Bedan Karoki is a beast! I've been following him ever since he got 5th at 2012 Olympic 10k final and he's been very consistent
Broke 60 in the HM in March, then 26:52 in May and PRE, this was nothing to him

His real breakthrough races came in 2011

Payton Jordan 10000m (Palo Alto) - Out of Japan, he is running a time trial along with many other Athletes (primarily Americans as well as a threat to the at the time British Record) and he felt that the race was going to slow, especially if the British Record needed to go down. He starts to accelerate quite a bit to help the field, but no one goes with him. He then proceeds to drop the field instead.

Kenyan Trials 10000m (Nairobi) - Apparently off of similar pacing, he tried a similar tactic to drop his competition before somehow recording a DNF (I believe he collapsed before the finish after getting caught).

sighs, thought Shalane would end America's Winless status at the Beach To Beacon run...

Yeah, but it has been a long time (1998 & 2000, when Libbie Hickman finished 2nd to Catherine Ndereba each of those years) since a USA woman was second, so SF did do that, and in a very fast time (in the context of this event).

Credit also to Steel for her win -- she was 2nd here last year.

No American had previously run sub-28:30 (Abdi 28:32, KK 28:39, Moran 28:43 were previous American bests). KK ran 27:48 to win in 1999 while still running for Morocco.
Karoki's winning time makes him number two performer behind Gilbert Okari, who has course record at 27:27.

He never ran 27:48 and didn't run this race in 1999. Try again.

re: Retardalert..

Great handle for you. Both disrespectful and appropriate. YOU were too lazy to check.

Get out of the sport.
