maybe the bib numbers aren't small and it's just an illusion because maybe the ladies are so big that it makes the numbers look small

It's the shoes what did it.

Isn't it kind of the opposite?

His people are being slaughtered? Generally, in life, oppressed minorities are allowed to protest. Majorities not so much.

"allowed" - thought this was a democracy? Why don't we start getting Democracy right, here at home, before we go shoving it down other people's throats?

They just called him "lelisa desisa"- if you're going to mention a guy protesting his government at least get the name right!

When people talk about broadcast more events, I never understand why. This broadcast proves there is very little to actually watch in a tv broadcast of a distance race. Generally there is just one break.

You could learn more from just reading a messageboard with someone on the lead truck giving you splits every mile.

winning time and clock not shown

Um yeah.. but you might actually want to see the race..

Isn't it some kind of a reverse discrimination.
