Pollution

Gebre does not want to run the Olympic Marathon because of pollution.
Maybe there is also something behind it (I guess running in Berlin again for a new WR and much $).
Anyway the air in many urban areas in China is really a crap and "my" Dongguan is maybe one of the worst, because of the large number of factories and too many trucks.

This morning, 7.45am from my window. Sunrise is about 6.20am, so the "morning mist" is already gone....
The thick layer of smog, mixed with the humidity of the air reduce the visibility to maybe less than 2km!!
