K. Ken Nakamura scoured the lists to find out where Chris Solinsky's 10,000m debut sits on
the world performance lists---with the the knowledge we have today, Chris is fourth best debut ever!

I have also provided splits, from watching the Flotrack.org video (which is quite good!) of the race, and actually checking the splits. We hope you enjoy!
