    lol, who wears a hat in the Olympic finals...of the 800!?

    And to the OP, a 600m surge isn't really a kick. It's more of a tactic non-kickers use so they don't have to worry about other good kickers.

    I thought that's what they were saying but then they seemed to get it right towards the end. That must have been one of their first encounters with great Kenyan runners, look how much different that is today.

    Wottle is famous for the golf cap. It's a "trademark" of his.

    Geb vs. Tergat like 8 years ago. Or Geb vs. Komen. Or Shaheen vs. Kemboi. Or to go on high school level, Matusak a few years back or Moore in the 4x4. That was something.

    he ran a 1:56 last 800m and 1:24 final 600m

    that is a kick and how stember always raced.

    i saw this thread and i was like it better be the stember vid

    and fyi dave wottle ran exactly even splits that is not a kick at all

    Stember FTW!

    Fastest SJSer since German since year.

    Matusak's kick a few years ago was pretty awesome too.. don't remember what his last lap was though.

    Yea, the thing about Symmonds/Wheating today (and Wottle back then) is that they just ran evener splits.. not huge positive splits like some of the others did.

    You're right, less impressive kicks in worse competition are generally better, aren't they.
