Haile Gebrselassie: 2012 Great Manchester 10K Run (with interviews)

At the age of 39 running legend Gebrselassie could still turn in a sprightly 27.38 road run to beat off such contenders as Patrick Makau ,Tsegaye Kebede and Ayele Abshero. He also talks of his disappointment of not being chosen to represent his beloved Ethiopia in the upcoming London Olympics.
Considering the eventual winner of the marathon,Stephen Kiprotich of Uganda, was left trailing in fourth place here and none of the chosen Ethiopian runners actually managed to finish the race,I'm guessing a few people back home might of also wished for his inclusion?
