Jun 25, 2009 - the reason kara didnt win was because with 3k left there was about 20 women all together. she went striaght to the lead and droped all but 3.

Jun 27, 2009 - kara also prolly has an extra 10-15 pounds of muscle to carry because she is rather built, so I imagine running 26.2 miles with an extra ten pounds would be difficult

Jul 26, 2009 - hot diggity!! I can't wait to run one of these!

deansmithisgreat Says:

Aug 12, 2009 - not only is she fast she is pretty too

toby099 Says:

Aug 20, 2009 - why doesnt she just lose it then, i dont think weight is any excuse at this level.

electrospecter99 Says:

Aug 20, 2009 - its dangerous at that level to just cut weight, because she has so little fat, she'd be cutting muscle, and why the hell would you want to do that? she cut out any bulk in her training I'm sure.

kRAZYCanuck22 Says:

Aug 21, 2009 - yeah she needs to loose that quickly. I think she is doing way to much weight training.

electrospecter99 Says:

Aug 21, 2009 - thats a very good point.. but I hope she stops marathoning and returns to the track...

Oct 18, 2009 - A big 'thank you' to all the runners. Deriba Merga is a wonderful runner who doesn't fear setting a fierce pace. At times (Berlin) it blows up inhis face and at other times (Boston '09), it pays dividends. I admire such runners. It was a great women's race. Congratulations Salina Kosgei. You make us proud of our country. Heko Kwako dada!!

Oct 24, 2009 - its always the kenyan's, ethiopians, or africans to win marathons it seems. Is it the way their built? or the fact they have to travel everywhere by foot back on their home land.

TJSBRDB Says:

Oct 27, 2009 - have all 3 of them won a marathon?

herohabesha Says:

mrembo87 Says:

Nov 18, 2009 - kenyans are the best marathon runners in the world.just like our mens did in berlin without samuel wanjiru martin lel and luke kibet.salina won it.dire tune was ok But kenya was the best again.

SawViking Says:

Nov 23, 2009 - its the culture. kenya just has a huge running culture. if you look at some other sports like hockey, its not that americans, canadians and sweeds are better built for hockey, but its more abundant in those countries. but yes, you do need to be light. Not sure if being tall is a factor, negative or positive. i know the kenyans are usually down at 5"7, 5"6, but then again, paula radcliffe is very tall, and she dominates. Plus having a long ring finger means you were exposed to testosterone.

TJSBRDB Says:

Nov 23, 2009 - well thanks Mr. Wikipedia

SawViking Says:

Nov 23, 2009 - no problem. glad you appreciate it. :D

TJSBRDB Says:

Nov 23, 2009 - I do think someone mighta said all that to me once before, but even then i would have forgot. i'll try to remember it this time so thanks again:)
