NICO YOUNG joins Haile Gebrsellasie as ONLY athletes EVER to

He is also by far the youngest of the small rare ELITE💥 group 👍

Damn! Thanks for finding and sharing this awesome stat.

Thank goodness we aren't talking "could of"

That would be terrible.

Sub 1.50 in the same season as running the other times?

Yes Just HAILE And NICO

800m to 10000m

have broken the following barriers in the same year/season

Sub 1:50 for 800m, sub 3:35 for 1500, sub 13 for 5000m, and sub 27 for 10000m

1500 thru 5000

Haile, Kenenisa, Salah Hissou, and Mo Farah

Of the 4 men besides Nico to do it in the 1500, 5000, and 10000m all went on to be multiple World or Olympic Champions

Nico Young has not run sub 3:35.

Galen Rupp: 1:49.87 + 26:44.36

Mo Farah: 1:48.24 + 26:46.57

Andreas Almgren: 1:45.59 + 26:52.87

According to WA, 78 athletes have run sub 27 for 10000m.

The level of your stats VIP seem to be on par with your way of presenting them.

There are quite possibly close to zero sub-27 guys who couldn't break 1:50 and definitely zero sub- 13 guys. The top 5000 guys are almost closing in 1:50. You can put the HAVE in there to try and make your stat seem more impressive all you want but its denying reality. Keep living in your delusions though.

Sorry, Young has run sub 3:35.

Clown

He did the right thing, apologized and corrected himself. He acted like a grown up. Maybe one day you will learn how to behave like one.

YOU ARE OBVIOUSLY INFATUATED with being stupid 😳.

Nico Young has run sub 3:35 taking 3.4 seconds off his 3:37.7 1500m pb

Maybe it's hard for you to COMPREHEND breaking ALL the prementioned barriers in the same CALENDAR YEAR/season. It's ONLY 5 men to do it the same year from 1500 to 10000m.

And ONLY Haile and Nico have broken all from the 800m to 10000m in the same calendar year/season

SERIOUSLY SIR get a clue

I don’t know if I’d accuse VIPAM of being delusional over this, but I agree with the sentiment: it might be a “neat” stat, but it doesn’t mean Nico’s actually operating in such rarified air. I know there’d be more to meet the criteria if you expanded the scope to “within 12 months” (Rupp, Ahmed, Almgren, Fisher and Barega may just be scratching the surface), and I’m sure many of the 131 guys who have run sub-13 could have done this. I’d wager Almgren, Fisher or maybe Gressier will join the list this year.

So again, I respect your right to point out this stat, but let’s not get carried away with what it means.

It means exactly what it says, you either have or haven't broken the barriers in the same year. There are some athletes that ran tg subs in the 5000 and 10000m and they also ran 1500m but THEY couldn't /DIDN'T run sub 3:35 the same year. It's easy for some elites in a career but not so easy in the same calendar year...get it?

It's only pointing out that Nico is the only other athlete besides Haile who ACTUALLY completed the rare feat from 800 to 10000m in the same calendar year.

Doing all three in a time span of 7 weeks is unprecedented for sure.

Nico will never rank 5 in a World Championship 5000m at the age 17.

He will never run 12mins 43 sec in a 5000m at the age 17.

Nobody has ever run 12:43 at 17?

*Unpresidented

Nico did it with super shoes so far less impressive

Does that mean he is as good as the other runners in the “club”? All of them have won Olympic gold, and all except Mo have set WRs. Nico has yet to make an Olympic team.
