Question:
I must admit I haven’t been following the Olympics, but it seems news sites on the web are getting crazy over El Guerrouj; what’s the big deal? El Guerrouj seems to have captured minds and hearts all over the web. Yes I know he won two olympic gold medals, but that [...]

Question:
The first part that struck me was the report that Jan Ullrich(?), Armstrong’s arch-rival in this event, slowed and waited for Armstrong to catch up after his fall.
