Kenenisa Bekele....absolute legend, perhaps the greatest ever distance runner. The way he held off Kipchoge & Lagat was tremendous.
Love & respect from an Indian fan🙏🙏🙏
All the distance legends in one race! Amazing finish by bekele 💪
@@simosimosimosimosim how many titles in cross country for El Guerrouj ?? 🤣
@@Vivungisport He could be but i think he was insane work ethic
The world's greatest in the same race. That's a brilliant race by Bekele.
He's just done the Berlin marathon in two seconds off the WR.
Here it is: czcams.com/video/vL_5YYpLPig/video.html
I am crying crying and crying whenever I see Kenenisa.....................You are the historical man......You deserves a special dignity......My bro Kenenisa you are my hero......May the almighty keep you healthy....You played a crucial role to promote the name of Ethiopia.
You are right! Ethiopian Runners keep their country's name in the world headlines! Incredible! How few athletes can build a country's brand name and good will!
Kipchoge breaking the 2hr barrier today. Then watching him race a 5K with the world's best a decade earlier shows his versatility.
Bekele run 2.01,41 2 seconds shy from Kipchoge wr just couple of weeks ago. Bekele was also injured couple of years on and off. Let's see,but i rate Bekele number 1. Kipchoge 2,then comes old Haile The GOAT.
@@jonsinkkonen9393 how do you rate a person number 1 for having the second best world record and the person with the world record as two. That is just bias
@@eufrtoshBekele hold more and long time worldrecords than Eliud. With new shoe and in prime Bekele will break 2 hours Marathon easy.
Today bekele ran 2:01:41 in the marathon the 2nd fastest time in history 🔥
@@manueldelacruz4886 kipchoge is nolonger competing against anybody, he is competing with time, ineos 1.59
Any Kenyan who is watching after Eliud kipchoge break the record nd run under 2 hrs #no human is limited
That was so incredible.. Pacing the entire race and on top of that such an explosive energy to finish the final stretch... Bekele is a legend.
The greatest athlete ever Mr bekele
@@UnknownPerson-xg5hl ah well everyone has there own opinion i guess, do you any of you guys do any running at all just wondering
Those 4 gentlemen have made me love and appreciate long distance running even more.
I'm such a groupie fan currently. These boys really push the 'limit'
No wonder why Kenenisa Bekele is the legend. He beats 1500.00 sprinter at the finish line. Proud of him. He is the hero true model for hard work and determination! !
yea he beat a 1500 meter runner in a 5000 meter race. I wonder why...
The black people are the super race of athletics. In chess, no black people had ever won a world championship, or even having great grandmasters. They may have International Masters.
Imagine being in a race where the slowest time was still under 14 minutes just incredible talent.
Talent is a dangerous word, I don't like when people throw it around to be honest. These guys have worked hard their entire lives and have been running since and early age, this sport IS their life. So to just chalk everything up to talent is corny at best.
@@thejedioutcast804 I also heard long distance running takes the least talent and it's mostly training
When all these great runners were in their prime Bekele use to son each and everyone of them 🏃♂️🥇🇪🇹
When I miss Ethiopian athletes I am watching this race I love you always bekele
What’s crazy is that when you watch these guys run it looks like there jogging but then you realize there running like a 4:05 mile pace
Todd Hardnipples
That's the thing that I don't like about watching track from a camera. I didn't know how fast it all was untill I ran track myself.
4 minute miles are actually insane like how do they do it? train train train trainn train no stop, so amazing
Mo has never been able to run with the likes of these greats. But he is such a great championship runner when these guys aren’t there.
But mad respect to the greats: Bekele, Kipchoge, and Lagat ♥️
@@ccbgaming6994 No, Mo can beat Bekele, he the legend of the time. It is reality.
Imagine running a 13:55 5k, but coming last in a race
Hahaha, it's ridiculous bro. When I run 5 K in college athletics, I use 20 minutes and now, someone who run 13:55 is the last in the race. What a world!
yeah ,one of the toughest race ever in 5000m ,even for Kenenisa ,you can see how he triumphed at the end.
@@christopherukundo4883 It definitely is ridiculous. A 20 minute 5k is actually very respectable among the standards of us mortals, but for the elite athletes like these guys they run very fast speeds.
@@valar_dohaeris7387 I am from East Africa and in each race I participated in (2019-2020) here in University of Science and Technology of China, it was always ending with a respectable time of 20 minutes with some seconds. I like participating in college athletics and before I run, I always come here to observe some of the useful technics from the best of the best runners pictured here.
@@christopherukundo4883 Yeah its definitely useful, and to a certain degree mesmerizing to watch these guys. They're Technics are quite something. Well, good luck with your Uni studies mate and also on the track too!
