  1. Aww genzebee is so nice. Omg I take 7 mins to run 1500m, welp I got a whole lot to improve
  2. i started crying for her as soon as she crossed the finish line😭😢👏
  3. I laughed when I heard the commentator state that Sifan Hassan of the Netherlands was "embarrassed" to "have the camera on her" because she had covered her face with her hands. That is very funny indeed for those, who actually know the reason why Siffan covered her face. This is comedy generated by a typical misunderstanding of the cultural nuances of others. Sifan happens to be a Muslim. She put her hands up her face to pray. Many Muslims do that a lot, especially at the end of their prayer, while reading a soora of the Koran. Ethiopian runners, most of whom are Orthodox Christians, like Dibaba, cross themselves before the race and after. Muslims pray by holding their hands up in the air and finish by covering their face while reciting the Koran. Muslim prayer is more elaborate than that of Christians and is done more frequently every day. It is like going to church five times a day. Christians must be relieved knowing that they only have to go to church once a week on Sundays.
  4. can you please apload 5000m women full race? thanks
  5. lol I run a 6:20 mile
  6. that Moroccan chick is surprisingly hot
  7. So happy for those three women!
  8. I can't stop watching this great stuff.. congratulations Kipyegon
  9. Incredible race from Faith. But Genzebe should have pushed the pace earlier I think.  Incredible focus from Jenny to reel in the bronze!
  10. I hate being in a slow starting 1500!! This one team in my league always starts so slow and it messes me up because I'm the kind who sprints. My 300m split was nearly 10 seconds slower than my average!!!! Screwed me up so much and I was scared I went too fast, and I'm usual good at guessing my pace
  11. Their pedestrian rythm is my ultra speed.
  12. Incredible Jennifer Simpson
  13. That's slow for a women's 1500? they ran the first 400 in 1:01, that's my PR in the 400 😩
  14. Why has the men's race not been posted?
  15. The cameraman really messes this great clip at 10.15 just watch. "And Kipyegon has gotten to Dibaba @the 200m," great commentary, and we are all like, lets see this!!! lets see this!!!!............ then the cameraman unprofessionally decides and switches to the lady Hassan at position four for eons. And we are left with great commentary to fill our imagination of what could be happening at Kipyegon/Dibaba gold rush.....Oooooohhh!!!! Shoddy job Mr. Cameraman. Hellooo this was the Olympic finals. Dont shoot your favourites.
  16. My hats off to Faith Kipyegon, that 22 year old gal just gave it all. I guess she had studies Dibaba over several races. Its takes a great challenge from a great runner like Dibaba for a youngster to believe. And yes she did. Great run by the east Africans.
  17. Ooh Faith u did it I can watch this over and over again bila kuboeka bcauz she's my favorite gal
  18. Wow that is what I have to say
  19. I love running
  20. The Men's & Women's 1500 were very similar. Slow start, tactical sprint finish. Makes it more entertaining. Awesome to see Americans taking home Gold & Bronze in the 1500.
