Whether he decides to run the 5 or the 10 at the olympic's doesn't matter. With that crazy kick he will cruise right into a top 3 spot!

The last Olympic 10000m was won in a time nearly 30 seconds faster than Levins' PR.
He doesn't have a prayer.
But he has the speed!
Let's not forget that even Galen has closed in 4:00, in a year where he got dusted in the last km at worlds. It's one thing for Cam to be able to close in 55, but it's a whole new game when the kenyans are going sub 60 with a mile to go. Regardless, great run today!

Yes, but that isn't particularly useful if he's 200+ meters behind when he reaches the 4600m mark
Not gonna happen when the last 800 is sub 1:55 with the last 5K being faster than Levins' 5K PR.
Levins isn't there yet, but I think he can develop into a world class runner over the next four to six years. Hopefully he'll wind up with a good coach professionally.
Common sense right there for you. Levins has no chance and if you believe he does then I suggest you bring some tissues as you be crying when you see levins get completely ROCKED!
In technical terminology, every individual has a chance at the 10000m gold medal if they start the final race. :)
