Not for nothing but both Adola and Wanjiru were crushed by an unknown New Zealander recently. Wanjiru was even overrun by someone named Alex Monroe. Who the hell is Alex Monroe?? And we're supposed to take Adola and Wanjiru seriously??
I think if Adola and Wanjiru were literally cars, there best races would be like them driving a drag with overly sized turbos, not double clutching, and over heating engines with losing oil. There engines are basically literally dead now. They won't be able to better then what they done in the past. It is a classical symptom of literally Kimetto, where he blew his gaskets by getting the world records in the full marathon.
Please stop using the word Literally. You use it every sentence. So irritating.

How so?
Wanjiru ran sub 60's in the Prague half in 15 and 16 and then back to back 2:05's in Amsterdam 16/London 17.
Adola also only ran 1 marathon...

Wanjiru is literally dead, yes.
Kimetto lost interest after becoming rich.
I have no idea as to the meaning of the rest of your post.

Wanjiru ran 1:02 in houston, just like he did last year at the RAK HM, where he came in 12th, 2 months before winning london.

It sucks that he got unlucky with injuries after 2009. Does any one know what particular race made him injured after 2009. Was it after the double gold in 100,000 and 5,000m? He did look like struggling in the 5,000m. I think he should have literally moved to the marathon for the 2012 Olympics. He would have easily won that if he done it. Maybe if he didn't get any injuries he would be very close to sub 2. I know he can still do a 2:02 mid tough.
Struggling? didn't he outkick Lagat on the last lap? remember even with little training he did a 26:43 in 2011 but as far as when he got injured, i'm not sure.
i see he raced the Edinburgh x-country at the start of 2010 (didn't look good) but obviously didn't look injured enough that prevented him from running the next 1.5 years

Ahahahahahah!
You gotta love LRC, where some people claim Rupp is at least a 2:05' guy and Adola a has-been.

? I'm talking about Sammy. Hence I said literally.
Kipchoge wins easy. Though I am interested in seeing how Mo will do in his first marathon after retiring from Track.

No, I loved your post. I meant Banana Bread's.

Rupp? WTF?
Rupp's great on an American scale. But against these dudes? I mean, come on!
I wouldn't pick Rupp for the win based on his previous marathons, but he/we will never know how good he could be unless he gets in a genuinely fast race against top competition. Matching Ryan Hall's 2:06/5th place in London would be a good goal for Rupp.
I also wouldn't pick Farah to win against this field given his previous marathon, but I give him credit for going up against the best in the world in a fast marathon with pacers.
Agreed all around.
Would be good for Rupp to REALLY test himself. I have a lot of respect for Hall for doing exactly that.
"building up to a Facebook Live at 1830 on Thursday 25 January "
Is that confirmed ? Can't see a reference on their FB page

I don't think he can do it anymore honestly. A KB in his prime, yes, definitely. But now, he ain't got the hunger anymore...
He's certainly been inconsistent at the marathon, but he ran 2:03:03 about 16 months ago. He has it in him, and I think the goal of being the only runner to ever simultaneously hold the 5000, 10000, and Marathon WRs is plenty of motivation.
That said, I wouldn't be surprised with a DNF.
