Ventolin nailed it insofar as Merga. Didn't have the extra gear in the last lap.

I give ventolin credit for nailing that time for Merga, but he would never have said that Farah could go 26:46. I have not looked back to see what he predicetd, if he did, for Mo but I am guessing he did not give Mo credit for anything faster than 26:53.

Of course, his real value in 5000m the same day of his 10000m could be about 12'55", that in any case means 40" more than the double of the PB in 5000myou don't seem to know the guy's capabilities & you are his coach !!!
you can't run 26'30 off only 12'55 intrinsic ability
a more likely line of fit for kemboi that day is :
52.20 / 1'50.8 -> 3'35.3 , 7'27.0 , 12'45.3 , 26'25.5
i assume that 12'55 is a typo
seriously, gfy.

To assume you know more than Canova (about his own athlete) is arrogant and ignorant.
I find Ventolins contributions to be enlightening and informative. Especially when he predicts numbers for runners that I am a fan of. Lighten up people.

Heck, doesn't he know that elites don't strike with their heels?

In any case, I suppose 13'18" a little fast for Rupp and Solinski, they could have more opportunity of a good time with a split of 13'25" after 5 km : but, in this occasion, they have to try to stay, also for clearly understanding their current possibilities.
Same situation about Mo Farah.
