Rudisha Just Misses Record at Paris Diamond League

             Ohhhhhhh So Close!...

David Rudisha just misses breaking his world record at the Paris Diamond League running 1:41.54 which is just off his 2010 record of 1:41.01. Rudisha was rabbited through 400 in 49.3 and finished more than 4 seconds ahead of the next competitor. It's looking like we'll see the first sub-1:41 sometime in 2012!
