Poster: another way to look at it
Subject: RE: SAMMY'S PERFORMANCE - MORE IMPRESSIVE THAN BEIJING?
Body:

Sammy's win today was:

a) One of the greatest marathon races of all time

b) A disaster for Sammy's chances to ever get the WR

c) Both of the above


I would say c) IF all those stories about him getting so out of shape/unmotivated earlier this year are true. What must Sammy be thinking over the next few weeks - "Hey, I can goof off, even start a beer belly, but still nobody can beat me if I just train for a few months."

Now, will he bother to train and take care of his body consistently for 3 - 4 years - which is what it would take for him to really put forth his best?

Time will tell. But I have my doubts.

A supreme talent. And a supreme marathon racer. If he turns out to be a supreme marathon trainer we will see some truly amazing things over the next four years.
