The athlete suddenly delivered hitherto unheard of performances, that seemed "impossible" before 6.) Athlete develops injuries, even though he or she competes very little. This is a clear indication that the muscles of the athlete have been artificially enhanced to a level that is greater then what the bonesstructure, cartilege and tendons of the athlete can handle. Now lets look at the case of mrs McLaughlin and mr Kersee 1.) Her coach Bob Kersee is well known as a doping coach, there are even official testimonies against him, 2.) Before joining mr Kersee mrs McLaughlins carreers more or less topped out. Her PB was 52.23, 3.) After joining Kersee in 2020, 6 years into her carreer, her PB suddenly dropped to 51.46 in 2021 and 50.68 in 2022 4.) Since 2020 McLaughlin has never been competing more then 6 to 7 (and often less) times a year, 5.) In 2023 (pre-Olympic year) and early 2024 McLaughlin stopped competing 5.) McLaughlin developed a "minor knee injury" in 2023, even while only having run 5 races on the 400m and 1 on the 60 meter 6.) McLaughlin reappears after 1.5 year, clearly much more muscular, and faster then ever before 7.)

No, you are right---she is naturally a slow starter-----but her last-minute burst is not going to help her in Paris---Sydney will be gone by then---------Unless she works on her start, Femke Bol will be so far behind, she will be competing with Jamaica's Rushell Clayton and Shamier Little for silver or bronze in Paris.

[@rientsdijkstra4266]

When you look at her races you see that she normally kicks coming out of the last corner, taking her distance from her competitors over the last 100m, although sometimes she waits to the last 30 meters if she had no reason to work for a good time. That burst of speed in the last part is her speciality though and on the day McLaughlin will have a very hard time to keep up with her, certainly as I see how she is shaping up, and not even completely winded after this WL. As commentators said: she seems to have more in the tank, and she will improve further towards Paris.

[@ElieWeissenbach-xx1yi]

Very interesting is the comment by the great former World Record holder on the 400m Michael Johnson. He said (I quote from memory): "many coaches want their pupils to go as fast as possible from the starting block, but that is not the best strategy on the 400 meter. The problem is that if you do that you burn to much energy and produce to much lactic acid, and you will be punished for that in the last part of the race". There are many practicall examples of that, like for instance Lieke Klaver who "died" in the mixed relays because she went of to fast, and Kaczamarek who suffered the same fate in the womens 4x400 for going to fast. Femke Bol is the natural embodyment of this "Johnsonian" strategy: with her long legs she is naturally a bit slower from the blocks, but her stride is very efficient which leads to less lactic build up and less energy use, which combined with her natural ability to keep running fast and in form while in lactic, gives her that power on the last 100m. McLaughlin is much more oriented towards a fast start on the other hand. (even though Bol's coach Laurent Meuwly told that Bol is actually faster on the 2nd 100m...) It will be a very interesting confrontation of styles and strategies in Paris.
