[NDfan369]

[ralucagymnast]

Absolutely fantastic; this guy is not human:)

[elbsenk]

@GammonLogic "...a relative orgy for middle distance running"

[CodyUSAirmanATC]

Is that water they're running on?

[SGTxPuszka]

tergat is kenyan

[MarcCrassus]

medium speed is 26 Km/h

[zerubabel123]

In the quantum world of Haile G Selassie,the final lap means that you show up at two places one and the same time.

[runforestrun35]

Speed is 22.75 kilometers per hour !!!!!!!!!!!!

[yuosid]

@runforestrun35 It's hard to reach, even with a bike ...

[mitkoman]

yeah no doubt Ethiopions are so good at running -its in their blood,their ancestors are running away from the lions for centuries:)))))))

[FourSeasonRunner]

@mitkoman BS, I think it's because they train real hard.

[44william44]

@mitkoman learn how to spell moron

[mitkoman]

@44william44 dont use words you dont know the meaning of you dumbass bitch!keep on sucking dick you  lil fag!

[aynolem]

ethiopian runners always win!!!!!!!!!!!!1

[Flatoutrox]

i ran 41:28 for a week ago, and i'm just 5"5 1/2 and with 23.5 BMI. I wonder how fast i would run if i had my cardio and were about 6 foot and had around 20-21 BMI. But it's sick how they can run so superfast, it's over 20 km/h. It's like running 100 in 16 seconds, but they're doing it for about half an hour.

[mulleops]

I can run 10 km at 39 min. Its unbelievable that the proffs can do this 12 min faster!!!

[MegaNeoSoul]

He was an almighty of 10Kand 5k one of the very best i am proud of to be his county man

[fawad1990]

[edwardgreat]

[fawad1990]

[malevikan]

[YiftertheShifter1]

[japp111]

are all the guys running in a row there in the lead from ethiopia or kenya? :P

[YiftertheShifter1]

@japp111 Ethiopians.

[PhillipScottAustin7]

their training

[eohax1]

their leg movements are like friggen a wheels! how do they do that?

[abcasd1]

holy crap they run the first lap in 60s

[AnupamDoesUToob]

@abcasd1 Mate, they run every lap in the 60s. 25 laps at an average of 63s. It's shocking.

[abcasd1]

why the africans always win long dist events

[Winston408]

@abcasd1 well Haile had to run 10k to school and 10k back every day barefoot and at elevation. so perfect preperation really.

[aeroflying]

how many laps is the 10000 meters?

[jacobmcr858]

Twenty-five.

[bffs4eva1998]

25 laps

[DarkLordPorn]

Well it would be 6.2 miles 4 laps per mile so like 24.8 laps

[viperdude281]

1 lap is exactly 400m. 10000/400= exactly 25

[YiftertheShifter1]

Man, the 10000 meters is a very BRUTAL event. I would know, having run it a few times by myself; the pain really starts around the second lap, and gradually eats away at every bit of energy I have in my legs. By lap 10, I'm in trouble and end up running positive split (slower second half) by over a minute. I can't imagine what it takes from men like Gebreselassie to run even/ negative splits. It's unbelievable.

[Winston408]

It really is my lap times tend to be even to start then after the first mile slow by a second or 2 each lap.

[YiftertheShifter1]

The best way to run it is even-paced. I managed a 5-second negative split when setting my PB (39:21, over 13 minutes slower!)

[Winston408]

Yeah I know how you feel my 5k best is now 18:19 I feel so slow when I watch pro's 5k.

[GetBackJack123]

@Winston408 Yeah forreal, me too. And people I know (nonrunners) think my times are fast or worth recognition and its only 18:02., yeah right.

[Winston408]

haha same situation here man.

[SCI08]

Was???? He's still the marathon WR holder as of 08
