World Record is definitely going down this year. At least 3-4 guys capable of breaking it if everything lines up

Dude on the last fricking lap when I saw gebrihwet ahead of the lights that were at 12:41 PACE, I knew he was going to run some monstrous time holy crap

I was impressed by 12:49.04 from Thomas Longosiwa at 30 years and 6 months, 12:53.60 by Bernard Lagat at 36 years and 7 months, and 12:58.99 at Bernard Lagat 38years and 9 months. But THIS... This is simply next level. One of the most, if not THE MOST CONSISTENT 5000m runner in history.

Now he and Kejelcha need to race the Paris 5000m with some purpose.

Super impressive, crazy how 13 broke 13 minutes and it seemed like half of those set new national records too in that race(too lazy to actually count)

Post-race comment:
The time I achieved is very nice. This is my second time running in Oslo and I really like this city and this stadium. When I was here for the first time, I improved my PB. And now, it is even better. The conditions, the crowd was great and it was a very fast race, not easy for me but it was going very well. The race had some very nice guys running - my friend Kejelcha is a very good guy. I train alone and we did our own race but we are the same country so we are both happy. I will try 10k, maybe I will qualify with the 10k at the Olympics so I want to compete there.

I knew it was going to be fast because he went through in 11:40 with 400m to go and noticeably went faster. The lights are not necessary if you do some simple math in your mind. 1 minute laps make it extra simple, 60 flat is 12:30 pace, 61 flat is 12:42.5... So to run 12:42.5 you need to see the time on the clock go up by 1 second every lap, 61, 2:02, 3:03, 4:04, etc.... I think people overestimate the usefulness of the lights.
