TheGooseIsLoose Farah never had a world record in 5k or 10k

Cheptegei is better... he is going to be the greatest of all time 🤴🏿🐐

@@fabiomiguel1800 way too soon to say he's better. Bekele *dominated* the long distance scene for over a decade, and it took an organised event with the best shoe technology, pacers, and the right track to beat Bekele's race records. He definitely has the potential to be the greatest as he's only 24 and will likely get better, but he has a long way too go, but is certainly capable

Don't forget about Farah. He was unbeatable for more than 6 years and completed one of the greatest doubles not once, twice, but not three times.

@@fabiomiguel1800 as long as he stays consistent with his times, he will eventually be known as the greatest long distance runner of all time. He already has the times, he just needs more performances under his belt.

😂😂

the time was probably still faster than the previous wr😂

👑

There is no such thing as "next generation of distance runners" there is one or two outstanding runners in every generation.....

Shandy Torok that’s not true in any way

they will make middle distance look ugly

IKR, imagine the times they could run if PEDs were legalised

Agree! Too often the women are forgotten

I'm ugandan and I love Gidei. She runs like a kob and antelope. So gracious.

I agree I hope he does a video about her, her route to record-breaking. You have very few likes, I hope more people like your comment so the video becomes a reality.

The bonfires of technology you mean? This was a staged event. Disgraceful. Kenenisa and Tirunesh got robbed

Haha

Exactly true

Your boss just told me to tell you.. He cut your pay 20%😉

@@andrewgill6882 🤣🤣🤣

@@andrewgill6882 I have hours in the bank anyways. Instead of finishing at 4:00 I finished at 3:30. Big whoop!

Four I believe

Plus the half marathon 🔥🔥🔥

3 by the same person

He will become a sure GOAT,only 24 years old

Lol his only 3 races this year 😂

I’m excited to see bolt’s record broken

That’s the greatest of humans 😁

Your statement stands but as humans we have hit our pinnacle. It is only through technology that we are advancing any further. For example: Bekele didnt have flashing pace lights, but we also have better shoes, track conditions, supplements(legal and not), analytics, etc.

@@johnathanhardee6953 Yes, I actually still think that Bekele is a faster and stronger athlete than Joshua (in terms of raw talent).

@Johnathan Hardee great remark! He did break the time by 6 seconds which is huge. That means it’s more then just the pacing of the lights because at that level, pacing is so perfect with or without light, those advancements should only affect it by 1-2 seconds not a whole 6 seconds

You douhted for no reason they train in Ricky mountains every morning

Yeah Kimeli is incredible

@@robinbauer1975 this should not be official. The wavelights on the track are cheating methods. This is the same as the Lazer Kipchoge followed in the ineos challenge

@@waterproof4403 well it is buddy, nothing you can do about it

Bekele would also break this wr with the help of the new technology

He is indeed a great athlete and congrats for the world record. the issue with spikes could be debatable but those LED light's would give an advantage if chasing something visible

The spikes Bekele wore for his run would actually be banned by todays rules.

Bekele in his prime with the best shoes, best pacers, and on the best track in an organised WR attempt could've probably done a 25:55. He made 61 second laps look effortless in the middle of his 10k races

@@Ben-rl8zj why?

Uuummmm...

@@fidsvids4760 Chill its a joke, and a good one at that.

buck compton 👍

Bekele also did not have new shoe technology with energy return that the dragonfly’s have

@@timothyhart5791 - Excuses

@@alwaysincentivestrumpethic6689 . Science moron. Just like a wheel rolls better than a square.

They are both incredible athletes so nobody cares.

@mpgrewaI00 The fact that he ran nearly even splits makes this world record much more meaningful, as you have to maintain a certain pace for such a long time, to the extent that the brain starts to do anything to make running more appealing. That is why Bekele was able to run the time he could, his brain was focused enough to at least let Bekele give an amazing last lap, to break the world record, but Joshua's brain was taking a beating as it had to withstand the constant boredoms of running at an even pace. Now yes there is better shoe and track technology, but there is also better technology to find out if an athlete is doping, and I am not saying Bekele is doping, but it is more likely that he was doping than if Joshua Cheptigei was doping. As to the weather, yes I agree that Cheptigei had an advantage, but if you notice, Kenenisa Bekele had way more people come, obviously because of COVID-19, but still there is an advantage in having people as you have more things to stimulate your mind, and as I stated before running at a same rythmn is boring and if there no crowd, your brain has even less things to "entertain" it's self. Even in their prime I still think Dibaba and Bekele would have not been able to attack this record.

True he almost lapped the last pacer kimeli who has a 5000 metres PB of 12.51

😂

@@leonardtoo985 Wow , that's insane. Am now inspired to put more energy in my early morning jogging.

