That's the truth. However, it's about to be put away in nikes for a very, very long time. 1500m and up will then have been set in the swoosh.

I see Double Doot is a Bekele fan. On a personal note, I've spent a fair amount of time over the years with many Nike elites, including Kipchoge and Bekele. By far and away, Eliud is the warmest of them all. He's just a very kind person. I will reserve my unkind comment on KB.

No, it isn´t.
The adidas shoes do look simpler than the nikes, which I like. No plate, just boost

What is the WR for the mile?

#1 Bekele fan, actually.
Eliud seems like a great person. Loved his interviews in the Breaking 2 doco. However, Bekele is the better runner; his personality is irrelevant. Maybe he smelled the hater in you and kept you at a distance?

Easy, little fella. Not a hater at all. I just call it like I see it. Many people would probably be disappointed in their "heros" if they spent time with them. Regardless, a truly incredible athlete. Anyway, steering away from the negative direction, if Kipchoge won Berlin in a WR time, how would you rank the careers of the two?

I couldn't care less about their personalities. I admire their athletic prowess and nothing else. The charming personalities and all that are just nice little marketable bonuses.
Bekele > Geb > El G (not a huge fan) | Kipchoge maybe edging for El G because range.

I certainly agree with your rankings. It's hard to argue against multiple wr's and multiple championship golds. Would be interesting to trackbot Kipchoge and Bekele.
Trackbot! Please compare Eliud Kipchoge and Kenenisa Bekele .
Just in, no WR. Shoes don't matter?
What shoe was Adola wearing?

You know he was second, right?
Bump
Nike hold the marathon WR. Suck it.

ever heard of Wang Junxia (Mizuno)?
Nike has at most 1 world record, possibly 0, below 1500m. Officially jogger footwear.

You must be a horrible person if you didn't get on with Bekele. What did you do and what did he do to you? He is the worlds greatest runner and I'm literally dying to meet him and be close to him. I wish I had your opportunity. If Bekele was annoyed with you I'm sure Kipchoge was to but he just smiled his annoyance away like he does with the pain in the thon.

Your gimmick has got old and boring, time to lay it to rest.
