Jakob is BEYOND Cooked for the 1500m this season. NUGUSE/KERR/HOCKER 1:44.77-1:45.13. He will never win another 1500 Title Again

Why go back to Tokyo 2021?

Didn´t he win 4 international championship finals earlier this year!?

Where the best in the world didn't bother turning up.

You’re so right! Now that we have this information, are we able to discount the medals of Hocker, Kerr, and Nuguse, since they were paced wire to wire last year?

I actually think the question "Will he or won't he ever win another Olympic Gold or Outdoor World Title in the 1500 meters?" is a good question.

Given how those races tend to play out and how infrequently they occur, there's no guarantee that he will.

I understand that you don´t consider the OG Paris 10000m silver medalist who is also no 3 alltime in the 3000m as one the best in the world.

AND Coscoran who just outsprinted Fisher in the GST 3000m was destroyed by Jakob in both the Apeldoorn and the Nanking 3000m.

He will, he will, don't worry!

1:46/3:26.7/7:17/7:54/12:48, plus many-time Euro xc champ, makes for some pretty solid range right now. Who are you comparing him to? Augustine Choge ran 1:44/3:29/12:53ish, on up to marathon. Webb ran 1:43.8/3:30/3:46/13:10/27:34. Even El G had a 1:46 pr, with 3:26.0/3:43/7:23/12:50. Aouita ran 1:43/3:29/3:46.9/12:58/27:17. Jakob could stand to knock down that 800 pr or throw down a good 10000m but he's well on his way to best range for a 1500m runner considering the quality of his marks from 1500 through 5000m.

I meant range as in being the best not his range of events. Right now his resume in the 1500 is short of Morceli and El Guerrouj.

If it was my main event and I hadn't won a global title since 2021 I would be wondering if I ever would again.

Of course. You have the mentality of a loser.
