Aouita was great and his range unparalleled, but was #1 miler/1500 guy only 2 years per TFN, 1984 and 1987. He of course did not focus on the 1500/mile.
Given that Henrik is now Jakob's coach and Gjert has had to step back due to health issues, do you now worry there is not someone who will tell Jakob to slow down and be cautious if he does get injured? In the TV show Gjert, maybe counter to what I had in mind beforehand, was actually the voice of reason and extremely cautious with injuries, whereas Henrik caused himself more trouble by trying to rush back too quickly.
Hopefully Jakob can continue to stay healthy, because injuries are the one thing that could potentially de-rail his expected period of dominance over the next few years.
I don’t know what Henrik being Jakob’s coach means. Jakob has been training seriously for about 10 years and Henrik has never won a medal so there’s really no reason for Jakob to take his older brother’s advice.

How many medals did Brother Colm O'Connell win before coaching Rudisha?

Yeah much better with Gjert that has won those 10 legendary olympic golds. Why did he take his advice?
