Mo seems to be capable of running 12:48 if somebody else does the pacing.
So assuming somebody would try to win by front running, how fast would they need to run in order to drop him? 12:45? 12:40?

12:47.99
12:48 Farah wins easily. 12:40 at least.
Jog the first 4000 meters and then out kick him.
I already explained on another thread that for a front-running strategy to succeed, you must be in 10 seconds/5K better shape. So at least 12:37, which explains all of the recent championships results.
The only guy I see that could throw a wrench on Farah is Kemboi. He can open up a 3m gap in an instant. Ndiku might succeed with today's strategy if he can stay healthy until Rio.
