I wouldn’t be so sure of that. Kipchoge was the best chance for anyone to do this any time soon and he was still almost 30 seconds away. He’s a once in a generation athlete —there isn’t anyone out there with Kipchoge’s range (1500/5K to 26.2), and there isn’t a Kipchoge waiting in the junior ranks. Assuming that…

Guess nobody in HR told coach about Separation of Church and State

can’t believe you just did Burneko like that

my brother tried to reply to this to point out that this is complete nonsense but it appears that he’s finally been banned for good, probably as a result of exercising his First Amendment right to make fun of burneko, who isn’t a big fan of any kind of exercising

The old rule was that you couldn’t have T levels within the male range, and we know she had to take inhibitors to get under that range. She’s almost certainly XY for reasons cited elsewhere in these comments.

It’s hard to say, isn’t it. They get basically every boy into track at an early age, which could explain their success. But then you look at our NFL. The NFL gets access to almost every talented male athlete, so you would be tempted to say, “no wonder they’re so big and fast and strong.” But they’re also the dirtiest…

I don’t even know what to say to this. God bless.

I can’t do this any longer. You people don’t follow this sport, and you’re saying things based on one article and a comments section. If you care to read more about this, and the very sensitive issues at play here, check out the Science of Sport. We know far, far, far more about this issue than is presented here.

Later, we realized that she had much more than this, because she had to take medication to get under the “three times” limit. Again, this is all in the articles above — you just have…
