Having been a season ticket holder for the last 12 years for the Ducks, the two biggest deterants for the fans are the weather, and the lack of top distance runners competing at home. If it wasn't for the newspaper, Oregon fans would not have known that Steve Fein was a member of the Duck trac

More specifically I believe the other dude is Wilson Boit Kipketer who is the steepler. In a message dated 5/15/2002 4:49:30 PM Eastern Daylight Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: << I was checking the Qatar Grand Prix results and did a double take when I saw the results for the 3000m Steeplech

Although I don't doubt that the Denmark Wilson Kipketer could do 8:05, I have to think that's some sort of typo or error. Surely the person listed below is Wilson BOIT Kipketer, the former world record holder. All you would have to do is type a "D" and "KEN" becomes "DEN." (And they are on cor

It's safe to say this was an error and it was Wilson Boit Kipketer who ran the 8:05. No slouch himself, he was the World Champ and WR setter in '97 and Olympic silver medalists (would have won, IMHO, if Kosgei hadn't bumped him in the final straight). sideshow

Sorry, I might have jumped the gun on this one. I now know that there is also a steepler Wilson Boit Kipketer who took the silver at Sydney. Is this a typo (DEN instead of KEN)? Does he now represent Denmark as well? Or has 800m record holder Wilson Kipketer moving up in distance? Hope someone ca
