The fastest run of the season Abubaker Kaki was the major surprise of the early 2008 season. After winning the World Indoor title earlier in the season Kaki left his rivals way behind during this sensational Grand Prix win in Oslo. His time of 1:42.69 would not only prove to be the fastest one of the season but was also the best mark recorded for almost five years.
