that's a nonsense statement
he couda already broken 1/2M wr 2+y ago in that arab 1/2M of 58'50+
they jogged the 1st 5k & just hammered more & more to finish
2+y ago he couda run 1/2M wr along with King Mutai
This is a very intelligent move from him
no
it's a slow move
it shows inept management
he was capable of all this in '13
i said he coud run 26'15 / 26'20 that day in that arab 1/2 M shape in '13
he's wasted 2y on M
The training for both Half marathon and 10000m training are very much the same
no
1 needs speed training
1 needs endurance training
guess which needs which ?
And judging from what Florence Kiplagat, who is also coached by Renato Canova has been able to do, Kamworor is headed for BIG things!
i said that 2+y ago after that 58'50+ but G2K wasted his time on M
G2K is a resurrection phenomenon, not new
he is most powerful kenyan 10k runner i have ever seen
This year and next year Mo Farah should be prepared because the two 10000m championships will be won in 26'40" or faster
sadly i hoped that 2y ago for moscow
G2K had no interest back then in 10k when he couda busted wr
he may be even close to now
26-flat
By early 2017 half marathon WR will be under 58'00", courtesy of Geoffrey Kipsang Kamworor
it's not a impressive number nor much interest
sammy wouda done it nearly decade ago if some pacing
however, i say now
G2k :
serious shot at
26-flat
Interesting you have such detailed thoughts and memories on him from 2 years ago after saying in the first post in this thread that the world XC was your first good look at him.
Oh well, some people have delusions.
