	Khalid Skah - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Khalid Skah (born January 29, 1967) is a Moroccan athlete, winner of 10 000 m at the 1992 Summer Olympics.
		Born in Midelt, Morocco, Khalid Skah established himself first as a good cross country runner by winning the IAAF World Cross Country Championships in 1990 and 1991.
		This was a disppointing outcome for Skah as, earlier in the season, he had won the 10000m race in Oslo against a very strong field and had emerged as one of the favourites for the finals in Tokyo.

		He was successful in dragging Tanui clear of his main rival, Morocco's Khalid Skah, and on the final lap he allowed Tanui to sprint clear to take the gold medal.
		However, the Moroccans appealed against the disqualification and Skah was reinstated the next morning due to the fact that the rule under which he was disqualified did not define a penalty.
		Skah was reinstated because the rule wasn't technically a rule at all.

		Skah further states that shorter faster distance workouts combined with extensive usage of interval training is producing better results than what is typically used in Norwegian running, orienteering and cross-country ski training; lots of easy long distance training combined with some interval training.
		Skah told that he had experimented with three daily workouts but it didn’t work for him.
		He felt it was important to train with tough training groups consisting of good runners where the distance runners could do shorter interval with the middle distance runners to take advantage of their speed and the middle distance runners could do longer intervals with the distance runners to take advantage of their endurance.

		In a very controversial 10,000 meters at the Barcelona Olympics in 1992, Khalid and Richard Chelimo of Kenya were engaged in a tight battle for the gold medal when they lapped Skah's fellow-Moroccan Hammou Boutaib.
		Finally, in the last 200 meters, Skah took off and won the race by 6 metres or so with his strong finishing kick in 27:46.70.
		And Skah got his gold medal on the victory stand the next day, to volley after volley of whistles.

		The 27-year-old triple world champion had been the first athlete to raise questions about Boulami when he broke the 3000m steeplechase world record last year in Brussels and had his suspicions confirmed Wednesday when it was revealed he had tested positive for EPO.
		"I'm very disappointed as he has tarnished the reputation of Moroccan athletics that we've had from Khalid Skah (1992 Olympic 10,000 metres champion) to myself," added the triple world recordholder, who omitted to mention 1984 Olympic 5000m champion Said Aouita as he is furious the latter claimed to have coached him.
		Boulami, 30, has denied ever taking banned substances despite traces of EPO being found in a sample he gave the day before he bettered his own world record in the Zurich Golden League meeting on August 16.

		At the South Korea Olympics of 1988 a home boxer decided to stage a sit-in in the ring after a stunning verdict against him.
		Four years later it was our own Richard Chelimo, now deceased, who watched in disbelief as COOB, the organising committee of the Barcelona Olympics first disqualified Khalid Skah's 10,000m gold medal run on his appeal for obstruction, then saw that decision rescinded on counter appeal from the Moroccans.
		In that final Skah was seen chatting to compatriot Brahim Boutayeb who then after seemingly appeared to obstruct Chelimo as the Kenyan attempted to overtake him and challenge Skah who was speeding away in the final straight for the gold medal.

		The former runner said Khalid Skah of Morocco could have been disqualified if the KAAA officials who were in Barcelona protested to the world athletics body, the IAAF.
