Kenenisa Bekele won the 10,000 meter World Championship race in Helsinki, Finland. He surged through the last 200 meters to edge out teammate Sileshi Sihine by just over a half of a second, 27:08.33 to 27:08.87. Moses Mosop ran a personal best time of 27:08.96 to get third place less than a tenth of a second behind the two. USA’s Abdihakem Abdirahman placed 13th in 27:52.01.
I would have loved to have seen that race on the babble box. Does anybody know of a site where I could download a video of it? I have not been able to find one yet, and I won’t have cable TV until after the world championships are over (unfortunately).
