I don't believe the workout as well.
Based off that, he should be able to string 4 laps in 55sec each on his ear! 3:40 mile - BANG.

Excuse my lack of knowledge, can someone explain?

Geb in 1997-1998 would have waxed Bekele.

Geb was a better 5k guy than Bekele.
Bekele a bit better at 10k.
They were not equal.
See recent thread where Ventolin explains this.
The session was actually (as reported) 8 x 400m 52-54s,(800m pace) 90-120sec recovery jog, 200m 24-25s (400m pace) 90-120s rec jog, done at 2300m asl.
Once again, this workout is wrong dated.
The workout starts with 200m and finish with 400m.
8x (400 in 52-54, rest, 200 in 24-25) w/ 90sec-2min rest b/w everything.
This is wrong.
The correct workout is 8x (200 in 24-25, rest, 400 in 52-54) w/ 90sec-2min rest b/w everything.
If you take a close look at the graphic, the first set is 200m followed by 400m and not 400m followed by 200m.
And we're supposed to believe that KB wore a heart rate monitor and gave the details to this website for analysis? Not likely...

You might be right. ther´s no guarantee that this graphic is from Bekele whatever.
I just take the graphic as it is presented. It really doens´t matter me if is from you or Bekele. What i see it´s that by graphic spacial and distance measure the first high pick set is shorter that 30seconds and the second one set is longer than the first one, lengthier than 50seconds, and this kind of sequence is repeated.
It´s just a curiosity and accuracy more than great importance. the scenario doesn´t change.
What i want to emphasise is how the taked for grant science is suposed accuracy when in this case it´s not.
The guy that took out this data got a blog that is titled "Science...", but this got no science at all, since he based his comment about this (suposed) Bekele workout with wrong assumption.
