How much would great runners like Kenenisa Bekele get paid if they lived in America?

Q. Kenenisa Bekele, Haile Gebreselassie and many other Ethiopian and Kenyan Runners are the top runners in the world. They own the record for over 5-10 events and win cross country championships 5 years in a row (I looked it up). What if these elite athletes lwere born here in the USA. Would they be famous? Would many people love to watch the sport of running more? Any answers would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time?


Answer
They would be famous.....but really only to those who care about running or watch running events. They probably be like a average baseball player....if you care about the sport, sure you'd recognize them while out. If not you wouldn't even know they were famous. Don't know if it would draw much more interest in people watching the sport.....it's just not a thing spectators like to watch.

How do i get ready for my 100m run on Sports Day?




steven


My Sports day is on the 15th of June which is next sat. Im the favorite coming into the events. I will be running the 100, 200 and 4x100. My PB's are 100:11.4 200:23.1

I notice even though i warm up, i always run the first race slower and the other races faster.
I practiced 5 100m's and my first 100m time was 11.9 but the rest were 11.4, How can i run my first race faster?

The order of the day will be 1. 100m
2. 200M
3. 4X100.

I need to win all of these races to win the Athlete of The Year title. My reaction speed is also slow. Can anyone help?



Answer
Hello Steven: Hope you're having a great day! Know what else I hope? I hope my answer helps you win that Athlete of The Year title!! I have been a track runner/coach for over 40 year. Mainly in the L.A. area. Let's talk!!
The Spurs & Heat---which team do you think will be trying harder in game 2? I say The Heat. Why? Because they can't afford to go down 2 & 0 to the Spurs, and they know this. They are going to pull out all stops. I'm not saying they are going to win, I'm saying they will be trying right up to the end of the game, because of what they have to lose. The Spurs if they get behind towards the end of the game could get a little complacent--- Well were still tied 1-1. Know what I'm talking about!
For you Steven---mentally you have got to group all three of your races. Remember when the going gets tough the tough get tougher!! Do not look at the 100m dash as your first race and so on. Go with the mindset of All three of these races are mine and a must win(Have confidence) Remember as you stretch and warm-up for the first race that you were warming up--- to win all three races!!! Mentally if you can do this I feel you will be the next--- Athlete Of the Year!!--- Best of Luck
