsen... he could not catch him anyway to try and trip him....

I was actually hoping these two characters would snag medals. Wanted Jakob to get the third one though. Ah well. Potatoes is beyond suspicious. Not a fan.
