Guye Adola to run London marathon

Good for him. Taking on a major challenge again. He wasn't afraid to push the machine in Berlin, we'll see if that's a flash in the pan or if he can repeat.

This is so exciting. Really hoping to see the big guns run hard from the gun. Farah doesn't stand a chance of winning but if he can hang with Kipchoge, Bekele and Adola through 30K the British record will fall, and with those three battling it out there's every chance the WR will too.

Anyone have any clue what Kamworor is considering as far as a spring marathon goes? He's obviously a monster talent and very close with Kipchoge. Would love to see him mix it up with that group on a big stage.

Why is he running against old Bekele and failed marathoner Farah? London is for wannabees, not for real marathoners.

For real. Honestly some of the worst trolling I've seen, no effort at all.

For some reason fast debuts always work out one of two ways

1. He blows us all away keeping up with Kipchoge again (Bekele and farah, who are they?) And wins or gets second, possibly faster than the WR

2. He has a major flop running at fastest 2:06 and he falls off the radar soon after.

Was wondering about that as well, anyone know what his plans our after the Valencia HM Worlds ? Might depend on whether he retains his title for the second time in a row...

His major flop is a 3 minute PR for Rupp and leads to him falling off the radar. lol.

Great analysis BTW...only two things will happen: He'll either do well, or he'll do poorly.
