Crazy run all around. Jakob 12:48 not surprising at all but the big takeaway is winning the race. Gebrihiwet came of the Ethiopian 10k trials and ran in old (?) tech shoes, great showing from him. Canadians crazy good and did Katir dip under the old ER? Cheptegei will have a hard time at the olympics if no one can help him push the pace.
Would be exciting to see Jakob at a 5k vs Barega - Wale - Kejelcha - Kiplimo - Gebrihiwet rested with new spikes. I think Jakob is a lock for at least silver at the 1500 - but beating fast-twitch Cheriuyot is extremely hard and going for 5k might have a higher gold medal chance. After this showing I’d still give him a real shot at the 1500 gold though.
