Janeth Jepkosgei gave a superb display of front-running to win Kenya's first women's 800-meter global title at the world championships on Tuesday. The 23-year-old Commonwealth champion ran the quickest time of the year on her way to the final and improved it to one minute 56.04 seconds to stave off Morocco's Hasna Benhassi, who finished second in 1:56.99.

You said, "You can be clever but dumb. Cleverness does not equate to intelligence." Evidently, you need a dictionary. You can take pride from social work, charity work, athletic ability, academic achievements, material possessions, etc. I take pride from my closeness to my family, relatives, and friends; my intelligence; and my material possessions. I never obtained money through theft, bribery, inheritance, or marriage so why should I be ashamed of the fruits of my brains? You look like Mutola.

sungura2005. What are you, a retard or something? Stop hating our glorious sister, Maria Mutola. We Kenyans and all of Africa love Maria Mutola. She has represented us for so many years. It is you who should get a life... mheshimu dada yako.
