I have no time, at the moment, to answer to your quote, because we are trying to attack the WR of steeple again in Monaco next Sunday, and after I have to finish the training of Ahmed Hassan Abdullah, Paul Kosgei and John Korir for WHM in New Dehli. But, after 5th of October, I am again in Italy for one month (may be that I go to Kenya and Ethiopia one week, but in any case not after 16th), and I can e-mail to people interested the full season of Shaheen and someother athlete.
About Nicholas, I think that he is able to understand the big mistake that he made this year. I don´t want to speak about 26:00, because may be not possible, or in any case connected with too many favorable situations. But I can suppose that, with a good training, he can be competitive with Bekele, running under the current WR. Beleive me, I had many talents in many years, but never I had one athlete able to improve so quickly like Nicholas. In my group, the two EXTRA-TALENTED are Shaheen and Nicholas, the other are very strong athletes (may be that someone can also beat a World Record in the future), but not so naturally talented.
