Age 23-24 is where most distance world records are achieved. He’s 22 so I think it’s in the cards. He will have all world records from 3k to 10k when it’s all said and done. The cheater shoes will insure that.

* ensure
It would be unlikely for shoes to insure anything.

Even less popular opinion: indoor WR's are nice soft targets for top elites with no chance at an outdoor WR.
Hard to view 7:24 indoor 3k as soft
There's a lot more times at or near 7:24 than there are at or near 7:20.
800+ GOAT Augustine Choge is still high on that list. Jakob will do pretty well to beat his 7:28 flat. But he'll need that sub 1:45 to challenge Choge's status as all-around king.

Your Augustine you can throw it in a the forgotten basket with no World Athletics or Olympic titles. He didn't event get a bronze medal in these events.

And yet yoh know his name and he diesn't know yours.

Yes, genius, this is how it works. The 7:20 was outdoors, 7:24.9 indoors. Different tracks, more turns, blah blah blah. But you're not interested in how things really work, we get it..
I wrote 2:33.x per km and somehow it was turned into that link.
But it's 2:34 per km.
2:34/K is 12:50. Obviously to break a 12:49 WR you’d have to run 2:33.x per K.
Jakob can get the 3ki record record. He’s capable of a faster 3k than Wale (7:24.98i), Barega (7:26.10i) and Aregawi (7:26.20i). Nobody has run faster than both 3:28.32 and 12:48.45. The fastest 5k runner with a sub-3:30 to his name is Daniel Komen. The second fastest sub-12:50 guy over 1500 is Daniel Komen (behind Jakob). Jakob ran 7:27.05 prior to his 20th birthday, before he became an Olympic champion, before he ran 12:48, before he dismantled arguably the best 5k field ever assembled to win WC gold.
Wish Fisher and Kerr would enter and try and stick with him as much as possible. They would both annihilate the US and UK records
Kerr isn't exactly in the same league as Fisher. He's been somewhat disappointing the last few years (by our high standards). I'd bet some Ethiopian would have more success than him.
