Galen already has ran the half (road race) once, I believe his time was around 1 hour flat?....he was wearing his mask.

Sadly,

Almost all of America will forget who Galen Rupp is in a few days, if that.

All the papers will have huge articles about Michael Phelps- and a slight mention of Rupp.

Decades ago this would have made him a household name.

Just another sign of the sad sad decline of track and field in America- even as the athletes are as impressive as they have ever been.

Then we need to BLOG OUR FNGERS OFF!

NO... we need to have runners that compete for faster and faster times. What average American fan wants to watch what appears to be jogging? The swimming events just concluded had every competitor going balls to the wall every time.

there are three important thing we should know

1. European circuit totally were not intrested to arrange the long distance and reduce z money reward and most ethiopian and kenyan shift to road race .

2. Ethiopian athetics fed. Should put the two kids on the block to the 10k competition Race before the olympic

3. Injury is rampant in the ethiopian camp.

All in all it is like the 2001 edmonton WC kamati win.

We will see moscow WC

better testing definitely.

they are testing at the Olympics. When the bio passports

are fully implemented, times will be even slower in the future. The Russians will go down...Moroccans too.

hi rednick,

as far as evry body lnows it is arab and american and eurpian who use EPO and evrybody agree rupp and mo use the latest version.

Time will tell

grammar school is waiting.

I turned on the BBC audio and watched the NBC feed since it was high def. Worked quite impeccably.

That is what I did, and for the women's mary too.

I had the privelege to be in the stadium last night - will never forget it.

u know it what i am saying. Fugut!!!

U saw it what ethiopian woman did at marhon with OR.

Their is a proverb in ethiopia FOR LIPROSY ONE FINGER iS PERCIOUS. For europian and american mo and rupp are unique but east africa just simple athletes

Just reading through this thread form the start. Awesome stuff.

Go galen

I got emotional just reading this thread again. Nice to be reminded that not everyone on LRC hates Rupp.
