1. love u rudisha
2. So amazing
3. Love this man...so humble, he deserved to be the champion of the World and the record holder.
4. What Rudisha said at 3:59 - 4:32 is very true. For instance, more Kenyans have held the world record in the men's 5,000m, 10,000m and the Marathon than our Ethiopian brothers, even though the Ethiopians have dominated kenya in those events at Olympics!
   
   In fact, the Ethiopians have had only two athletes namely, Haile Gebrselassie and Kenenisa Bekele, in the record books in those events.
5. kijana wetu,wow unafanya poa
6. An 800m KING, one of my favorite runners of all time
7. This guy is a hero
8. I'm a 800m runner but that's so amazing and inspiring love it 💗👍👍
9. poor nick Symmonds ...looks pathetic running last at 400 meters. closed well...the US 4th place finisher...completely over looked...all 8 ran the fastest times in 800 meter history....Amos has his head thrown back a la Chariot of the gods Scottish runner...think that tactic forces more air into your system...seems to be a natural reaction by a few lucky runners who use this method. He(Amos) came close to upsetting David Rudisha.
10. song?
11. My best is only 2.39
12. Wow, I vomit after running a 50 second 400, and this guy can do that twice :O That's amazing!
