" Yes, impressive. Kiplimo ran 10000 at 27.26.68 when he was 15 and 3000 7.43.73 when 16. Jakob isn't close, right?"

I don´t only think that Jakob IngebriGtsen would have been close to Barega and Jacob Kiplimo in the 5000m.
If Jakob had been prepared for running yesterday (what he wasn´t; he first decided for the 1500m in the last minute) and had been in the same shape as i DL Monaco he would probably have won the 5000.
Barega and Kiplimo are some of the best young runners but I think Jakob is on a slightly higher level.
