Can Haile Gebrselassie Set Another World Record In Dubai?

Can Haile Gebrselassie Set Another World Record In Dubai? "I'll Tell You Two Days Before," He Assures Us The Ethiopian legend set the current world marathon record of 2:04:26 in Berlin in September, and his manager Jos Hermens has declared that Gebrselassie can go under 2:04 at the Standard Chartered Dubai Marathon on January 18. But Gebrselassie himself observes that in Berlin, "everything was perfect, the weather, the course, the pacemaking. Sure it's possible to go under 2:04, but everything has to be perfect again." His pacemaking could be perfect, coming from former World Half Marathon champ Fabiano Joseph of Tanzania and 2002 Boston and New York City Marathon winner Rodgers Rop - if Rop can get out of strifetorn Kenya. Haile Gebrselassie is now a businessman thriving in real estate and other ventures, and by his own estimate he employs at least 400 people, but a colleague observes "he never stops training hard. And that’s even more amazing when you see all the other things he does in his life."
