Having not watched the race - although i have read it doesn't matter, that Lagat wins in ANY race scenario, how does Lagat end up 3rd in this mile?

Earlier today I thought an American male had a chance at a medal in every event from 100m - 5000m (except the steeple), now not so sure.

Also, another DNS for Webb

re: Green Reality

Lagat ran a horrible race tactically. He got boxed bad with 150 to go.

Basically dropped back and then swung real wide. A suprise he pulled out a 3rd place

re: cheap

Yeah I was wondering what happened there. Off a slow pace, I would bet that Mottram and Lagat both would thrive. But obviously, with 7 guys within 1.2 sec of each other, it must have been too crowded to move up.

re: cheap

Lagat is now an American miler so he will now get beaten.

re: joe90

Like when Khalid K became an american, all of a sudden he's mortal. Odd isn't it?

re: cheap

How did Mottram run? Up front? or trying to kick from behind?

re: Green Reality

Not that big of a deal. Lagat is allowed a mulligan.

re: Green Reality

I can't imagine running a 3:58.20 mile for a personal best and still finishing 11th and next to last.

re: not impressed.

Remember how "slow" Lagat ran last year? And then he won two WC golds?

Yeah, I think he's fine.
