Even if it grows up to set world records, that doesn't mean it's genetics. It just means it is the child of two top elites. It's no more genetic than if they were auto detailers and it grew up to be an auto detailer too.
So why do they pay owners of top horses in stud millions

We know there have been some great couples in athletics history, but is there any baby in the world that possibly could have better genetics than the one that will be born in 2015?

Exactly. That's why you'll often hear that to be an elite distance runner you don't just need hard work and good luck, but you need to choose your parents well. :-)

Yes because it exactly makes no sense. Very few or no elite runners have parents that were elite runners so how exactly did they choose their parents well?

Great decision on their part
This will enable Tirunesh to train for 2016 Rio Olympics. I don't see anyone who can seriously challenge her in the 10,000m, not at this moment. She has said she wanted to try a 10,000m-marathon double.

That went whizzing over your head. Are you the offspring of two little people?
I absolutely agree with your opinion. I had the oportunity to meet her and Genzebe in London 2012. She is'nt only beautiful, but also humble and polite.
All I know is her sister Genzebe is gorgeous. Tirunesh is cute, but her sister, dayum.

Dibaba's husband is Sileshi Sihine - the 2004 and 2008 Olympic 10,000 silver medalist.
We know there have been some great couples in athletics history, but is there any baby in the world that possibly could have better genetics than the one that will be born in 2015?
Speaking of Sihine, where has he been? We don't see any results from him since 2012. He's only 31. One would think he'd try the marathon.

What part of that went over my head?

Couldn't she have trained for Rio without being pregnant?
Not sure what "this moment" has to do with two years in the future.
Sihine is like most distance runners, a very short prime. He is no longer elite or close to it. It just gives you a greater appreciation of the distance legends and especially of Geb, who dominated for 19 years
I love Tiru, she is probably my favorite athlete in the world. She is such an assassin on the track and it's a stark contrast to her demure sweet personality, She is everything that an athlete should aspire to be.
