Sammy Wanjiru says he wasn't able to run in Berlin. I don't know what the problem is/was.
He'll however be able to run later in the year in either london or whatever. This guy is very strong.
I don't know what happened to Kibet. Haile says he expected more from his competitors and with kibet out, he sure was the only likely winner. Congratulations to him.

Haile Gebre won in 2.:06.
Duncan Kibet fell out at the 30k mark. Haile says it was too hot for a WR.
At 36, he is doing well.

We have both quality and quantity.

Tomorrow, Sunday, september 20, 2209 is Berlin Marathon and the two favourites, (Haile G and Duncan Kibet) are threatening a world record. It'll be another great show.
