Bekele eyes Crystal Palace repeat Bekele saw off Mottram's challenge in 2005. World-record holder KENENISA BEKELE will defend his Norwich Union London Grand Prix 5000m title on 28 July. The Ethiopian was beaten by Kenya's Isaac Songok in his last appearance over the distance at the IAAF Golden League meeting four weeks ago in Oslo. But the 24-year-old Olympic 10,000m champion said: "I'm really pleased with my form at the moment and I'm ready to go out and run a fast time." Bekele outsprinted Australia's CRAIG MOTTRAM to win last year's race. Songok might be missing from the field but it will still be the strongest assembled at any meeting in this year's IAAF World Athletics Tour. AUGUSTINE CHOGE, who defeated Mottram for the Commonwealth crown in March, heads the Kenyan challenge. Former world champion ELIUD KIPCHOGE and BERNARD LAGAT, his former Kenyan team-mate before switching to American citizenship, also compete. Olympic 1500m silver medallist Lagat became the first male athlete to do a USA national championships metric mile and 5000m double on his recent debut in the event. |

I like how this thread has nothing to do with the Subject line anymore..... Who bumped it back up anyway?? Oh, of course..... |

Well, considering the post was made several years ago when he was a f***ing junior and hadn't set a bunch of f***ing world records and been crowned olympic champion, the original subject is kind of irrelevant you douchebag. |

Ask that question after his 5000m race Saturday. The long awaited 1500m outdoor debut will be in Stockholm (3:33.18 won last year). http://www.iaaf.org/GLE06/news/Kind=2/newsId=35238.html |

"Irrelevant".....yes, so we agree. Idiot. You mean relevant? Dumb@ss.....in which case we don't agree. First of all: At the time of post, he had run 7:30 for 3K (when he was 17, almost 18). He had already won double World Cross Country gold as well. So, it's not like the f@g that started this thread found the guy jogging through the woods and predicted he'd be the world record holder. He was basically there already!!! He just needed to step on the track and concentrate for 12.5 laps. Now, regarding whether or not this thread is still relevant: The subject is "How soon will he....." Well, he did. Like 3 years ago. So the question was answered. End of thread. .....if it weren't for jack@asses like you who encourage the f@g's constant promoting of his own threads. |

College grad You getting all worked up over someone else and their time and thoughts. I think its time I left you as your negative remarks scream your infatuated with the poster you belittle. If he is promoting his own threads and like to speak about an athlete, whats the difference when you come right behind him and bump the thread with your negative remarks? Are you jealousy because that male isn't showing you the kind of attention he and others show Kenny B? If you knew so much you would know that he was 18 already when he ran 7:30 and he hadn't won double Gold at anything, YOU MORON! All that was stated later in the thread in which you should read and re-read because it seems you know alot less than you think (ROFLMAO). PREDICTIONS on what Kenny B. will the 1500m in at Stockholm? |

Uuuuhhhhh.....jack@ss.....please read the first post on this thread. I have nothing else to say about your idiotic response. Here it is: "When Kenenisa ran 7:30.67 WJR as a 17 year old (few months shy of 18) the world know that he was very talented; however, in 2003 we may see the beginning of his dominance. In 2002 he became the first man to hold both long and short x-country titles EVER and he did it in the same meet against two talented fields. In the last month after recovering from an injury, Kenenisa have began again: 1. winning his first x-country race in an easy romp 2. blazing thru 1st kilo of Ekiden race in approx 2:28 and finishing in 13:07! 3. destroy good field in Belgium most prestigous x-country race and winning by over 1 minute and 14 second over S.Lebed (Urk)* (*World X-Country silver in 2001) In 2002 many may not remember however as a teenager Kenenisa outkicked many kickers on the European circuit; therefore, he have a great kick. I don't think Hicham have a chance in the 5000m at all now! Kenenisa will force the pace and break Hicham before 3500m if Hicham even runs the World 5000m. Vipam" |

College Grad Your the one that's so angry this thread is continuing as if you know everything about the thread, author, and its subject. The author went on later to correct the age of Kenny B.; however, you apparently didn't take time to read. That just shows your one of those kamikaze posters who read the title and first couple paragraphs of a book or article and pretend to know all the material. What a twisted and sad life you must live. I think Kenny B. will run around 3:34.1 in his debut 1500m at Stockholm. |

Who cares if he was 17 or 18? The POINT is he was ungodly fast as a teenager.....BEFORE this thread started. I think you know that, but you refuse to not have the last word. He had run 7:30 and won double CC gold before this thread started. True? |

Vipam, What happened to Boniface Kiprop? I didn't watch the race. |

I find it hilarious to see the people who said bekele would never beat the records. |

NativeSon I don't know as the last I heard he was having good training but I will see if I can find out why he DNF. As far as the prediction concerning Kenenisa's 1500m debut in Stockholm. I'm gonna wait and see how he performs against Augustine Choge, Bernard Lagat, and Issac Songok next week. He says 3:32-3:33 but you know he wants to run it faster than Haile 3:31-maybe not this meet- alot will depend on who (1 or 2) rabbits for that 1500m and his competition? |

I really, really appreciate the compliments; however, I'm very religious please don't say that. ANYONE care to predict the outcome of the star field 5000m in a few days with Kenenisa Bekele, Augustine Choge, Iaasc Songok, Bernard Lagat, Craig Mottram...? |
