I want to give attention to the coach. Yomif, soon after Olympics, decided to change coach, joining the group of Gemedu Degefo, of course looking at a future as road runner.
In his plan there is the debut in full Marathon, probably at the end of the next season.
Till now, Yomif's longest run is 30 km, of course at fast pace, and this training can explain his improvement in specific endurance at the speed of HM, compared with the previous PB (57'41") when he suffered in the last km, in spite of better weather compared with the weather of this year.
Next year, Yomif will continue to prepare track, probably trying to attack the WR of Cheptegei in both 5000 and 10000m. Under this point of view, Gemedu is a guarantee of success, and deserves to be considered one of the most prepared coach in the World.
