Bekele then Sihine, again

[YiftertheShifter1]

Three cheers for Sihine, easily the most unsung hero in distance running history.

[abdi1983]

this guy is the king

[EliteMontix]

excellent quality!

[crimsonmonieful]

I could totally see the grin on bekele's face when they had 300 meters to go before he passed Sihine...priceless

[xcrunner000]

I wonder how Sihine feels about Bekele....

[Tsedal1000]

Ethiopians are the fastest. If you agree thumbs up.

[burnit01]

Respect to Kenyans from CANADA....

[dircyusuf1977]

i bet sihine is like fuck u bekele haha

[munkypoo91]

watch out for chris solinsky in the 2012 olympics, a He ran a 26:59 as his very first 10k race.

[TomsMVP]

nice 56s for that last quarter

[bijection765]

I'm going to the 2012 olympics for one reason....

To see Bekele in the 10,000m

[GODWORK10]

THIS RUNNER IS AWESOME HE IS

THE NEXT HAILE HE

ALWAYS WIN WIN WIN i HOPE

HIS LIFE COUNTINUES THE WAY HE

IS, A FAST RUNNER IN THE WORLD

AND HE IS ETHIOPIAN

AND ALSO THE SAME FOR EVERY

OTHER ETHIOPIAN RUNNER.

[fishrfine]

Gotta feel bad for Sihine... such a great runner but needs to compete in Bekele's shadow...

At least he's got Dibaba :P

and he still runs way faster than I'd ever run.

[sharafudin2]

Oromos are all ways talented viva Oromia.

[demason13]

im ethopian ethopians r awsome!

[Aschilegn]

Bekele thanks

[AiyeeBruhh]

@Eljayan, he says master, not monster

[bijection765]

Gosh I was scared with 300 to go, Bekele looked out of it!!

[MrBarnabas23]

Ambesa Bekele

[liveinjahlove123]

ethiopia

[hermonnw1]

@liveinjahlove123 fuck off u fuckin cunt

[liveinjahlove123]

ethiopia is the best ...... there lions....... unstopable

[deco9987]

It's so weird seeing Bekele in any kind of discomfort these days... but it looked like he was REALLY in pain around the 250m to go mark

[YiftertheShifter1]

Really? Looks like he was chuckling to me... Sometimes I wonder if he gets so bored with winning all of his competitions that he toys around with his adversaries.

[TWiNKEEMiKE]

Yeah, that's what I thought as well.

[GetUpAndTryAgain]

jeez... i thought sihine had him for a sec...

do you think bekele was just fooling around? trying to put the crowd in suspense? T___T

[8thwonder1221]

what u tlking bout..ethiopia taught eritria how to run

[ghezaet]

Eritreans taught ethiopians running, now they are champions. we are proud of you! lol

[PureEthiopiawit]

Glad u are proud of Ethiopians but how the hell did u teach Us (Ethiopians) how to run.Running is something that comes naturally and in order to excel at it it requires much practice and persistence.Now how did you and your Eritrean ppl teach running?

[ethi0nz]

Teach Zerensay how to run first before you talk about us..lol

[joeyyowee]

Zersenay is a great runner. You know you're good when you beat Bekele. Tadese is my 3rd favorite runner after Bekele and Haile.

[muluken04]

lol funny!

[joeyisownage]

Wow, that's really sad, couldn't we just forgot the rivality we're just the same people. Stop complaining about it. Just look at the video. ( btw i'm half casted my father is an ethiopian)

[roadrunner7000]

im american just let me believe Lagat has one more great race in him lol And who's excited for the Finals in 7 days!?!?!?!?!?!?

[YiftertheShifter1]

It seems for every great athlete, there's been one rival that's been runner up; Examples:

Nurmi and Ritola.

Emil and Mimoun

Gebreselassie and Tergat

Bekele and Sihine

El Guerrouj and Lagat

Morceli and Cacho (maybe?)

(in '72) Viren and Puttemans

[TorstenBM]

Dont forget Seb Coe and Steve Ovett

[YiftertheShifter1]

Coe and Ovett rarely faced each other, other than in the '80 and '84 olympics, the second of which Ovett was ill. Not quite sure where exactly to place these two, because not one of these won every single race, while the other being a runner up.

