Australia's Craig Mottram Left In African Wake
The Southern Hemisphere's version of Dathan Ritzenhein (although we'll admit he's accomplished more than Ritz at this point went into World XC predicting medals and came home as the second non-African in 22nd. Sounds great until you realize he was more than 2 minutes off the lead.
Wejo: Jesus Christ, Southern Hemisphere's version of Ritz?
That's pretty f***ed up
Ritz who? I have a sub 13 5k, show some respect! Don't you read the news? I beat Paul Tergat in a 10k twice!
exactly
Mottram is the 2nd fastest non-African over 5k EVER. Ritz was the 2nd fastest non-African over 5k on his team. Not even close.
If you take away Dirty Dieter's 5km PR, then yes Mottram is the fastest.
self consumed.
you could most of us are self consumed.. however you would be more accurate if you said most of the U.S. is self consumed.
they have no clue was goes on beyond their border. this is just a prime example.
likewise, while webb was rising to fame in hs brannen was running 1:46 800's and sub 4 miles. they had no clue until mid sept who he was.
Haha, and like anything that happens outside of the US really matters...
I've heard Mottram swims a lot. Is it true? And if so, how much and what type of workouts?
Thats exactly it. It doesn't matter to you and that is why your country is a joke to the rest of the world. Please don’t stop....your ignorance is humorous for the rest of us. I love united statesians, at least we can laugh at them at thier expense.
(they are not 'americans'-continental americans include canadians and those guys are more awake than yourselves)

I would like to hear you use the term United Statesians in real life. Also, can I suggest calming down.
How tall is Mottram? He looked tall compared to the rest of the guys in the race at Carlsbad but it is hard to tell sometimes because some of those guys are tiny.
"It was a hard race, especially the big guy," Gebrselassie said afterwards. "Wow, he was fantastic."
