Or at least a sub 8-minute two-mile attempt. Not much doubt he could have run that, is there? I mean, from here he'd have to run just 3:15 for another 1,220 metres, which for him is like jogging.

@@michaelsundell2422 he could have easily run 2 miles back to back in sub 4 , he was just too dedicated to the 1500 , plus that oympic gold he chased for 8 years played a big role in him not doing amazing things in other distances ,he had all it takes to take the world records of 3000 ,2 mile and 5000

@@nizarfa3668 You are right that El G was too dedicated to 1500m, and his 2000m record is fantastic. But i don't think that any of the greatest runners, Komen, Gebresselassie, Bekele, Morceli, Aouita, El G ever would say it's "easy" to break 8min for 2miles. The fact that only one person has done it (regardless it's a rarely run distance) strongly suggests that it is one of the toughest things to do. Running 3000m at about 7.26 and continue for 218m is extremely difficult for anyone, even for Komen who did it twice.

I think he could have Brocken that record too. This guy is just amazing!!!

I don’t see how being dedicated to the 1500 stops one from doing other distances. He had the record in 1998 and 6 years later won the 1500 and 5000 at the olympics which seems like enough time to try other records.

+Scott Dowell Same way Lance Armstrong looked after winning Alp D'huez...and we all knw about Lance don't we.

he is spécialiste in the 5000m too

Hermes3 go fuck yourself looser

@@hermes3430 we have proof about Lance , do you have any proof about Hicham or just blabla....???

His training regiment was insane.

Tom and Jerry

"know"

Still faster than you.

Same. Hell of a performance.

I would be around 1280-1300m by the time he hits the finish line hahahah *me proceeds to cry in the corner

My 1500 m is slower-4:49.

its faster than my 800m

you gotta do some more training bud

@@zachfriedman4263 You do realise I have had 10 months? I can do better now but I am NOT a runner.

@@jere.nurkka its ok if youre not a runner but im sure that if you train really hard you could maybe do it in under 4 minutes. the thing is that when someone isnt a runner they usually dont want to take the time training for no reason. if you gradually increase your milage to 35-40 miles a week, you will see huge improvements

@@zachfriedman4263 I did 2000m in 9:42 this summer. So I would guess like 4:10-4:15 might be possible. Thing about 1000m is I used to test that once a week in 2014 before I went to military times were like 4:10-4:20 but after 4 months there I tried it only once and got 4:04. I am 6'2 250 pounds guy and sure if I would cut down 185 and that would mean that I would turn into wimp who can barely bench 225 and struggles to deadlift 400 pounds I could with few years of training get like 3min 30 seconds at least. But I don't have genetics for running to get actually good. Any young male can run sub 4 min/1000m with training.

MrPappa2566 you might. Have genes suited for for sprinting if you’re long distance is not good. We have fast twitch and slow twitch muscles and fast switch dominant athletes will be better for sprinting but worse at long distance because they don’t have as much slow twitch muscles that are less powerful but more efficient. Everyone can be good at running at different distances because of genetics

wait was that at the manhattan invitational?

2:20:20

One of his doctor in France was surprise that EL G heart bigger in size than normal due to hard training. Also, I like the style of his running he look effortless.

You have no proof for Epo. It is talent. Runners on Epo have no consistent results. El G dominated the field between 1997 and 2004 establishing 5 WRs, running more than 32 times under 3:30 in 1500m, winning 8 times Zurich, 4 times WC, 2 Olympic titles ....etc.

chijanai no epo, raw talent and hard work.

I think ovett and coe could have beaten Jim Ryan over mile and 1500m

But not the no shoes WR.

nope🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂

Sorry but 4:44 for 800 m is a joke. You're trolling , walking or in extremely bad health.

Even an average person can do a 3:30 800 m with literally no training considering that they have just average health and fitness.

Alan Samuel Am slightly above average and I can clock an 800m in 2:40, you gotta work man.

gakaface thats a tad bit slow. But you can improve.

Guerrouj still holds the record

Yes

And he is going:)

I think he can't; he lacks discipline and humility

3:43 for mile.

1600*

You're right 3:49 mile. Most people can't even do that and Hicehm El Guerrouj just went for a 55 second lap after it.

@@ahmrou82 He means the time he took for covering the mile in this race. But you're right he has the mile record at 3:43.

Bring your proofs or shut your mouth.

+Jamison Roberts you can eat 1 ton of EPO but You will never win

I cannot smell anything but pure talent

How can you say that? Do you have any proof? Runners who trained with El G could only run 1-3 laps with the same pace and then others came to make pace during his training. I am a runner I know it's 95% talent.

I'd say that's very good for your age. That's running at 4:15 mintes/ km or 6:48 minutes/ mile. And for a girl your age that pace is pretty good for a mile itself much less a 2000m. So good job and keep running!

It's my time for 3000m but it's good

the record in South America is 5:03, so you're very good m8

+TheJrindo I wanna break their records

Z Knight adam well participate in events localy, if you succeed, they'ill call you for international events. you'll get very rih if you're good

You guys actually believed a 16yo ran a sub-5 2000M?!

+ahmrou82 That makes no sense-so because i cant run a wr i'm not allow to know someone is cheating lmao...There is also a saying he who has heard first hand proof from other wrld class athletes and isn't a nationalistic racist can see clearly. And you can put Viren there too.
