Crazy how he runs so fast while leading races alone ... imagine how he’d do with good pacing and fast competition

[jamesongaertner]

Ok but shoutout Henrik who always seems to be just a few meters behind.

[wakimura]

Don’t we all wish we could run like him

[Daniel-nrdh]

you kinda forget hes a teenager when he races

[jessicakiss]

He's so patient in almost every run - only exception being the world champs finals but I guess an 18 year old is allowed to be nervous and slightly misjudge lmao we are in for a SHOW this next decade...

[lanagorgeous]

You are the only person in the world who called this back then with regard to his 5k potential. You were so right on, as today he is world champ at 5, 000m and I was also right back then about him running in the 12:40 range 😀

[itclientservices]

He could definitely run 12:50 if he had good pacing and were being pulled along by a faster runner.

Definitely one of my favorite channels on the platform

[animus]

I am 63 years old...was a good runner...these videos are amazing...thank you ...

[charlesthorndike]

I wish he would've run a mile, a 3000m, and a 5000m this season, before turning 20. He would probably have been the fastest teenage miler ever, and one in the top 5 in the 3000m and top 10 in the top 5 or 10 in the 5000m (teenage-class).

Edit: I might as well include the best teenage times ever in those distances:
1500m: 3:28.68 Jakob Ingebrigtsen (2020)
Mile: 3:48.50 Asbel Kiprop (2009)
3000m: 7:27.72 Eliud Kipchoge (2004)
5000m: 12:43.02 Selemon Barega (2018)

[khumokwezimashapa]

Kind of irrelevant, but I had dream where the 400m race had a pace maker.

[financialfrancisco]

I think he can definitely break the 13:00 mark, maybe even 12:55

[willrice]

“... on some random course in the middle of Norway...” I love it!😁👍🏻

[trancemaster]

If Jakob can run 3:25.9 in the 1500m, it will be the most impressive feat in middle distance history!

[lanagorgeous]

Last year he over raced and was almost burnt out by the time he got to worlds and then the year end injury. This year he is so fresh. I think he could run in the 12:40 to 12:47 range right now.

[ruberap]

Don't forget the Henrik had an almost identical time and splits!!!

[borotone]

I'm not going to guess times. I just have a similar feeling as I did when Seb Coe and Steve Ovett were trying to outdo one another. All Jakob needs is a nemesis of a similar age. If that happened, then it's Creed vs Balboa, but running. I will predict that he will break a world record before he turns 21.

All three of the Ingebrigtsen brothers are insane!🔥

I have basicly O interest in running sports. However theses videos are so well put together I can't help but to watch them.

[sojournern]

Ingebrigtsen family is pretty cool. Great to have brothers to push you.
