Ouch! That never should have happened, but sometimes a bad stat (or two)
gets by when people are working 15-hour(or more) days at a meet such as
this(and Meb was given credit as the record holder during the race). And I
would humbly suggest that the combined knowledge and experience of the
"stats" people who are working on the Worlds is of the highest order.
