Congratulations to Kenenisa Bekele wins 10,000m and Sileshi Sihine claimed the Silver!!!


Congrats to my fellow Ethiopians Kenenisa Bekele who won his second consecutive Olympic title in Olympic record time last night, breaking his own record (27 minutes 01.17 seconds) from Athens four years ago and Sileshi Sihine who claimed the Silver.....Ethiopia 1 and 2!

The video below pays homage to all the great Ethiopian athletes from the past and present…..I love this video and the song makes my heart swell of pride….Enjoy!

I love this video! It is an amazing feeling to see Kenenisa looking for Halle over and over again instead of running for him self. This should a lesson we take as Ethiopians, helping each other out and being there for others when they are tired and down.
