Have been at multiple Olympics and WC. So many dodgy athletes. Mo being top of list. I remember being at Euro xcountry in dublin circa 2011 and he could only finish 2nd collapsing at finish against poorish field. Next thing he was at london where i watched him live... i just thought Wow WTF. He subsequently missed 2 tests and Salazar gets bust...if it walks like a duck...

He's spot on as always.

He’s a brilliant pundit and isn’t partisan as other ex American athletes would be. I remember Carl Lewis used to be ridiculous when he was commentating for the BBC
Best voice too

Aye, hell of a run, I expect he’ll knock a decent chunk off his PB next year based on this!

Eh?
She decided against it, so its not true.
'I am clean' - Watch Hassan's angry outburst and Johnson's response
World 1500m champion Sifan Hassan hits back at critics after her coach Alberto Salazar was banned for doping violations but Michael Johnson says she must expect to be under scrutiny.

Basically, if youre that passionate about being 'clean' and that angry about being accused..... dont fecking join the coach who is in the middle of being investigated for being s drug cheat! Nail on head from Johnson.
Superb, so gutsy. I thought he had it but obviously expended a lot catching them up.

Chicago i think. With his old training buddy Galen Rupp. Most of the top runners dont do the World Champ marathon as they make no money from it - remember they only race twice a year so they dont have many opportunities to make some dosh.

How slow was that first leg for GB in the 4 x 400m relay?
We'd been in with a chance of medal otherwise.

Johnson is a quality presenter - really knows what he is talking about
Given they ran a couple of seconds faster than they have previously I think they were just not quite good enough - although that Jodie Williams should consider running 400

The poles seem to have really broke into the athletics medals.

He’s starting to get close to Richie Benaud as my favourite ever
