With Tirunesh Dibaba, two time defending World Champion and reigining Olympic Champion, out of the race, the question is who will take the most advantage of Tirunesh's absence. Meseret Defar will be interested to put her stake down on a new territory, but Meselech Melkamu with her recent second all-time fastest 10000M outing will be looking to step up to the top podium also. The Kenyans led by Linet Masai will be there as well as Elvan Abeylegesse the Olympic silver medalist.
My bet will be on Meseret Defar as she has a score to settle from Beijing last year. A loss of the gold to another country will be a bitter pill for Ethiopians on first day of competition. Any thoughts?

Meseret does not seem strong. I get the feeling she is going past her prime. She is not as invincible anmore. Perhaps it could also be a lack of experience in the 10k that led her to lose in the fashion she did. Meselech Melkamu seems to have improve a lot. Wude Ayalew is a pretty good runner as well. You know what though, Linet Masai looks extremely good. You got to give it to her.
