    It took them until the finish to figure out it was Rudisha and not Kaki.

    What race were you watching?.....


    I guess the rest of us had a different NBC feed


    Here's the race
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=USrb0Ki4sZw&feature=youtube_gdata_player

    It seems x2 is kinda right. At 3:10 in the video, the announcer says (loosely quoted)..."Abukaker Kaki is showing us why he is the favorite for London". That was with 200 meters to go. Anyway, great race by Rudisha.

    This effort isn't as mighty as most of you think. You have to consider the Mondo track, the way this man gets a rabbit in every race, and the unfair advantage his long legs give him over someone like Sebastian Coe. Now, correcting for Rudisha's unfair long legs (which should be illegal) and factoring in the Mondo surface, and the exceptionally large rabbit who was able to block more wind then any I've ever seen, Rudisha's time is only worth 1:44.6 if he didn't have a 35" inseam.

    Don't anyone even answer this one.

    My vote for the stupidest quote on Lets Run for 2012.

    Agreed.

    The obtuseness of some folks on these boards absolutely staggers the imagination.

    WTF is wrong with your brain? the last 2 times Rudisha broke the record, it's been by less than .1 of a second and you're expecting him to take over a full second off the record? You're out of your damn mind.

    This goes to everyone who thinks Rudisha will ever break 1:40.

    Oscar Pistorius has a 5 inch inseam. That makes him the greatest ever.
