Gebrselassie again

[Mid Life Crisis Marathon Man]

In case anyone missed it, Gebrselassie smashed the world half marathon record last Sunday ... yes that's 58:55 on the clock, a record by 21 seconds!

What odds on him breaking the marathon record at FLM? Certainly he seems on track to do it!

Greetings to Tasmania from Aberdeen this morning, MLC Man.

Thanks for the inspiration about Haile. He's a regular combatant against us Running Commentary runners.

Sweder and I got pretty close to him in the Almeria Half last year, even if we didn't quite catch him.

And with Suzie, me and all those JDRF runners chasing him all the way to The Mall in April, I'd say he should have every chance of a good time in London this year...

Obviously relaxed at the lack of RC runners last Sunday.
It means nowt if there's no pressure . . .
