Where Your Dreams Become Reality

Quote of the Day:
“I don’t feel I am in 100 per cent shape. I don’t want to be in 100 per cent shape yet. I think I have lots of time to sharpen up. I run the competitions like Oslo to see where I am and to see how the competitors race. I want to be in 100 per cent shape at the Olympics.”
-Sudan's 18 year old  Abubaker Kaki speaking  prior to his 1:42.69. The quote comes from a great profile of the teenage who talks about what any Olympic medal would mean to him and his country, Sudan.  Kaki will run the world juniors as he says his country needs him to win. Ultimately, he hopes to be an 800/1500 star like Coe.

If you thought after Prefontaine & Bislett, the good pro meets were over for a while, you were dead  wrong:
IAAF Ostrava Meet Coming Thursday -
Watch Meet Online at WCSN.com at 1 pm Thursday (2 hr Delay)
*Tentative Entries/Schedule  *Meet Website
Preview of Thursday's Fantastic Meet in The Czech Republic The meet is going to be a great one. First of all, the two new world record holders will race. Usain Bolt will run his first 200m  of the year as Tirunesh Dibaba will run in the best ladies 10k of the year as 3 others with pbs better than 30:40 will compete and Linet Masai will make her 10k debut. Jeremy Wariner will go for a world's best in the 300 meters and Abubaker Kaki and David Rudisha will renew their rivalry at 800 meters. Plus a great men's 5k and a world record attempt in the women's 1 hour run.

LRC: The Week That Was What a week it was as Bislett and Prefontaine were simply amazing. We recap all the action across the globe and help put it all in perspective. The action was so amzaing it seems almost unbelievable - from a woman running 14:11, to a teenager running 1:42, to a Brit winning the Dream Mile, to the world champ in the men's 800 being totally ignored on the US tv broadcast. Plus we give everyone a history lesson about the incredible 1982 Dream Mile, where the American, Irish, and New Zealand national records were all set (and all stood for 25 years, video of the mile as well).

Profile Of Track's Newest Teenage Sensation: Abubaker Kaki The 18 year old talks about his idol (Wilson Kipketer) and his desire to be an 800 and 1,500 man like Seb Coe. The scary thing is his coach Jama Aden thinks the 1,500 will ultimately prove to be his best event. He also talks about how much his success means to his country of Sudan.*2nd Profile Of Kaki

LetsRun.com London Men: Lel Leads 3 Under 2:05:30!!!, Ryan Hall 2:06:17

Ryan Hall Goes Through Halfway on World Record Pace
The 2008 Flora London Marathon will be remembered for a long time. The lead pack of 9 went through 5k at 14:21 (2:01 pace). They continued together (yes, all 9) through halfway on world record pace (1:02:13). Ryan Hall then went to the front soon after and asked the pacemakers to go FASTER. Soon Hall was off the back, but he would catch the leaders briefly again and go on to run 2:06:17. (Until Sunday, only 7 guys had ever run under 2:06:15, now 11 have.). Up front, it came down to a 3-man battle over the final mile before Martin Lel got his 3rd straight World Marathon Major win over the final quarter mile as he led 6 guys under 2:07 and to $50,000 bonuses each. Recap, photos, video above

This Guy Has Totally Won Back Our Respect

Maasai Warriors Finish Marathon link fixed One of them went back to the course and finished the race a day after being forced to go the hospital after a ceremonial wrap cut off his circulation. He said, "It was very important for me to do this. This is what I came to England for."

LetsRun.com Ryan Hall Reflects On his Incredible Run
We tell you (and let you watch) what Ryan, his dad, his grand-dad, his coach and even Martin Lel had to say about Ryan. Lel was full of praise for the American and shocked by Ryan's attempt to get the pacemakers to go even faster. If Hall didn't already have your respect, he does after reading this article as he pays homage to a throwback type of guy - Steve Jones. Text and Video.

performance was simply amazing. Running in 78-80 weather she smashed the world 5000m record. She averaged 4:15 each 1500m and ran her last 1500 in 4:06-4:07. (Jen Rhines ran a 14:54 pb) In other action, in the much anticipated 800m matchup between teen sensations Abubaker Kaki and David Rudisha, Kaki was simple amazing. He led coming into the homestretch, then blew away the field the final 100m running 1:42.69, the first sub 1:43 clocking in 5 years and a junior world record as Rudisha ran a pr but lost for the first time in 12 races. . Pamela Jelimo showed 1:55s are easy for her as she clocked a 1:55.41, Samitova-Galkina ran a 9:14 steeple, and Andrew Baddeley went sub 3:50 to get the big upset in the mile that we're sure everyone in Britain will be writing about tomorrow. Jeremy Wariner ran 43.98, his first sub 44 clocking before the Trials. Despite our harping on his decision to switch coaches, he's running very well. (nonetheless, his lost may have cost him $200,000)

LetsRun.com fans celebrated with Rojo, Wejo, Matt Taylor, and a few legends in the sport, including former marathon world record holder Steve Jones and Olympic Silver Medallist Sonia O'Sullivan. The Harpoon beer was flowing, DJ Inkognito kept things going and contrary to popular opinion there was a healthy mix of males and females. The reviews were excellent. "It's refreshing not to see the same 50 people (industry insiders) at a party." "Most favorable female to male ration I've seen in a long time."
