The last time we saw Kjeld Nuis in action was last March. His stitches had just been removed from the foot that he had single-handedly kicked, which led to a completely failed World Cup in Hamar. Seven and a half months later, Kjeld appears to be in perfect health again. On Saturday afternoon he became Dutch distance champion for the sixth time in the 1500 meters in an astonishing time of 1.43.49.
