What place was Bekele in when he dropped? And what would his finishing time have been had he been able to just jog in the last mile?

Bekele Dnf'd again. He's getting pretty good at that these days.
So we got the truly sad and unnecessary sight of him reluctantly strolling along the pavement. He didn't have make him do that.
Of course he did. Quitting is a habit that is the most easily picked up.
Not quitting on a bad day is the defining moment for a champion.
Maybe he is too far past it.

Yeah, didn’t get to watch. What would he have finished at?

Finishing for the sake of finishing is for hobbyjoggers.

As can that muppet Banana Bread ?
Bekele got squished.
Awesome that the marathon is already up on YouTube.
Just started watching it and I'm wondering if Bekele has access to the Nike Vaporfly and why he wouldn't wear them. Looks like other front-runners are wearing red shoes. If it's 1% or 4% faster..... well, just wondering.

I guess you think your funny calling me a muppet. You sir, are a douche. Bekele is a million times the man you will ever be, evan for the amount of that race he ran alone. He won't retire and why would I retire? Do you think I'm going to tell Trader Joe's I don't need there money anymore or something? I won't leave letsrun for sure. I will rise above people like you. I'm here to make friends and your opinion of me or Bekele has no effect on me.

You're a guy who is extremely desperate for attention, a sure sign of insecurity. Stay, go, whatever, you're still a fat old turd pile.

Yea great insult. Where did you come up with that one? Very witty? I'm been sarcastic btw. This thread is about Bekele and Bekele is my favorite runner so it is natural for me to talk about him. It isn't looking for attention. I just want people to agree with me.
Everyone just thrives on hate here. Banana bread I hope Bekele wins next time.
Just watched on YouTube some running of Bekele, Mo, Elliud ,Galen , Ritz and more. The guy was analyzing and giving a score to each athlete. Bekele got 99. Rupp got 94. If anyone has some time today check it out.

Everyone? I have no clue who you are or who he is, assuming you are both the genders that you claim to be.
Banana guy is an insecure guy who wants attention, that is true. Some would call it being obnoxious. He wants to be right so badly that he'll say anything, even if a Hail Mary is his best bet. He told everyone, you'll see or something along those lines (I don't live here and I'm not searching anything for anybody). You compliment him, he compliments you, etc...
Everyone knows Bekele is a very capable runner, he ran 2:03 2.5 years ago, we can all read and we know what he's done on the track. Banana guy wants to say "see, I told you" as if he's got some amazing insight that no one else has.
He'll continue to be called out on here as he loves to continue telling people about some obvious prediction he made and he thinks it's not universal, just him who thought it.
I think you both should post your email addresses and exchange numbers since he wants to meet runners on here, and well, you both allegedly run.
How's that?

"I just want people to agree with me". There ya go, that speaks volumes, he desperately needs the approval of others to "agree" with whatever he says, as if it's a new invention. LOL!!!!!!

Wait, did I just post that?
Just let Banana Bread like his running idol. No harm is done. Right?
Hard pass on the exchanging of emails ect. I’m happily married.
The sport of running would not survive without the fans. We need more super fans not less. Ask my brother he is obsessed with Broncos and the Ducks. It’s a good thing.
Why do you and Ron dickie post under unregistered names when having a shot. Stand up and be identified for your opinions of others
RIP: D3 All-American Frank Csorba - who ran 13:56 in March - dead
RENATO can you talk about the preparation of Emile Cairess 2:06
Running for Bowerman Track Club used to be cool now its embarrassing
Hats off to my dad. He just ran a 1:42 Half Marathon and turns 75 in 2 months!
Great interview with Steve Cram - says Jakob has no chance of WRs this year
Rest in Peace Adrian Lehmann - 2:11 Swiss marathoner. Dies of heart attack.
