I am with you there, though I also think maybe Tergat is just going to sit back and watch them surge the starch out of each other for a few more km. Possibly he has not been responding not because unable but out of veteran wiles.

Wow..Tergat moved to the lead for the first time |

There goes Tergat, pressuring Asmerom. |
| GTF |
| ||
|
I think maybe he juked them into surging again, he just tucked in behind again. |

But then he fell to the back of the pack and now is in 3rd |
| GTF |

|
It has to make them all nervous to see Tergat pull up beside them. |
| GTF |
| ||
|
Even if it does not pay off in a win for Tergat, he is looking crafty out there and the front three seem a bit panicked. |

|
The same five in the lead pack. |

Rios looks at his watch every five seconds; is he late for a lunch date? |
| zatopek |

|
lots of maneuvering (sp?) but they are running relatively slowly |
| GTF |

|
Guta seems to be relying on his wiles, too. Tergat is just playing little mind games with the other three, conserving his energy as he induces them to surge away. |
| GTF |
| ||
|
They are not getting away from Tergat, not at all. The wind was his friend today. |

With 4K to go, Shimizu pushes the pace but now Tergat in definite 3rd place. |

I didn't realize Tergat is 39. Just a year away from being a Masters runner |

Tergat stalking in 4th. |

Masters WR is his if he wants it. Until Geb wants it, anyway. ( ; |
