The best part was Ingebrigtsen letting everyone destroy themselves. At top of hill on lap 3 there was a good gap. He caught those 3 on downhill and then just ran a couple feet in front of them for a few seconds almost like saying I'm still here, then he tucked in again. Guy races so smart. If he runs world xc championships again he'll have to be ready for insane pace up front.

I just don't see him beating the Cheptegei, Kiplimo, Kamworor trifecta, but I hope he's in the mix with them up until the end!

The fact that you pronounce even an international name like Jakob almost perfectly like we would say it Norway (which probably sounds weird to others) makes your channel so much better, it shows that you really care!

[@workouteveryday]

I agree with you 😍😍

[@throwingshade9315]

I think Jacob Ingebrigtsen will break the 1500m world record before or at the 2024 Olympic Games.

[@bambus0404]

To break a record he needs a rabbit. That will not happen in the Olympics.

[@throwingshade9315]

Historically, I agree with you. But... 1- I'm not saying that Ingebrigtsen will break the world record in the next Olympics. I'm suggesting he will break the record before the next Olympics or at the next Olympics. 2- Ingebrigtsen is able to hold a fast pace and he also has one of the most leathal finishing kicks. For this reason, 1500m racers can no longer race slowly hoping to kick for a late victory, and 1500m runners have been increasing the pace for the duration of the 1500m in important races. A good example is the last 1500m Olympic race. In the right race, I could see Ingebrigtsen breaking the the 1500m world record without the need of a pacer.

[@bambus0404]

@@throwingshade9315 without a rabbit they will not hold the INSANE pace needed from start to finish. 3.25.xx will surely need one, if not two, top notch rabbits.

[@blainenewton7188]

He'll probably run 3:27 mid for 1,500m outdoor and between 12:40 and 12:45 for 5,000m outdoor... I'd personally like to see him focus on some 800m races, if not this year then next year. The 800m is obviously not his strength, but if he could get his time down to at least 1:44 low, I think he has a shot at the 1,500m/mile records. He already has plenty of strength and volume.

[@sergelu]

Agree

[@ubercopywriter]

Would love to see him run a couple 800m races, too. Just to see what kind of speed he has.

[@pete5691]

He ran an 800 6 months ago or so. It just isn’t his specialty. Even Daniel Komen, whose profile Jakob most closely matches time-wise, didn’t race the 800 as far as I know. The training involved to go from 1:47 to 1:44 would ultimately sacrifice his 3000 and definitely his 5000 training.

[@pete5691]

1:47.18 was Hicham el gerrouj’s pb in the 800.

[@sergelu]

@@pete5691 He ran the last 800m of his 1500 Olympic gold in Athens in 1:46.89

[@kentxx12]

And remember Jakob Ingebrigtsen is still U23 runner :)

[@Trailrunner1978]

I think he will win the 1500, 5000 and 10.000 in the world championchips, if the schedule is ok for him to run the 10.000 also. He has said he wants to do it. When it comes to world records, I dont know, because most of them are tainted by possible EPO and PED use. I think its more realistic to take the world records in the 5000 or the 10.000 than in the 1500 meter.

[@pete5691]

He said he wants to triple? What kind of schedule would allow that? He already has the indoor 1500 world record which all of the greats ran also. I think his goal at this point, if he even sees it as a goal, is the 1500 meter record.

[@jhuffman52]

Yes

[@thomasgreen1914]

He's going to win events. But not going to break those world records until he runs across the line. Stop celebrating before he crosses the line. A true champion sprints through the line. He's racing the clock ⏰️ 👏

[@hanakejason]

I’ve noticed the same thing - Jakob usually jogs thru the line. That Olympic final could’ve easily been in the 327s

[@bambus0404]

Absolutely nobody cares about the time in a cross country. He only competes against the other runners.

[@pete5691]

What would running 3:27 mean? His OR would be slightly lower? He won it in record time. Let him celebrate. Record breaking is done with proper pacers with good weather. Nothing is gained by winning by 2 feet more.
