Why wouldnt he want to live here? Face it, it's a great place to train and LIVE . Its not all about his running, he only wants the best for his child and wife too...

Bring home the gold? Cop out..

anonymous coward- you are so full of s-h-i-t unless you are a native american you are as "un-American" as Lagat. He has lived and trianed here ever since he started college, and last I checked a world champion can probably make money in any country because he is the best in the world

this guy needs to be running for his home country, which is Kenya. i cant belive you will trade your birthplace for money. as an African i'm very disappointed.

I love him!!! Hes such an awesome and modest and talented Runner!!! Good Luck at the Olympics
