Then just mail Jakob his gold medal in advance. If any of the rest want to win, they will need to be brave. If they can’t or won’t, they have zero chance. None of them can cover the last 1500 as fast as Jakob if it’s been a stroll in the park up until that point.
Well they mailed it to Mo Farah until it got lost in the mail and Muktar Edris said finders keepers.
Mo is no Jakob, as we just saw again. If they get 1000-1500 out and Jakob is not at the red line, bye bye to the field.

A strong, easy win for Jakob. Pulled away from a charging Kerr and Girma that final 100.
I don’t know if he’ll ever get the wr, but in this 3:27-3:29 range Jakob’s just too strong for any of them over the last 150. He’s unbeatable now, or very close to it.

Jakob will have his work cut out to end up as decorated an athlete as Mo Farah though. Remember Mo ran 3:28 and was a 4 time Olympic champion and 6 time world champion, plus two World Championship Silvers.
I dont think you can even beat Jakob in the 5k by going fast. It's pretty clear he is in WR shape in the 3k, and I don't think it's far off to say he is also the best 5k runner in the world.

The strongest contenders were not in this race, but yes it’s a big hill to climb for them. I do think one of Tim, Reynold, Nuguse, Katir will make him sweat in the last 100 of the World final.

Jakob can be defeated at 5000m. You take Jakob I will take the field. He is not invincible. Not even close.
I think he actually won that very easy. He did not give his best bar the last 100 m. You could just see how he juiced up the last 100 meter. Jakob has a lot more in his tank.

Mo didn't have any competitor like Kiplimo, Cheptegei Girma etc
