I'd be interested if he was going for the outdoor record. The indoor record doesn't do much for me.

With the shoes, 12:35 became possible for everyone who was running in the 12:40's and 12:50's before. Only about a 1% improvement. Magic 4% shoes, easy peasy.
Prediction, Chelimo 12:31. Buy the shoes! They will make you fast like him.
2600
No. His plan is to slow down to just nip the indoor record by .01.
Good luck Paul Chelimo!
Can he get the record? Yes it is possible, this man has the tools, the head-set and the tough attitude. Is he fit?
Don't take Rupp's record lightly. It is a strong mark. Rupp 2014 did not have super shoes, but he did have his best competitive year in the 5000 (ranked world 4th, place 3rd in Diamond league final.)
Looking forward to this run.
100% here for Chelimo doing anything in our sport. At least he's not boring. I like him snagging this record and putting the pressure on Lopez to go out and hit something fast.

Streets are saying that the AR is toast and that he may target the 10k soon after as well. Just needs decent pacing.
Word is he still just keep running after shattering the 5k record. He might stop briefly to explain to this to the timing crew but the 10k record is also going down. En route. Or Ex route in this case.
Damn these shoes are even better than I thought!!

Rojo, please start putting "indoor" in front of indoor records. It's confusing.
Agree
What does it matter? Pretty soon Kenyan transplants will own every distance AR, indoor & out.
Awwwwe, is Chelimo not enough “American” for you? ?
Chill Paulimo
Wasn't Chelimo rocking prototype Dragonflies in 2019 anyway? At least by Doha final.
Hopefully he'll salute at the end of the race, just to remind us what a hero he is.
Smart so he can break it again & collect bonuses.
Anybody know if this will be streamed?
13:04
I predict that he will look back 627 times with no problem, but on the 628th time he looks back, he will step on the rail and trip.
PS: CHELIMO!!!!
what time is the race starting?
