*Insert individual who ran in the Kenyan Olympic Trials here*

This happens every year at NCAAs. Somebody dominates the other college kids, and a bunch of dummies decide he must be the best runner in the world.

He was really running very easily at 28:00 min pace, however there must be 30 guys who can do that and come home in 51

Who is Cam Levins? Is he that guy who played in "Never Back Down"?

Now that funny!!!

Levins did run a nice race, but he sucked off Sambu, Puskedra and Derrick nearly the whole race. I feel for Derrick and Puskedra because these are American kids who lay it on the line every race, yet lost out to a couple foreigners at their own National Championships.

Actually Levins and Sambu are in the Collegiate system, so it is their national championships too.

So the guy with 26 second 200m closing speed should be pushing the pace when he also has the 5000m to run in a few days? Sure hope you're a troll, otherwise we are all stupider for reading your initial post.

Cameron is really good, but to know if he can be a contender in the World Stage, get him in a sub 27 paced race and see where he finishes.

He is a very good runner, but needs some more time to develop as a pro, run faster PRs, and then contend at the world stage.

If you can wait two more months you'll get your wish.

Because championship races are routinely run at sub 27 pace...

Funny. There was a guy who did the same thing a few years ago at the NCCA D1 XC champs. Sucked off of 2nd the whole way and then blew by him in the finishing straight. I remember many on here hailing him as an astute tactician at the time. He was American; the guy he sucked off of was Kenyan. So which is it? Does sitting in second the whole way and then blowing by at the end make you smart or a leach? Tell me it doesn't depend on which country you come from.

Rupp PR is like what 2 to 2.30 minutes faster then Levins i mean Levins is good in the 5K and 10 K but Rupp is way way better in both of them.:) Also i would love to see Levins run a 3.35? -3.45? 1,500 LIKE RUPP CAN
