-
a 3:03 kilometer?/? have they lost their minds?
-
3:03 second K...thats not good!
-

-

Better too slow than too fast...still, 3:03 is much too slow. 11:5high thuogh 4k
-
2:57 fifth k...I'm gonna want to hear what he has to say about his pacers after.
-
14:54 at 5K that is 20 seconds slower than the 2008 pace (compare here http://www.sportsscientists.com/2008/09/haile-gebrselassie.html)... so science of sports guys were thinking that was too fast, so maybe Haile and co. think the same and trying to take it slow at first...lets hope so
-
now 2:55... wow so much variance...hope they keep it still from now on for a while...

KM Absolute Diff
KM 1 02:58 02:58
KM 2 06:01 03:03
KM 3 09:00 03:00
KM 4 11:58 02:58
KM 5 14:54 02:57
KM 6 17:49 02:55
Doesn't look too bad, if anything this is a good sign (maybe not the 3:03 but overall looks fine). -
as soon as I post, another 3:03 7th K.
-
I hope he has it in him and this is just part of the plan
-
another 3:03... I think the pacers are either Wanjiru's relatives or Dubai holidngs paid them a little extra to save from paying 1M!:-)
-
2:56 8th K...this guys all over the place!

2:56 8th kilometer...what is the plan, to vary the pace as much as possible and still set the wr?