[YiftertheShifter1]

Sihine has now equalled Paul Tergat's world championship/ olympic games medal record: first a bronze, then an Olympic silver, then two world silvers, then another Olympic silver. He has one other medal (a silver in the '05 5K), so Sihine is the best runner up in the world :D

[mavikings]

Kenyans and Ethiopians are great neighbors with talented runners. we should celebrate this gift and realise that without the boundaries set up by the colonialists we would be from the same place(motherAfrika). much love brothers

[Habesh]

@mavikings yeah that is true BUUUUUUUUUTTTT we where never colonialisted ever we are the only country in africa that never was that u know mate but yeah we ethiopians are proud of it even back to the 60's when the first africa did win the olympic medal u know the ethiopian=)

[mavikings]

@Habesh @Habesh see how many thumbs up i got compared to urs, by the way, the main reason Ethiopia was not comlonized was because the westerners had no shit worth fighting for in your land locked country, as u know the main reason for colonization was raw materials, and if u had the gold,and the accecibility they have in south Africa i bet u would if lucky have been the last country to be de-colonized, no hatret just a challenge for u to do more research past ur history teachings in school.

[TheTokechaw]

@mavikings challenge my ass man, first of all u should know that Ethiopia used to have more than 800K.M sea port till 1993 so the thing u said that we were land locked at that time is entirely not true and why would Italy came to our land with machine gun and poison gun if our land was worthless? u are the one who should read history fool

[mavikings]

@TheTokechaw :u warmed me up man. let me teach you about ur country fool. before 1935, Abyssinia (ethiopia currently) was landlocked. But after the italian invasion, they the italians merged Ethiopia with Eritrea .....reason......port..the very one u r claiming was ethiopian till 1993...so what happend..did the port move away???, NO! it went back to its original country Eritrea. N thats one major reason u guys did not wanna let eritrea go. nyway let me know if u need more lessons "genius".

[TheTokechaw]

@mavikings Whatever man, I ain’t gone fight you over internet..That only makes me gay….once my father told me that Eritrean separation is better off for Ethiopia, they were a beast!!!You are the son of beast!!& about Asseb, u will see what will happen when Melese the devil go down!! till them watch Kenenisa and enjoy!

[mavikings]

@TheTokechaw. first ,there is nothing wrong with being gay...if one decides to have their bottom pricked, it should be their own business. second ,keep ur grandpa out of this.third, i have no problem with runners from anywhere winning or not, its the bullshit from people who r bordering illeterate that bugs me....nyway till u have another point about the port be urself....

[sara50817]

@TheTokechaw

O! God are we still talk about borderls...... your father had wroing ideay . Eritrean and Ethiopia should not separat .cues we have same cultuer, language and colare. this is facte ......lat say 2 brother fight and they go differnte way. so it doesn't mean they are not brother any more cuse they shear mother . this the situation happn b/n Ethiopian and Eritrean ....cool it bro or sister

[Makbelly]

@mavikings

Thats the best thing Ive heard in a long time. I'm Kenyan and i was getting disappointed  with the Kenyans, but then your view has changed my perspective.

[mavikings]

@Makbelly, lets seat back and enjoy our talents, if they can hate on kenyans they can also hate on the tribes these runners are not fron and the families e.t.c, amature mind sets

[1982daniboy]

remember we are brothers and an Africans. gold for Ethiopia and for Africa.

[WORLDBEATER22]

either master or monster

[Eljayan]

"Here comes the monster, the monster once again". The perfect description.

[SawViking]

@Eljayan

i think he said master. but who knows.

[cicirunner]

@Eljayan I think he says Master

[poiujkl771]

@Eljayan he said " here comes the master, the master once again" idk if you are twisting words or just trying to be funny

[w80616]

@Eljayan I'm pretty sure he said "master", not "monster"

[BandWagon1987]

@Eljayan He said "he comes the master, the master once again".

[bassie417777]

f*cking amazing!

