I think it's fun reading all the Teg 10k jokes. They inspired me to create a petition for Teg to run the 10k. So, my fellow letsrunners, let's petition to get Teg to run the 10k. Feel free to predict his time.
I say 27:30.
Teg, Please run the 10k for us.
He was 4th in the WC 5k. So it's not like he's struggling horribly and needs to move up. Granted I think he should run one, but in an Olympic year, stick to the event you know.
It's going to happen one of these days!
... and then the next day, the Apocalypse.
I will sign this one if you sign mine to get him to run the 110 high hurdles.
Signed: The 3:30 Thonster
Do it Teg!
yeah.... why should he? he just had a pretty amazing year focusing on the 5k. How about the USATF forces its athletes to run a "meet for the morons"
100: reese hoffa vs adam cantwell
200: brian sell vs an elephant
400: tyson gay vs lagat
800: jeremy wariner vs kipkichir's ghost
1500: alan webb vs "pressure"
steeple: fam vs his ego vs a 4 year old kenyan
10k: matt tegenkamp vs a prius
I mean come on man.... LEAVE THE DECISIONS TO THE ATHELTES & COACHES.... do you really think you know better than they do?
NEWSFLASH TEG ALREADY HAS RUN A 10k AT THE BIG 10 CHAMPIONSHIPS IN 2002, HE RAN 29.59 TO PLACE 4TH.
the NEXT TIME TEG runs a 10k maybe he can skip the 28 minutes entirely and run 27 minutes and change.
and yes the caps are on purpose, teg has already run a 10k, the berlin wall has fallen, it has been proven the world is not flat etc.

No, No, No.... You got it all wrong. Its Salazar vs his protege (Michael Johnson) in the 200. Everyone knows who Michael copied his stride from.
OK, I'll run one at the Badger Twilight meet.
If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
at least this important year.

Is there a rule against attaching a helium balloon to yourself while running a road race?
Am I living in the twilight zone? The Boston Marathon weather was terrible!
How rare is it to run a sub 5 minute mile AND bench press 225?
Mark Coogan says that if you could only do 3 workouts as a 1500m runner you should do these
Move over Mark Coogan, Rojo and John Kellogg share their 3 favorite mile workouts
Red Bull (who sponsors Mondo) calls Mondo the pole vaulting Usain Bolt. Is that a fair comparison?
