More details with video and interview with Kejelcha at link below.
Workout was
1st set 44.7, 28.7
2nd set 43.1, 26 mid
3rd set 44 point (timing from video), 27.5
4th 42 point (41.8 and 42.6 was the range on this)
5th?
6th, the final 200 (26.4 is in video below)
Now I am even more pissed off.
Just watched the video. It's crazy how skinny he is, pretty good workout.
The music was loud in there. It makes it harder to hear the interview questions.
What made him decide to have an American coach when there is a translation barrier?
Is Kejelcha married yet?
What is the current goal/mission of the NOP?
I thought the goal was to develop Americans to compete against the world.
Then came Farah, Saguro, kejelcha--is the goal now to just develop Nike athletes?
What spikes is he wearing?

So what? That´s not very fast for a runner of his caliber. A 3,45 1500 runner could do 15x300 in 45 with a minute rest without killing himself.
The goal is to find the best responders to their secret sauce. It turned out that many of the best responders are not American.

I asked Kejelcha how good his English is off camera. He definitely understands it pretty well but his inclination was to answer to the translator in Amharic.
I then asked Tim how hard it was too communicate with Yomif. He said he's around him so much it's not hard at all. They seem to have a close relationship.
Yomif is enjoying himself. He laughed histerically when he was asked about eating pancakes without syrup prior to the Boston meet.

It's 2 days before a WR attempt, dude. Nothing more than pace (300) plus finish (200).

That was exactly my point, but wejo made it sound like it was some superhuman effort.
WR attempt destined to fail.
No freaking way is Napolitano going to be able to hold pace through 1000m in 2:21.

Yeah I easily did that workout when I was a 1:54 guy. More curious what he did in real workouts, not his last minute tuning.

Average sharpener session for a 3:59 miler. Not thread-worthy

They should have had Murphy rabbit in 2:20.

Reason why a lot of runners suck and underperform. This workout is meant to grease the grooves. And more importantly, he is working within himself. Sure a slower runner could do this, but they would be overextending themselves shortly before the race. And yes, this is news worthy for a couple of reasons. One, this is shortly before his World record attempt. Two, NOP is very secretive about their training. Three, it's MF Yomif Kejelcha.
Interesting look into YK pre-Wanamaker.

Are they going to post that he did some strides the day before the race? And this content is supposed to be interesting?
1st rep in 13s
Jog back
2nd rep?
3rd rep 14s

The other day he used the victory 3 or the victory elite 2, just the standard OTC versions.