[bochtje123]

man bekele is bekele silesh best one but sory this man is not easy

[NAbyssinia9]

god bless ethiopia AMEN AMEN

[danibush39]

i wount sat dat he introduced ethiopia 2 de world ther were others like Haile and Abebe

[ethioaddis01]

kenenisa is a killer man. he killed them all wooow. he is the king of ethiopia...he introduced ethiopia to the world.. we love you kenenisa..keep it up the good work...

[kushlion]

ehem abebe bikila did dummy,

[UglyChannel]

Kenenisa is very professional.

[ragdelgat]

bekele is very quick!!!

[lamrof]

Damn

[a3y1a5p0an]

さすがベケレ切れ味抜群

[mamowolde]

Hey what the hell is that man! Jackie Chan or wat!LMAO

[MichealWeather]

Yeah he is a really good runner, like if it wasn't for bekele he would be a double olympic champion, double world champion, and the worst thing is people outside of ethiopia dont really know him(apart from kenya really) because of bekele. He would be really big if it wasn't for bekele, that's what i think.

[MichealWeather]

Ha ha you'd feel sorry for sihine wouldn't you because bekele always beats him, he came 3th in 03, 2th in 04, 2th in 05 and now 2th their and also 2th in the olympic 08. Poor cunt! Unlucky to be born in this era

[GetUpAndTryAgain]

(I'm not the one who "thumbs downed" u)

in a way i think it would be a bummer to be born a decent runner in this era, because he really is good enough to be one of the greats in distance running. its too bad geb and bekele took all the spots for the long distance legends of the 2000's.

At the same time, it would also be cool to say "yeah. i was close to bekele."

[vincevince801]

wow nice run!

[matthiasprenzlau]

he ran a 12,5s of the last 100m!!! incredible

[mrembo87]

befor osaka world champions, it was very funny for me to hear one ethiopia saying that long distance running has been dominaten by ethiopia over the past years and it will be no different in osaka japan.Lo! which ethiopia?KENYA went to osaka to improve why they are best,performing ethiopia in every event exept 10000m.how wonderfull they were!!

[ethi0nz]

Shit! I wish Sileshi would win at least one gold.lol But we Ethiopians are our own competition good job to both runners. Gobbez yagery lijoch.

[YONNICUTE]

that's da probelem in ethiopia raicsm...............that's y our people can't get along..............MOST OUR RUNNERS R OROMO SOOOOO....WE SHLD GIVE 'EM CREATED NOT TALKIN'  SHIT ABOUT DER BACKGROUND......AIT!!!!!...PEA­CE

[pulypul]

bekele is a wonder -he is simply

the best

[adwaye]

Poor Slushi, Always the bridesmaid and never the bride.

[symphonyway]

There is no disgrace in coming second in an Olympic, or being second to Keninsa...quit your negativity and enjoy the success, and most of all get off Sileshi's case who has done his best and been successful and consistent for a long time.

[rutesolo]

that's what i thought too, isn't that weird? always a back-up

[adwaye]

Stick to running and not all this OLF, shabia politial nonsence. cant you people suspend politics for once and watch a good race.

[henmana]

Thank you man...its about time somebody let people know that they should keep their comments to the actual video(running) not politics.

[jhnb91]

[nimi4jennah2001]

no matter if he is oromo, tigray, amhara, hareri, afar, or any Ethiopian.... at the end of the day the is still ETHIOPIAN and thats what makes us all happy.

[makavely000]

keneni kenna, ka oromo

[danielmakgon]

Why in the world you care about his ethncity, you moron, just treat him as an Ethiopian. Do you know where Oromos are you damn ass? They are in Ethiopia.

[oromo1991]

is it bad if he supported bekele because he is oromo? is it bad

[niall29]

Incredible.

[wallj5]

vweibel06: haha i highly doubt that bekele is smiling.. maybe he was grimacing?

[Barniisrunning]

I saw this live on tv and ih thought bekele was beat.. and then he came and ran the last 200 metres in 27 seconds or so.. Impressive!!

