Hicham El Guerrouj vs Bernard Lagat at the 2001 Ivo Van Damme Invitational

[@PickledHarrrington]

The pace is so absolutely cruel, I almost get sick to my stomach watching it. Great race!!!

[@highplainsharriers]

Hicham ducked no one. He ran against Komen, Haile, Bekele, Tergat, Ngeny. Beat all of them. Greatest Mid-d runner.

El guerrouj :o !! what a Human being ! Legend !

[@Mateofish01]

its crazy how close lagat stays behind him without getting clipped!

[@rrampaer]

One of the greatest races of all time. If lagat had pushed him stronger he would have beat the wr no doubt

[@cicirunner]

At 2:33, look at that person stepping onto the track!

[@hatimlaamri2132]

you re right.

".... and we really should be watching the men's 1500, not looking at the women's 800 results..." lol

[@EzzemAitChitachen]

the Second Best Record in History !! 3:26:12 , so El Guerrouj still the Best 1500 m Runner ...

[@soufianesamir743]

0:17 "Pretty straightforward". Yeah second place coming in at 3:26.34 sounds like an easy win to me.

lagat would have never been able to run these fast time with the help of setting the pace for him , that's why he never ran a fast time after elguerrouj retired