Ethiopia & Ethiopians pray to God
God bless Ethiopia 🇪🇹 & Ethiopians.
Glory to God in the highest 🙏.
I take 36 to 40 minutes doing that distance. These guys are legends. Every single one of them. Respect.
200m to go, Kenenise Bekele kicks hard from the front,
Lagat is still there on the inside,
Kipchoge looks as though he hasn't got too much left,
Kipsiro of Uganda then Kurili,
Lagat the big threat, Kipsiro coming on the outside,
Mo Farah starting to disappear,
but here we are, the big battle for the title,
the defending champion Lagat,
1500m speed vs 10,000m strength, whose gonna win this?
Right to the line, Bekele's gonna get it, strength outlasts the speed,
Bekele is the double champion,
what a race from the two of them,
brilliant, brilliant brilliant!!
@@lt-tb4pc Lagat is a beast but their's levels to this long distant enduarance racing I put Lagat at world class one of the best long distant runner to run but Bekele is not human, he held that pace from the start sprinting, he may look like he was jogging because of aerial view but when the camera gets close he's actually sprinting the last 6000 meters or so, this is a special guy with a special talent.
@@johnstephanos1128 ya but bekele is really very fast hes world record is not even touched by someine till now lagat is good but bekele is god lvl 😂
ቀናኒሳ በቀለ the best of ehiopian runner
The man of Hardwork and Determenation Bekele the legend
Who would've known that Kipchoge would be the first person to run a sub 2 hour marathon 10 year later...
that is not official. london marathon could be official. it was simulated and no drug test. also those shoes were questionable. but that does not mean he cant do it again. with beckle vs kip and farah thrown inn. it gets as bad as it can be!
@@burr69 marathon professionals and fans do as it is one of the toughest under-taking as a human being! And to be world-class at anything deserves respect!
it is an incredible and serious undertaking where you put everything on-line. and you dont do right, it can be punitive on both body and mind. so it is a tough test, however you look at it. ultramaraton are high risk events and need medical clearance and your ack for risks involved.
so it is not a walk in the park.
king_has_no_cloths kul No one is talking about ultra marathons? What are you talking abouy
Bekele is amazing everywhere..
This was 10 Years ago? dang, they are still racing in 2019?
@@RobinLundqvist Of course. Its for someone who's been training since they were 16-18 years old
@@RobinLundqvist that's what I thought. But given, I ran XC, indoor track and outdoor track all 3 seasons, for all 4 years of my high school days. I stopped running and training intensively after HS. I graduated HS 2008. I was still able to run a 10k at 7:22min/mi pace. I didn't do much training. Besides 2 miles per week for 3 weeks prior to the race.
Bekele had been so dominant back then that no-one in this race would've thought that this would be the final championship of prime Bekele... If he comes to Tokyo and medals it would be a miracle
Bekele is so fantastic athlete..wow
@PG 40 EL guerrouj is a legend and we are not allowed to talk about a legend coz the legend always talks about it self..
World didn't talk about him a lot...but Kenenisa Bekele is the world running legend better than anyone.... with style, passion, and strength...
Look at Kenenisa ... he is my favorite long distance runner
Thank you so much for not listing the finishing places! I hate the channels that tell you the winner in the video title! It completely ruins it! So thanks again 😊👍
bekele the greatest of all time
This is what We Ethiopians expect from our great Legend Kenenisa Bekele " Thank you
KENENISA BEKELE...un as del atletismo....una inspiración para muchos jóvenes q quieren iniciarse en el fabuloso mundo del atletismo....soy un fans de este atleta...saludos desde Santa Cruz de la Sierra- Bolivia
Kipchoge got so good ...no one can mess with him currently....
Kipchoge and Bekele are the 2 beast distance runners of all time in my opinion.
@@evonrn2000 kipchoge is on top? with what his 3 world/olympic titles to Bekele's 9? not including the 11 straight that bekele won in cross country. recency bias at its finest
This race was a good race, just the class of quality runners is amazing. How many times will you see that? Not very often...
Bekele is one of my favorite distance runner. I noticed longer distances he’s good at holding his spot
Nice quality, thanks for uploading. Bekele being far from peak performance at this moment (you can see how he is struggling, and not as comfortable as other sub 13 races) nevertheless still winning strong!! greatest runner ever.
he did run a 26:46 10,000m race the week before so understandable he was tired in this 5,000m...but of course, still pulls out the win!
yup...Farah did the 26:49 10,000m before losing the 5,000m to Edris this last year and was an excuse on why he lost. Interesting that Bekele's 10,000m and 5,000m were both faster than Farahs...including the last 200m where Bekele did a 26.1
blindguardian1979 sub 4 final mile in the 5000 for Farah tho. Why must you debate who is better? They're both great and it was Farah's last track championship anyway
Red Goose aren’t you also comparing by saying Mo did a sub 4 last mile (which Bekele has also done plenty of times). Anyway, why? It’s fun to compare athletes and although I agree Farah is also great, I think he’s a step below Bekele in many ways
Kenyans are world Elite Running Champions of all time ,Respect !
