I heard a few days ago that Sutume Kebede was in amazing shape and may go for the world record. When I asked her about that yesterday she played it coy.
But someone inside the pacing discussion room right now just texted me that she requested a 65:30 half. When the meeting concludes, I will confirm it, but here are the paces.
Lead men : 6130 to 6145.
Lead women: 65:30
