I'm wondering if Boaz turned pro. In this picture below he is wearing a PUMA uniform given to sponsored runners and is pacing a race (most likely for money).

No, that is Boaz Kisang, as it says across the front of his Puma jersey. You are thinking of Boaz Cheboiywo of EMU... or, er, ah... now I am confused...
Boaz also has a brother... David Kisang.... it's almost impossible to tell them apart. Could be him. Are there results accompanying pics?
That dude in the race does look a lot like Boaz though, it could be him.
it could be just coincidence, but he is also wearing harambees, like the ones Boaz always wears
Check out the above pdf, Boaz Kisang, when he initial got to EMU, then at some point became Cheboiywo. It was Kisang all summer of 2001 while racing before EMU.
I wore a nike uniform once, Am I a pro, let me know I want to collect some money
Tempo 8 or whatever, why are you asking a dumb ass questions. The pictures are dated 2001! Dont you think that if he turned pro he wouldn't be running for NCAA! How dumb can you be. Let me get it, your trying to pull up pics off the net of Boaz to start rumors huh? That is so pathetic, I'm sorry!!!!!!!!!! Get a LIFE!!!!!!!!
The photo is of Boaz Running at the BMC meet. He ran under the name of Boaz Kisang in Europe that year. People say that he had been paid to pace make the races there. In this particular race he ran like a 14:05. It is definately him.
Geez, someone really likes beating a dead horse. This ridiculous topic pops up here every few months.
Yes that is Boaz Kisang Cheboiywo in the pic, en route to a 14:05.2 win in the 5000 "B" race in Solihull. And if you look around the website, you'll find that these BMC meets DO NOT offer prizes of any sort.
IDIOTS. Ask someone who knows!! One of the most popular pacemakers in Europe is none other than Boaz Cheboiywo's brother David Kisang. I have tapes of him pacing a European meet at the same time that Boaz was running here. Yes they look the same for obvious reasons, but they are different people. Boaz Cheboiywo Kisang decides to drop the Kisang to avoid confusion. Give the guy a break.
