Geez, Ethiopia is the new Kenya. Looks like the USA still has a ways to go to be competitive at this distance.

And lest us forget the women's 10k champion and her fiercest rival...Ethiopa is not the new Kenya--they've kind of owned this distance.
I don't think there is much money in it other than a shoe sponsor, in the U.S. there aren't many people getting up and worrying about their 10K times, but they might play basketball in a pickup game, have their kids play in a camp, or go to a game. Until the interest grows more like soccer, you won't see us winning these events thats why I like Jeremy Warnier, but yet he isn't getting much attention either.
