But if she doesn't have the speed to beat Hassan, why should she focus on the exact events Hassan says she'll focus on?

1) At 1500 m her PB is 4 seconds slower than that of Hassan, at 5000 m her PB is also 4 seconds slower than Hassan's, where would you give her better chances?

2) Hassan ran her european record in a paced race, Klosterhalfen ran 14:26 completely on her own.

3) In the 5000 m there are less girls that can beat her than in the 1500 m.

4) The longer the distance, the more competitive her closing speed gets. In the 1500 m she would have to be able to run the last 200 m or so much faster than she currently can, but in the 5000 m or 10000 m it is enough to have a fast last 800 m or 1500 m.

5) Klosterhalfen didn't improve her 1500 m time since 2017, at the same time she improved her 5000 m time by 25 seconds this year in a solo run. Where do you see more potential for her?

But she didn't beat Ottey's meeting record. ;) Also according to one of the Danish commentators, Ottey has apparently represented Slovakia. :facepalm:@hckosice

    • Yeah. It was pretty bad that they cancel the contract with the original creative director after 7 months of work. I feel like politics, in this particular context of the changing of prime minister and the cabinet, may had caused changes in organizational decisions regarding the Sea Games including the direction of the opening ceremony. 
    • That's what I figured.  Wouldn't be a proper lead up to an Olympics without some media-fueled fearmongering.  
    • Today : Jordan 3-0 Egypt  This team will surprise us
