Ingebritson will be still in his prime in 2028 so he will go for the trifecta in the 1500m. If he pulls it off, no other 1500m runner, past or future, will be worthy.
In 2028 he will be 3 years retired, with 2 children. 15 years of professional training is enough and he did start with 7.
I already doubt that he will still be active and go for gold over 5000m in Paris 2024.
Got a pretty good feel for it, as I already predicted Jakobs gold, Kerrs medal, Centro crapping out and Hocker being the best American in Tokyo. And also Kessler not making it to the olympics.
How do you know all this? Is Jakob your drinking buddy? I don't recall a mens 1500 Gold Medal winner ever switching to the 5000 for the next Olympics.
What exactly does professional training mean and especially for a 13-year old? He wouldn't have training with his brothers at that age.

Cole Hocker would’ve beaten him last summer if he wasn’t coming off of winning ncaas. Hocker had a much harder season having to peak for nationals then turn around for the trials and then the games. Hocker beats Jacob 9 Times out of 1 any distance
Don't forget he got covid if you believe the genius.
I just read this entire thread from start to finish and now I have covid19 and have to self isolate for ten days
THANKS A LOT GUYS

So true! Jakob ran 3:31 indoor and only took it down to 3:28 (hardly beating his old PR) by the end of the season. Hocker went into the Olympics a 3:35 guy and left a 3:31 guy. He absolutely would've run 3:27 or better in the Olympics if he hadn't had to peak for indoor NCAAs, outdoor NCAAs, trials, and the Olympics.
Holy Cow, Peach Pit you are a clown. A 3:27 or better? Only 5 people in the history of the world have run a 3:27 or faster. You can't possibly be this dense.
The level of delusion and partisanship on this board is quite astonishing. Go be your own heroes.

I actually don't take for granted that Jakob would have won NCAA XC. I don't think a miler has won for as long as I've been following -- German Fernandez got top 10 IIRC the same year he won outdoor NCAA 1500 (but he also set the U20 5K record later that summer). I hypothesize that the NCAA XC race is more competitive than the European champs.
Having said that, his 12:48 5K suggests that he could probably do a 1500/5K double at both indoors and outdoors and win handily.
Right. Let's see. He'd won various European junior cross country titles in 2016, 2017, 2018 and 2019 ... breaks the Norwegian NR in his 10K road race debut (27:54 - also a European U20 best) and in runs an European Jr record in his first steeple run, and he's only a miler who'd probably not have been favored. OK. Got it.
He's got a looking glass that he stares into and the future flashes in front of his eyes. Isn't it obvious? Lol
I know the OP and he was trolling. Please delete this thread!
I remember leading up to the Olympics so many posters on here were saying Cole Hocker would only ever be a 3:35 guy at best and wouldn't make it past the heats.
Where is the magic improvement coming from Hocker to beat JI? He's only a few months younger so doesn't have age on his side? He is now in the drug testing cycle so that advantage has gone now? Not a chance he beats JI.
This is my biggest laugh today thanks for that !!
Theres lots of NCAA guys running 12:48 for 5k and winning olympic gold. HAHAHAHAHHAHA
Humorous attempt. Not believable at all. -5/10

Didn't he just win the European XC championships?
Silliest thing I ever heard unless competions in the US are at a higher level than the Olympics.

Seeing this years later after being top 20 in all events from 1500m-5000m just makes my tummy tickle
3:28.32 1500 (after rounds, likely can go 3:26 high right now)
3:46.46 Mile
4:50.01 2000m (Solo effort)
7:24.00 3000m (En route to Two Mile World record and even went sub-28 after this split)
7:54.10 Two Miles (GOATed)
12:48.45 5000m (Sit and Kick type race against a stacked field, likely in low 12:40s fitness)
Point is, when I was a High Schooler watching him I did not expect him to be this great. Thought he was gonna be a 3:29 1500 guy and burn out (Because it's rare for prodigies to ascend to greatness like he has 5-6 years later) Boy was I wrong......
1500m at W.C. will be a challenge for J Ingebrigtsen. Who will waste their talent helping J Ingebrigtsen the first 1000m? Hopefully no one.
I bet he would win everything from the 1500 - 10000 at NCAAs this year. Perhaps even the steeple
