For today, he is done. This is a guy who ra 2:05 flat in his debut.
I think he needs more time to buildup for his marathons. You can't change coaches, train from chicago to now and expect to run 2:03. Now he's going to do London in April??
Absolutely agree. I started a thread when he was announced for Dubai saying exactly this. He ran Chicago in October, just 3 months ago, and was far below his expectations. Doing another before London was pure stupidity. He's cashing in, and now if he doesn't run well in London - significantly more likely after beating himself up for a DNF here - he's never going to get the same type of payday again. What a disappointment. This guy could've had the WR if he wasn't so stupid in his approach.
