...that the top-tier Kenyans realized the money was in the marathon? Seems like Sammy Wanjiru would have had a great chance of a 10,000m WR, and probably could've dominated the 10,000m how Bekele and Geb had.
We haven't seen a Tergat or Komen-level Kenyan runner in the 3K-10K since, well, Tergat and Komen. Seems like the marathon must be pulling away the talent.
