Paul Chelimo finished 8th. Looks like the rumors in the other thread about him were true.
Koech's 22:09 is equal ninth fastest 8Km All-Time.
I heard a rumor that Alan Webb showed up and ran 21:58 as a bandit
There are like 2 8k road races in the world. It's a bunk record. Koech split sub 22:00 en route last year at Crescent City Classic (point to point; 8k not record legal, 10k record legal). Actually a handful of guys were under 22:10 last year at the 8k split.That said, I like that Koech went out in 4:09 - guy has big plans this summer! Must be nice to settle into a pace after going out in 4:09. Also like separating elite from people's race. Makes more champs!