[destakeremela1]

who is tadesse haha sorry and wedisewra hahaha hahaha hahaha

[haben03]

tadese is the same man who striped bekele for his world title at the world xc championships yea im sure u remember that dont u destakerebitch

[Denvr07]

what happened in edinburgh a year later? that's right, bekele beat everyone and tadese ran his usual 4th.

they're both damn good athletes man

[theevilofusa]

wODISAWRA ,Tadesse got 9th place on this run,sorry.He can join our 5,000 women olyompic,because he can't beat Tirunesh/tiruye/ for 10,000 m don't cry here we excuse,over all this is sport,not poletics.

[wedisewra]

The Eritreans just started running, on the other hand Ethiopians were runing for 60yrs. As far as I understand Taddese is the best distance runer. He is going to dominate cross country the next 2-3 yrs.

[yeaddiskonjo]

no disrespect, but I HIGHLY HIGHLY doubt it. :)

[muluken04]

wtf u hav no idea wat u talkin bout! da eritreans jst start runnin 2day! wat!u lost ur mind!!! do u remember et n eri used to same country! we both started running 60 yrs ago!

[truth2btold66]

Stupid! the Eritreans were running with Ethiopians when they were Ethiopians. Miruts Yifter was drafted from Asmara, regardless of his background.

[ethi0nz]

Yeah he practiced in Asmera but he is from Adigirat in Tigrai,Ethiopia.

[kuchu]

What does that mean? You make it sound like it was illegal to run in Eritrea until recently.

[mbembani]

This bekele should be seriousily tested for drugs

Remember marion jones the very darling of everyone ? and now o confirmed drug user!

God knows how long we have to wait to have more confessions

[broadcastf11]

It's a funny comment from you. Drugs are taken to boost the energy and its effective for the sprinters not for the long runners. If Bekele use drugs he should stop the race on the last round and take it. They don't even have money to buy spikes . respect to these achieves.

[vweibel06]

you can see bekele smile at about 41 seconds because he knows there is no way sihine will beat him.

[deeboyt5]

Bekele you are my hero man. I am very proud of you aka Mr.Master . ....oh sorry where is that Tadesse is he still running ...

[marwanomar]

now that is what i call ROCKET !!

[redsan305]

one

[wallasky]

It looks like Tadesse got fourth in this race.

[googlelove]

come on guys Zeresenai Tadesse is hard working runner give some respect

well done Bekele and Sihine,

[lamrof]

I like guys like Sihin, Tergat, Verin who always make it exciting, being worthy challengers. If I was Sihin I will go for longer distances. Sihin does not have the leg strength and the form to beat bekele at the end.

[sizzlexc]

I don't know, Bekele is a WR holder but if it werent for Bekele, Sihine would be untouchable at 10k

[theevilofusa]

Zeresenai Tadesse of Eritrea will run for 10,000 women olympic in china,the bad news is,Tirunesh Dibaba and Meseret Defar will run with him,what a sad,,,if one Kenyan women beat him beside that,he may be finish 4th.

[lamrof]

you are funny bro.

[berrigno]

well ethiopians and running is a long story you allways run away especially the amhara you run away from battle field that is your speciality . well for zeresennai we will see who will run with women and who's going to win from men .

[kaleab]

PEACE!

[theevilofusa]

Where is the poor guy Zeresenai Tadesse?.

Is still running,i know he finished 9th.Get some hambasha or go to sawa,u are not for olympic.

[wallasky]

Good race!

[wrmmw]

Lol you can see bekele smile at sihine at the 45second.

Lol he aint gonna let no one beat him.

still sihine is a great runner in all respects

[lamrof]

He was grimacing. Bekele was tired.

[Tesema44]

come on kenenisa, let sileshi win at least one gold. don't be selfish.

i still love you!

you are the greastest!!

[hannaskr]

you will will gwt that gold shini someday

[gnagniburukani]

Bravo Kennenissa!

Je pense qu'il tire sa force de l'intérier: de couer directement pour sa Ethiopie!

I think he is getting his poweer from his interior soul and heart: for his mother Ethiopia

Lennatu ager sil kellibu inna keiwty now yemiagenew POWER- KENNISSA IWEDIHALLEU- HAGERENE BETIRU DIMTS ASTERAH

[supervic29]

[Djshurro]

Tadesse is the new world champ, he won the world cross tour 2007;) u guys can hate on him but that aint going to change shit. bekele might have won before but he ain't going to win anymore aginst tadesse.
