BEN ROSARIO: WHAT ARE WE AFRAID OF? Recall that when Ethiopia's Haile Gebrselassie made his marathon debut in London 2002 the anticipated match up was against his great Kenyan Olympic track rival Paul Tergat. The Daily Mail story also underscores the point made by Ben Rosario in a recent submission about the need to make such appearance fees public to hype the sport as being truly professional. The Great Ethiopian Run, sponsored by the Commercial Bank of Ethiopia, is Africa's biggest road race with over 30,000 runners expected this year. Tom Connelly, assistant to the New York Times sports editor who assisted Jeré Longman with the story on Haile Gebrselassie told LetsRun.com on Thursday: The New York Times stands by its story. Besides pocketing a good cash award, they will also be entered in the Great Ethiopian Run organised by legendary Ethiopian runner Haile Gebreselassie. The little man from ethiopia who always could. Athletics legend Haile Gebrselassie said returning to Birmingham would be 'something special' having achieved so much in the city during his career.
