Anyone who can run 58.40 for a half marathon can probably run 26.40 for a 10000.

In this podcast (Danish) at 26:46:
"If Mo Farah was there tomorrow, he would not win. He wouldn't. He would demand a lot of money to come, and he would be a huge crowd puller (...), but he wouldn't win. First, he is not hungry enough, and second, he cannot run fast enough."
The race was won in the fourth fastest time ever in 58:40. Three men under 59 minutes, five under Mo's PR of 59:32, seven under one hour.
Why would I get nervous ?

Because people who break 59 run it. Oops I forgot we live in the 2000s where people don't care about true competition.
