I'd have thought that the narrative of taking back to the track after a considerable absence and the challenge of taking down Mo would have been a great lure for KB.
I understand about the issues in spikes with his achilles etc, but wouldn't it be great if KB could come back, kindle an awesome rivalry and do it in road racing flats!! (Do spikes really bring a tangible difference at 10000m pace, even closing at 53s?)
Kenny B may be worried that losing to Mo (which is a distinct possibility) will ruin his legacy especially among Ethiopians fans.
