Amazing feat by Lagat, especially after dropping out of his 10,000k race.

Great video clip of the final lap in that link.

Lagat is the greatest Cougar, although, for me, I'm torn between him and Rono.

Lagat is awesome but Rono held 4 world records set in less than 90 days. That's simply ridiculous!

So happy for Lagat to get to another Olympics. What a wonderful race. Hopefully Jeshua Anderson can join him.
