What is there to say about Meb? Three years after Nike dropped him he has the run of his life. Just incredible. Sure the East African mafia would never had let a younger runner get that far out front, and sure Ryan Hall and the other Americans helped Meb by not pushing the pace. But Meb still ran his heart out in a smart, and gutsy, race. The man is an inspiration to old dudes everywhere. Lets hear it for Meb!
I’ve written about Meb a number of times. You can read some of those posts here, and here.
