Mekonnen just became the fifth fastest indoor 1500 runner of all-time. Pretty impressive performance. Beat Choge. Crushed Lagat and Willis, who never were in the race.
Only people to have run faster are El G, Geb, Laban Rotich and Daniel K. Komen. Just joined some important company.
I say Mekonnen is going sub 3:30 this year, even though his outdoor best only is 3:32.18. He has proven that he can compete in a championship race (2008 Indoor gold, 2009 World Champs silver), and is finally running some great times.