A msomali kenya is here. Yap kenyan's athletees are something else kkkkkkkkkkkkk. East Africa Somalia, Ethiopia and Kenya are the back to back champions of long distance winners
@@felfalithagos4388 😂😂😂😂 hey dude, we were the champions of Africa back in 1980's. Look up for Abdi bile 1987 World champion
@@ahmedceyni9344 you were but now. And you were only 2 times . There are many east african better than somaliland. Do you know what you said. Ethi, kenya and Soma....
You can not Somalia compair with them.
There are also another east African countrys that better than yours.
But it is good to be proud of you. Otherwise look your level.
Amazing race, thanks for uploading!
I'm very thankful all member of your team who makes the historical moment of this type game. I'm very surprised to seen the moment inter national just like world Athletics. Thanks to all.
Bekele's breath is endless
The amazing Ethiopian, I can’t get enough of this video.
Bekele is the Man reigning champion.
We will never forget this moment! ❤️
KENENISA BEKELE THE GREATEST OF ALL TIME 👍
YESSSSS VIVA ETHIOPIA ❤
Bekele, the greatest of all time...
How many times I have seen this run? Bekele remembered always👏👏
The marathon record has been broken..Eliud Kipchoge 2019....1.59.40
They did everything possible to help him do it. However, anyone else would have failed no matter how much assistance.
Too bad he is micro dosing EPO.... It is not humanly possible to run sub two hours without doping and 26 people pacing you and allowing a draft.... People are gullible. Great feat but it is smoke and mirrors. Show me an athlete that allows doping controls all hours of the night 6-8 weeks before a major event and if they pass the controls I will believe the “new endurance records”. Otherwise stop plugging this stuff as a “new record”.
ce petit monsieur Bekele est une immense personne dans le monde de l'athlétisme ...dès le début il se poste devant, mais alors surtout il a des cuisses dessinées comme celle des cross-man et pourtant c'est déjà un monsieur qui promet avec l'endurance !
i can't stop to watch kenenisa bekeles every race ,i hope one day i will meet him and tell him how he was great ever for me!
2008 Kenenisa and 2018 Kipchoge were insane
So there's a Kenyan from the US, A kenyan from Uganda and a Kenyan from Qatar? WTF?
We be everywhere as soon as the word marathon is attached to any city
there are no Kenyans who represent Uganda. actually its Ugandans who go to run for Kenya. most of the names which start with CH are sebeis from kapchwora in Uganda
So you didn't know that the Ugandan Sabins are Kalenjins who were transferred from the Kenya Rift Valley by the Colonial government to create space for British farmers in 1927?
Sadly it's because the Kenyan government betrays the athletes and the have to go to countries that pay them well💓ni sisi tuchague leaders wa maana
“| wonder how many hours | have been watching Kenenisa Bekele running.... And every second has been pure joy.
Crazy to think that 10 years after this, bekele and Kipchoge do amazing in the marathon. Especially Kipchoge becoming the first person to go under 2 for the marathon.
I can say this at this point because its 2019 now. Kipchoge may be the greatest "marathon" runner of all time. BUT, Bekele is the greatest runner of all time!
I am really impressed with Mo Farah journey. He has been struggling between 2005 and 2011, then win it all in 2012 and 2013. True inspiration. Hard work really does pay off.
Big respects for our kipsiro from Uganda who finished 4th, I feel he has been the most displined and professional long distance in Uganda before cheptegei, his only FAULT is that he existed in an era of gods,. "bekele, kipchoge,lagat,mofarah...."
THIS MAN AMAZING HUMAN BEING. JUST LOOK AT THE RUNNERS THEY ARE REALLY SCARED THIS MAN I SWEAR EVERY ONE AFRAID OF BEKLE
Even the last place runner was under 14 mins like wtf that was a fast race
Strength outlasts speed keninise bekele what a humble champion. The greatest
The MIGHTY Mo Farah was no where to be found.
Love this video! I am a long distance runner😍
We prayed for Eliud Kipchoge to brake the 159,and God heard my prayers.we are very happy as kenyans
Great sir Eliud..
You have really made us proud..
We prayed for you..
God take your Glory for answering our prayer
Respect to Bekele , Mohammed Farah , Lagat and Eluid and all the distance runners infact... This is where true athletism shows, no drugs or ped enhacement works here. You have to tear your heart and soul in training..
