My cousin and I watched Quenton running his record smashing 3000m totally unaware of who he was. As the laps ticked by, I commented "look at this little guy moving up through the pack". As the race proceeded he kept picking off runners and then "wow he's in 3rd.! This kid is amazing!". Never dreaming of what was coming. The long devastating kick that cut down the also record breaking front runner. Leg tempo was like a 100m man.

I wish this race were on YouTube. It would be a wonderful teacher of peace knowledge and discipline. Kudos to Quenton.
