Future 13:10/27:20/60:00/2:04

First the 5000m, then the one hour race on friday and then the 10000m just two days later. Let's just hope he don't burn himself out!

You’re right and going by his media presence on YouTube and all those videos he’s producing he seems to have an extremely busy, active life. You wonder how he has enough hours in his day to complete training, produce the YouTube videos, socialize and do all the other things necessary in life.

Just imagine if this guy lives like a Kenyan and trained like a Kenyan with rest in between how good he would become. Not sure who his coach is (or if he even has one? ) but it might be recommended he get top class coaching so that his evident potential can be exploited to the best.

He ran 1329 for 5000 at age 19 which is right up there with guys like Farah and Galen Rupp and other guys like that. Logical progression within the next few years would be right down to around 1310 or even faster for 5000. People say he has no speed but if you actually observed him in that one hour race when he ran behind Mo Farah matching strides with the goat and that was super impressive. . . Other, that was at the end of a one hour race imagine what he could do in a track race in a 10,000 m, possibly around 54 seconds which will be right up there

Emil’s body shape and style remind me of Karel Lismont, the multi medalist in European and Olympic games in the marathon and top-flight cross country runner with a third place in the world cross country. Lismont ran 2755 for 10,000 m on the track even though he confessed to having little or no speed. Karel Lismont, the dour Belgian who never smiled, very different from this outgoing Swede of South American roots.

Back in 2014 is a tiny 13-year-old he ran 4356 in a famous 10 km road race in Sweden. Solid running for a tiny little guy. Not a record by any means but pointing in the right direction. Surprising that’s in that race with around 100 guys running close to 40 minutes or better.

Can Swedish people looking at the previous results from 2014 sport any top class cross country skier’s in that 10 km result? In Norway must the top cross country skiers can run between 29 minutes and 31 minutes for a 10 km on the road even though they may be 1 m 90 and 80 kg!

Some typos in the previous post. But you can get the gist...sorry...

However one gets the feeling that in Sweden most youngsters are more interested in ice hockey and football soccer compared with endurance sports like long-distance running.

I checked up further on him and I take back that I said he wouldn`t have sprint speed enough . In Kenya at high altitude he did 10 x 1000m at 2:50 and last at 2:45 , then he finished off with 4 x 200m at 25,25,24, 23 sec !!!.....The guy really can be the next 5000/ 10000 GOAT!!! :) He is the same as the Ingebrigtsen`s coached by his father .

That`s absolutely correct. Our first national sport is soccer, football in Europe. Then comes ice -

hockey , then handball and floorball . Running is just a small sport in Sweden ( But of course many people even here runns to stay healthy ).

Not most of them, but some of them. Some of the best, never under 31 min, i.e. Petter Northug, But sure, that was more or less the standard 20-30 yrs ago. But due to how crosscountry skiing has developed - more muscles.

Impressive. But this must have been more than six months ago, I doubt they have travelled to Africa in corona-times!

Last year cross country skiier Didrik Tønseth ran 29,48 for 10000m and was nr. 25 in the european cross country championship, 1 min 26 secs behind swedish winner Fishia, later caught for doping!

Not many norwegian skiiers run 10000m, but some have quite good results on 3000m.

When you say quite good results on 3000 m I’m assuming times from 820 to 8:35?

Good physique for running, Tonseth

Monster aerobic machine these Vikings

It´s incredible that Emils 13.29 is only 4 sec off the American U20 record by G. Fernandez. I think he can go faster than 28.00 and probably faster than the Swedish national record 27.55.
