Men's 1,500 Preview: Kenyans Asbel Kiprop And Silas Kiplagat Look To Make Up For Last Year As Americans Leo Manzano And Matt Centrowitz Look For Their Second Medals

The men's 1,500 at the 2012 Olympics turned conventional wisdom on its head. Three Kenyans, defending champion Asbel Kiprop, Silas Kiplagat and Nixon Chepseba, went into London in fine form, with the three fastest times on the year, and none of them finished in the top half of the race. Meanwhile, American Leo Manzano, who was dead last in his last Diamond League race prior to the Olympics, left London with a silver medal wrapped around his neck - America's first medal in the event at the Olympics in 44 years.

Centro Sr Has No Hard Feelings Over Olympic Boycott

“I have a great life. Being involved in track, it’s Disneyland compared to Wall Street or something else. There are a million stories I can tell you about track. I think if you talk to my children they will tell you they love track, too, love being around track people and they love running. And really, what’s better than that?”
