    You can pick any three men/women over any set distance. Who have you got, and who wins?

    I am going with Komen, Hicham and Bekele over 4 Ks. All at their peak.

    I will go with Hicham to win.

    Seb Coe V Wilson Kipketer V David Rudisha over 800m.

    Seb to take it by the narrowist of margins.

    Bolt V Michael Johnson V somebody else as it doesn't really matter who, over 200m

    I'd like to see Sonia, Szabo and Ribeiro (from the golden generation of European distance running) race against Defar and Dibaba in a championship race (no pacemakers) over 5000m.

    Grete Waitz, and Ingrid Kristianson against Paula Radcliffe over the marathon in a non paced race. Remember their times were from the 80s. Who knows how fast the 2 of them would go if they were around now.

    Jan Zelezny V Andreas Thorkildsen V Steve Backley

    Carolina Kluft V Jessica Ennis :) Throw in Jackie Joyner Kersee

    And maybe Marita Koch V Flojo V Jarmila Kratchkolova to find out who the greatest juicer of the lot is!

    To me this is the pick of the bunch. May just go with Rudisha. He seems to still be developing. They guy is a monster. Coe I think was probably 1:41.20 at best with good pacers.

    Coughlan/Coe/Cram over 1 mile indoors. Wow!

    Oh, Noah Nygeny/Rudisha and Coe over 1000 metres. Coin toss.
