European Athletics Championship

It is between Farah and Bezabeh. In the semis they have just done enough to qualify, but the final will be decided between the two of them. Their season bests are amazing compared with the other contenders. I think Bezabeh is favorite, as 5km isn't Mo's best distance, he's more of an endurance master.

Yeah Bezabeh has the edge but Farah is on top form at the minute, he's also faster than Bezabeh at 1500m and 3000m so he's deffinately capable of beating him at 5k.

Another good battle should be today in the 800m event. Rimmer is the favorite, but Lewandowski can beat him if he raises his game a little. The Spaniards, Lopez and Marco have defeated Lewandowski in the semifinal carried on by the crowd, but I don't think they're a match for Rimmer.

Yeah I've done the same thing with Rimmer and Lewandowski.

In the semifinal the first lap was very slow that's why Marco and Lopez could match Lewandowski at the end. In full race pace I don't think they have a chance.

Great race in the 5000m yesterday. Bezabeh was a little disappointing, but Mo sealed the deal. Farah is amazing, the guy has no lungs. Lewandowski also showed what he is made of.
I'm sorry the championships end today as I was enjoying those evening races. I made good profit dutching the favorites.
