I wonder who is the best 1500-5000 runner on the planet now? Hmmm
Let's see, Jakob left Kejelcha 4 seconds back in the 1500. That equates to about 15 seconds in the 5000. We all know Kejelcha is leaving Jakob 15 seconds behind.
Best they could do is 4 seconds. Jakob ftw

Thanks! When scanning results I assumed that one was a win in rounds (which I don’t consider a win) instead of the actuality of a win in the fastest heat of a multi-heat event, which definitely counts. Respectable time for his fastest win.
Rupp -- 13:01i, 26:44, 1:01:20 (Portland), 2:06:07 (Prague)
Solinsky -- 13:35, 26:59 maybe one of the only guys whose 10,000 win pace is faster than his single fastest 5000 win pace
Lagat -- 3:27, 7:32, 12:59, 27:49
Teg - 3:36, 7:46, 13:20
Kennedy - 7:39, 13:20, 27:38

Let's see Kejelcha run another race before we write him off this season.
Do Lopez!
I was in a 10km on the roads against Ritz in Mobile where he blitzed a 27:25. Crushed Teg that day. Still my road PR. It was a USATF Championship so will look it up. He solo’d it and at the start line he looked like a withered grandma. Must’ve bee around 2003-2004.

Turd in the punch bowl? Why are you so angry? He seemed to easily be able to pull the data on the others so I thought maybe he enjoyed doing it. If it is more of a chore I understand him saying as much but I don’t understand your frumpy ‘tude.

Been trying to answer this for years now.

Winners do get tested more frequently! They NEVER win big/fast races, could this be tactical?
fast enough to run wrote:
Probably not very fast because they always search out the best competition. That is why they are in a very elite group. Seems you were trying to prove something else but the facts speak for themselves.
So, Basically the same as Craig Engels then.
Always searching out for the best competition despite never actually winning against the best competition.
Yeesh. What started off as a weak attempt at marginalizing Ingebrigtsen accomplishments slides even further to being just plain dumb.

....I'd say the pendulum swings equal distance between the knob schlobbing fanbois who declare the Second Coming and those who more prone to say WTF??
If Jakob and Filip just wantet to win races they could just run in the USA.............
Is it two years ago Jakob then 17 took down all the best in the USA. To do that he just had to run 3.39.

A friend asked me this today, not sure if he was trying to be rhetorical or what, but I couldn’t come up with an answer. Nothing under 3:35 or 13:05 comes to mind?
Not saying your doing this but why are so many hating on these guys. People have wanted this for years non-africans that can truly run with the east Africans and we have 2 brothers 3 on a good day that can do it. Now that we have it I am seeing nothing but jealousy and anger about it. I myself am a fan and am excited about the future with these guys in it. Lets see Jakob break 3:26 and 3:43 It is going to happen and Vegas betting odds says it him or his brothers that do it.
No. You probably didn't notice Engels because he was 60 meters behind in 11th place last time out while Jakob ran 6 seconds faster than his PR.

Cool story. Let’s see if they can translate that to remotely approach the medals US has won at 1500m and 5000m the last couple decades.

Ease up bro.
Warholm will be securing a T&F medal and save face for Norway soon enough.

I feel like races against only your brothers doesn't count as a win. Specifically talking about that 2K.
