There was no Ethiopian stands that gives them water on the road. At one point Gelan showed frustration at absence of support team yet she pushed and won the race.

It is a heart breaking win because at one point Tiki was clearly upset at the absence of Ethiopian water stand. She had to snatch one from a kenyan stand. What a shame for Ethiopia.

If it was "SERG" every Ethiopian and Eritreans would have showed up at every stand you can find the whole ine of 42KM

The difference between men and women of Tigray and Eritrea VS the rest of Ethiopians is Tigray and Eritra men are very talented but our woman are not that brave hard working minded. Where as the Amhara and other ethnic Ethiopian women are very talented and hard working but their counter men are lazy, less talented. The reason is Tigray and Eritrea more to the Arabs culture and the other Ethiopians more close to non Arab African countries. This is my observation, not intended tp offend anyone.


The bottom line is Semira is talented and hard working than Belaynesh and OJ, Shalom, revelation, Ethiopia and the rest of the men.
