So we're led to believe Hassan competed & medaled in all these events in the same week and still had the energy to shove and sprint away from the WORLD RECORD HOLDER at the finish.
World media celebrating this despite her connection to known doping coach Alberto Salazar.π€

This is unfortunate.
Why is nobody talking about Lamecha Girma? Dude was motionless and had such an horrendous fall. Not a single word on him? Get heβs not British but heβs an athlete and alot want to know if heβs okay or what updates we have?! @BBCSport do better! #OlympicGames
NBC broadcast is totally ignoring Lamecha Girma's clearly serious injury (unconscious) after that 3000m steeplechase.
Instead, focusing on the silver medalists' (USA) entire life story post race like he's Usain Bolt.
Incredibly insensitive. #OlympicGames
