Ryan "has got a big" Hall is my pick.
Ryan "has got a big" Hall is my pick.
Peter Gilmore hands down.
Marcos Geneti will definitely win this...
Christine Kennedy versus Joan Benoit Samuelson in the 55-59 age group.
It's not that Ryan Hall runs from the front or the back; it's that he runs his own pace regardless of the competition. I'll be watching to see if he sticks with that or not.
I predict a heat wave will cause the event to be cancelled this year.
Moses doesn't run in Dubai. He lost two weeks of training after Christmas, nothing bad looking at April, but of course nothing good looking at 25th January, so I decided to cancel. Competitions sometimes can be not very good also when you are in top shape, but never I saw somebody running fast immediately after some problem, and for a top athlete there is no reason to run when he's not fully prepared.
DNF for you pick the reason

Shouldn't be an issue for Mosop, honestly.
Mr Canova, why did Moses miss training? Visting family?

Especially considering that the main point of running a course like Dubai is recording a fast time, CR or WR, where you get absurd money.

Coach, who are you picking to win Boston?
How is Ryan Hall's training progressing since you have worked with him? Though Ryan hasn't been with you very long, could we expect something big from him?
Wish there were more Americans. It seems like a lot of contracts were not renewed. Boston would be a great place to gain some visibility.
Typically the BAA will also bring in another tier of decent U.S. runners (i.e. Hansons, etc). The group of runners in the Hancock group apears to include more Americans than they have sponsored in the past.
