Bekele Making Comeback at Worlds
He will be running the 10,000. He has not raced since Jan 2010 since he's gotten hurt. He's never lost a 10,000 so it'll be real interesting to see how he does after such a layoff. I have to think he wouldn't be running this if he didn't believe he could win. I wonder what Mo Farrah is thinking now.

And I cannot imagine that he isn't trained and ready. Should be a good one!

Farah and Tadesse are going to beat him I predict. Farah is on fire and Bekele is not race sharp. Plus, Tadesse just matched his PR in the 5k running 13:00 flat. Considering his strength is his endurance (he's the half-marathon WR holder with a ridiculous 58:2X I think) and the only reason Bekele beat him two years ago was on his final 400m kick I don't see that happening this year. But like most 10ks it probably won't be decided until the final 2 laps.
Bekele has a chance to be the first ever track athlete with 5 golds in one event. Should be fuuun to watch.
Rupp is going to be in the mix too. Hopefully he's top 5 at least.

I think he may struggle with the heat and humidity there. Next year in London the conditions will be more to his liking.
