I know this sounds stupid, but it’s not a guarantee that Jakob could do what Nico just did after running all the rounds of the 1500. Nico is a real contender to win, he closed in 1:54 flat-1:53 high in a 12:45 race.
who cares about records, Nico ran a brilliant race and his close was insane. records will come and go but being able to kick like that is what it's all about.

Maybe, but it's not any better than Gebriwhet running 12:36 last year and then not even medalling. Or Aregawi closing a 12:40 in similar splits. Jakob is still a level ahead.
A lot of respect has to go to Mills for that race. He took it on from the front with three laps to go and made it a hard run for home when others were happy to let it drift and come down to a kick. A 59 penultimate lap is pretty great running

Jakob is injured. He is not currently the favorite.

Does anyone know what Jakob's last 800 was in his PB race for comparison sake?