🤣🤣🤣

neither do I, he could do it but the likeliness isn't the highest, he does have an unbelievable pain tolerance though

Its definitely possible, he is clearly in very good shape. He's made the 10k and 5k records look easy

@@chasebrown850 yeah I suppose so, but the half marathon is over double the distance and he doesn't have enough time to shift his training to adapt to that distance change

I think he should attack the half marathon before he loose form

@@leonardtoo985 he won't lose form for a long time, he's just now breaking records, he could kill the half marathon record in 6 or 7 years though, if she shifts his training

Thanks dear

This is cheating

I was also around that age haha But come on cheptegeis record shouldn't be official. He had this whole event staged

People are quick to forget. 😢

He got robbed by stupid technologies

Its a robbery to previous record holders

Rhonex Kipruto is looking at this comment

Might never be broken due to the 2020 circumstances.

Elvathar ???

@@Elvathar this record should not be official. This is massive cheating

THIS WASNT A RACE

It was a time trial like the INEOS challenge NOT A WORLD RECORD

Cheater you mean

Cheating

I agree! Too many times it feels the men's events are the 'main event' and the women's sidelined a bit. Their races are just as exciting and just as impressive feats! But tbf as a woman, I'm definitely more interested in watching women's events than men's, so a little biased 😂 Otherwise, great content.

Linkmon99 sucker

OMG hi I’m a fan

Hi lol!

yeah, that break my heart too

Oh, yeah, I think that being the greatest sucks these days...

He's the second fastest human 5000, 10000 & marathon. Plus he has three Olympic gold medals and plenty of xc titles.

@@lovemesomehow2957 hes not the second. He is the first and greatest. Cheptegei had wave lights on the track guiding him. Shouldn't be official

He has no chance. He resigned when his mates who would have been his competition were injured. They came back and he can't even beat them now in marathon as he has been lucky to be injury free. But he is the slowest champion ever. These guys run time now not technical races. That's why cheptegei follows his watch now not people besides him.

I don't think so. That guy is 3.28 1500 meters. If the race will be slow Farah will take it

@@leonardtoo985 That was a long time ago, and Cheptegei will try to run a faster pace all the time, making it hard for Mo to stay in touch for the last lap.

No, because the Tokyo Olympics will not happen next year either due to Covid19, and by then Mo will have retired for good. And someone even faster than Cheptegei. Who will be 10 seconds faster than him by then?

Leonard Too Cheptegei will go our fast so that it isn’t a tactical race and take it from the start

Cheating *

10 days rest is plenty for young fit athlete...

The lights are cheating method

I think he was watching his watch to be able to break his record again. I believe he is capable of breaking 26.maybe not this year. But nobody can doubt him now. Just think. He ran over 1 second faster, per 400m lap. ... Than his pace from the road 10k WR

That's what I was thinking! But still great athlete

This shouldn't be official Kenenisa got robbed.

@@bekeku those wave lights are a cheat

This is cheating

potentially, he'll just need to pop off in world championships and olympics for the next nine or so years and easily be the greatest by far

It’s called doping

@@gustavopaulette3496 bruh just because someone is fast doesn't mean they're doping, I think if you were running from the age of 6 and at an extremely high altitude training your whole life you would be pretty fast too

Kamwomor split a last 5k in 13:01 when he raced the half marathon world championship

@@purpleprince1010 Very impressive, but he had a tailwind the whole way and I'm talking here about 10000m races on the track (hence "second half")

Bekele and haile ran a 12:57 & 12:58 in the second half of their 2003 world championship 10k. Fitting for two former world record holders

@@dacostasmith7131 That's what I was referring to in my comment (2003 world championships). Doesn't answer my question.

ah idk if it has ever happened again. but if anyone did it again then it was probably bekele or Haile lol

You mean the greatest doper?

the only reason Cheptegei was on point was because of the kangaroo shoes and robot pacing him with the wavelights. Bekele would have absolutely put this record beyond the cosmic horizon if he has such help. Cheptegei will never come close to the legacy of Haile and Kenensia

@@9034833838 😂 I see what you mean. Mo Farah was lucky because he was conpeteting in a rather weak era. Kenenisa got injured after 2012 this why mo was dominant

Maybe yes...maybe not

Probably, but he once said that he doesn't care if his records get broken in the future, because at his time with the current technology he was the best, and he knows in the future better technologies and trainings will come

No he would not...he would have been 10-15 seconds faster at a minimum (and that assumes that the shoes give no more than a 1% advantage). After saying that, Joshua looked so smooth that in a real race I think he can go faster than this. Sub 26 mins is a definite possibility
