Kipchoge, Bekele & Kamworor team up with amateur runners this weekend

This guy was clearly overjoyed to get a call from Bekele. What a great event in these somewhat barren times for traditional racing.

The embedded video doesn't seem to work so will need to click through to view.

Btw Kamworor is topping the leaderboard with Bekele further down the top 50. No sign of Kipchoge yet. I guess it will depend whether these guys treat it as part of a training run.

What an amazing gesture from these guys to reach out and not only team up with, but talk to total strangers!!

Great ambassadors for our sport.

This event is so frikkin awesome. Elite racers from all over the world is getting together.
Killian Jornet is teaming up with two road running swedes and some other mountain runner. Looks like Killian accodently ran too short the first time and had to run another time, everyone in that team averaged at 3:03min/km.

Gideon Kipketer tool the oppurtunity to run it on a downhill, 170meter descend track.

The top list can be seen here:

Or in the strava app.

Here is the individual leaderboard, you can check out their individual runs:

Surprised there hasn't been more publicity for this given the calibre of the elite entrants!

Kipchoge, Cheptegei and Legese posted their runs today... Kamworor still on top with a ~28:50 10K time

Nick Willis in the mix too... blaming pancakes for his performance

Where can I find full results for all pros?

I only know that Kamworor's time was faster Kipchoge and Bekele and that Bekele was even slower than Kilian Jornet.

1. Geoffrey Kamworor 30:08 for 10.6km
3. Eliud Kipchoge 31:28 seconds for 10.5 km
3. Kilian Jornet 32:25s afor 10.6 km.
4. Kenenisa Bekele - 32:57 for 10.5km

How fast did the other people below run?
