The world XC champs in Belgium are a week away, so I thought I'd get a thread started.
It looks like it'll be a good race with Bekele going for another double, and an impressive Kenyan team (not that that is a surprise). And it looks like Radcliffe will do both races as well.
The Canadian team, by the way, will have Nanaimo's local runner Steve Osaduik!  woop woop woop! 
I wish I could watch this race live, but it will probably be a couple weeks before I can see it. |

Who's running for the Kenyans? Bekele should be a handful...

Yeah, I'd say those are pretty good squads!

Kenyan short course team didn't do so well.
And the Canadians did pretty well. Top non-African team 
Bekele won, no surprise there. On the IAAF site they described it as "strolling" to victory.
