The reason why Rupp and Farah killed it last year was because of picking there races well and avoiding racing too many races. The Kenyans have noticed this and that is why they are racing less towards this coming Championship. Edwin Soi will be hard to deal with in the 5K, Kiplagat and kiprop will not repeat the same mistakes they made at the Olympics. Galen knows what he is doing, whoever has a little bit of energy at the end will be on top at this World's.
There is a lot more time between the 2013 trials and championships than the 2012 scenario. Rupp is confirmed in the London Mile alongside Leo (and Centro if healthy wouldn't surprise me)
London is almost 2 weeks out of the 10000 at worlds, which is run on Day 1 this time. Monaco is about a week earlier than London, but the way things are looking it could be very doubtful that Rupp and Farah will race it (Lagat is aiming for a fast time there)
Farah also ran half of the London Marathon in April. And he had a 10k in there somewhere in London also, can't remember the date so has done a bit more racing than Rupp but I do see your point here.

Just like Dr. Brown?
