gonna be an epic race
I am amped for this as well. I loved watching Bekele when he ran at Pre. He soloed a 26:25 and standing on the rail watching him was amazing.
You're not supposed to stand on the rail. That probably distracted him and may have cost him a WR
HECK YEAH IT’S HAPPENING!!!!!
A fitting end to a very fine career. I hope he has a great race.
So happy for him!
Hope he can cook up something amazing one final time
And Rupp 3rd
Never underestimate Bekele.
Renato Canova said he was one in 25:50 shape.

Give the MFer a black page baby!
Gotytom? Didn’t she DNF the last marathon?
edit: body of work (WC gold/silver + Berlin champ) seems to be the reason why she was selected… Ethiopia is sponsored by Adidas and not her sponsor Nike (they have 4 Adidas folks and all from the same team)
Yes this literally would be my dream. Munayo for bronze? I sort of think Lemma must get a medal
🎵🎼Bekele Bekele Bekele!🎤🎸
The Bekele faithful have been rewarded. We forgive the haters. There were a couple Dark Years there in 2022 and 2023 for sure.
I'm sure Lance Armstrong had some crazy workouts too.
Fellow LetsRunners: pay no attention to the Negative Nancy. He cannot spoil this joyous occasion. Hooray for the great Kenenisa Bekele!!
That article seems to have been taken down. Is there any other confirmation?
