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

 

 

well, he/she got the right continent. That´s already something :d