Bekele is the great athlete of the world....
DANIEL KOMEN ran 2 miles in7:58 !!!!!!!!!!!!!! 3000 in7:20 !!!!!!!!!! Bekele could not get near these times but brother he was king of the 5000/10'000 metres !!!!!!!!! And cross country !!!!!!!! Definitely and for a while the MARATHON !!!!!!!!!!!
Hicham el guerrouj is the real greatest athlete of all time. Other names are inadmissible
En condiciones iguales, con la presión de un mundial, en pista, sin pacers, con control antidoping, en un recorrido medido, el mejor es... Bekele. les guste o no, el etiope es el mejor COMPETIDOR de largas distancias, tanto en pista como en cross y en asfalto, ahí está su palmarés. Y en el 5000 se ve quién es corredor más completo: fuerza, velocidad y resistencia
Complete dominance of the race, well done Bekele 🇪🇹❤️
Kenenisa bekele 💖 💖 💖 💖... The lagend, the greatest ❤
The most talented 5000m race ever!
Bekele forever.👊
Apart from Kenya I always salute my brothers from Ethiopia and Jamaica ...they real do well ...and salute to everyone who does this to make their country proud...it's not easy
Thank you continue
Eliud is still the best long distance runner ever in history no matter what!🇰🇪
Senesask galtoon In marathon (only marathon) Kipchoge is much better than Bekele. His best is 2:03:05 and Bekele's 2:03:03. Apart from that Kipchoge has won 8 of his 9 marathon runned and a 2nd place. I also think tjat Kipchoge with decent conditions can easily break the world record, not Bekele's case.
you dont watch distance if you really believe that lol. Kipchoge isnt even better than the 2nd greatest runner of all time in gebreselassie
Yun J That's what I'm saying, in overall Kipchoge is not better than Bekele or Gebre. But in marathon is crearly superior than them.
when it comes to the Marathon Kipchoge is way ahead of Bekele.

bekele is legend man.......am so prouud to be ethiopian
They run 13 minutes and video lasts 10 though we watch full race and runners introducing. Miracle
There are other sports filming at the same time, like jumping. I think they cut it out when they post it here. So that is why it is shorter.
I am Nuruddin. From India. I see this full video. & I like this finisher.
Amazing performance so beautiful, congratulations I salutes all of you specially the winners, watching from Greece ❤❤❤❤❤
Farah had no part in this race
T I armchair athletes. Let me know when you can run a sub 13min 5,000 metres, or when you win double gold at two Olympic Games
I like plain running more then any other sport
yeah but running is so hard
if you run properly (to your max pain limit) you are close to vomit or even pass away for few secs this is how I feel
sports like football etc are more fun
@@HA-no3jh if you build a solid aerobic base like these guys that gets better
thanku GOD
Amazing. The great names of long distance run at one place. Enjoyed!
Kipchoge has always looked mature for his age.
Yep. I can't believe he is 18 yo in this race. He looks in his 30s
@@fabiennefertiti3017 He's actually around 24 in this race. When the commentator said "only 18," he was referring to one of Kipchoge's races from 2003. But I agree, Kipchoge looks older than he appears
I think kenyan only get their birth cert after they can run 5miles..that explain the appearence looks older then the regiesteted age
Strength outlasts speed, viva Bekele
That white tall guy is really keeping up with the greats. I am impressed!
i like kipchoge but bekele i just a piece of art, shortest man by far and also the greatest by far.
It is not ''between the spead of fast man and the indurance of the distance mam'' it is the speed and indurance of the man ❤
what a beautiful stride they all have...seems like they're jogging but I would have to sprint almost max speed to keep that pace
it's because their max speed is a lot higher than yours. If you look at sprinters running distance paces it's even more pronounced
bekele the greatest ever
lionel lionel no !!!! Berkeley is king for 5000 10,000 metres and world records hicham is 1500 mile champ !!!!! Hicham won the 5000 in the 2004 Olympics very good!!!!!
mehdi karpov what is hichams best time for 3000 k 5000 k 10,000 ??? Daniel Komen is world record holder for 3k and Berkeley holds the others!!!!! Hicham could not get near these times,,, go check it out !!!!! The 1500 and mile 2000 metres belong to guerrouj !!!!!! They are both fantastic runners and still hold record holders !!!!! When all is said and done Kenya KENYA ETHIOPIA MAROCO all African!!!!!!! FANTASTIC!!!!!!!!
4 of the 5 best distance runners of all time in 1 race
Do you know Komen ? El Guerrouj ? Gebreselassie ? You can also speak about Aouita …
