 for this young man, the sky is surely the limit.... If you are an eagle don't hang around with chickens; chickens don't fly....

Actually, I'd be very shocked if he stayed competitive for long. Kenyan athletes, though prominent winners, have shown low staying power.

Rudisha making Kenyans proud!
At last the 800 meter records come to Kenya where it should be! Keters (danish) 13 year record has been broken at last.
Im looking forward a rudisha vs kaki khamis race but khamis is smart he is bidding his time rudisha is too fit right now!
In other new Semenya won racing as a woman

Kaki chickened out of a direct confrontation with Rudisha during the just ended senior african games...opting to compete in the 4x400m relay rather than the 800m.
Semenya...thats another story. In sports there is the fame/glory then there is the money...its becoming clear what this is now all about.

Watched the race and was absolutely ecstatic when he crossed the line in 1.41.09.Kipketer's record like Daniel Komens in 3000 looked safe until this fellow came around.I feel he will break the 1.41 barrier.He faces Kaki on friday in Brussels ,should be interesting.

The guy who had the record was a kenyan moved to denmark.Rudisha has just taken back the pride that belongs to kenya thus RUDISHA HAPA KENYA. ukiona choo kwa ndoto usiingie, ni mtego!

It runs in the family.His father was in the 4x400m rely team which won Kenya a silver medal in the 1968 Olympics. Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm.
