What an impressive man, 3:47 indoor mile, 7:23 3000, 12:38 5k, 26:31 10k, and now a 57:30 Half. These are all crazy achievements, either world record, within a few seconds of a world record, or a top 10 all time performance. The versatility he has across so many distances, and the decade long longevity is absolutely insane!
Happy to see Kejelcha get the spotlight. Such a phenomenal athlete with phenomenal range. And especially after his own federation screwed his 10000m at the Olympics.
Yomif Kejelcha also ran a 1'500m indoor when Samuel Tefera broke the indoor 1'500m world record before Jakob Ingebrigtsen and Yomif Kejelcha was just off the indoor world record of Hicham El Guerrouj finishing second behind Samuel Tefera.
Phenomenal performance from Kejelcha - I'd like to see how he fares in the marathon because some of these splits are unbelievable. Also great to see Mateiko coming in second, remember he paced the first 30k of each of Kiptum's marathon majors - glad he's still delivering after losing a close friend and training partner
Kejelcha's stride has always been thing of beauty like he's flying. Absolutely amazing his mile record is 12. fastest ever. But still 5min 30s faster half marathon than Ingebrigtsen
5:35 because the official 15k record was run during the Zevenheuvelenloop (Nijmegen), which is a really tough course. It literally means the "seven hills run". No wonder that 15k splits can be faster than that, especially considering that they can have a net downhill (if the last 6.1km has an uphill again so that the entire halfmarathon course is flat)
In fairness Kajelcha has been concistently near the top for years so it's great to see him run so well and break the record. His times from the 1500 up to half marathon are crazy.
I love how I was literally thinking about the half marathon world record yesterday wondering who and what will be the next time to set a new world record for it and then literally the next day it gets broken. I also find it interesting how I’m half French and my name is Etienne and in the top 10 finishers of this race theirs literally a French guy named Etienne in it. Truly remarkable
Dude chill with the hyperbolic titles, it was damn impressive essentially because his pacing was horrendous and he dropped them early but improving the wr but 1 second isn't "crazy", and also you use that type of hetoric for every single title so it almost didn't process this was actually a huge performance
Thanks Japan for. The greatest baseball player in history is in the World Series. Japan won the world baseball championship 🏆. Comment often. And bring friends with you. There is no reason Japan is not a world class running power with a unique running training science center Your current pin point landing on the moons has improved rocket science to the point that a Japanese astronaut may be the first person to run on Mars. And that is what running is all about. We need to know the ways the body reacts under stress down here to run up there. Thank you.❤
I've run in today. It was raining all way, just non stop. Puddles were all over plus headwind. Anyway, I enjoy the race and it has been my second time. The weather truly sucks
Anyone who's ever laced up running shoes wants to be able to do what Kejelcha just did - push yourself so deep into the pain zone and endure it longer than everyone else.
These sub-58 minutes clockings should make transition to Marathon easier one would think. Kipchoge, Bekele or Kiptum weren't even close to this time yet produced fast times over 26.2 miles.
@@gordonbenjamin3570The OG’s point is that a male journalist questioning Chepn’getich to her face when she broke the WR in Chicago was a misogynistic move.
It is almost completely flat, only a few metres of hight difference throughout the whole city... good temperature (not too cold, not too hot, not windy)... and track layout includes long straights
I don’t know the full HM record history but this is a small margin to beat the previous record. Ruth’s record run, whilst I hope is valid, is so much faster than the previous record which which on one had ever even come close to. It is right we check anomalies with the innocent until proven guilty approach but still with enough skepticism. I think her coach also had a suspected history in doping. People are right to at least question it.
Kiplimo needs to come and take back his world record. He had a bad pacing strategy when he ran his 57:31. Ngetich was impressive. Came very close. But unfortunately...
More than 80 Kenyans on the world athletics banned doping list. Less than 10 Ethiopians. Both east African countries putting in the same elite performances. Doesn’t add up.
Apart from doping, in the last few years many bio hacks began to be applied to athletes, and that explains, in my opinion, the explosion of stratospheric times even from guys who have been competing for a long time...
TRP never sleeps I swear
😂😂😂
Personally I ain’t complaining, I never sleep either to watch his vids 😂
@@LeoRothwell-sh2wv lol
I'm really happy for him. Kejelcha usually pushes the pace from the beginning and gets outkicked by someone else. Now, that's his moment of glory.
💯. Happy for him from Kenya. 👏🏾👏🏾
Couldn’t agree more, he finally got his big result and it’s well deserved
I just ran the Nairobi half marathon today. I can’t believe how fast these runners times are. Crazy !
what time did you finish?
@@HerRevengeOnSeattle 1:43:06 finish time, net time 1:42:xx (cause it took him 15 sec to get past the start line, due to cue-ing)
Congratulations. In deed it was fast. I was marshaling the elite ladies 21km and even on a bike, that pace was high.
Nairobi Marathon was on 18th Sep. Today was Standard Chartered Marathon.
Congratulations to YOMIF KEJELCHA! It's your time to shine ✨️.

Thanks for another amazing video TRP ! This was gold ! Love your work always
Way to go Yomif! He has been knocking on the door for a while now. Breakthrough performance!
I wish I looked like that when I run! Looks so relaxed running at a pace beyond what I can sprint at
They don't even look tired.
Una locura los tiempos de estos atletas. En cuanto a Keyelcha salió a buscar esta carrera de principio a fin. Realmente espectacular.
I love that moment when they put the hammer down on the field. Wow!
kejelcha is crazy wit it
Yomif Kejelcha also ran a 1'500m indoor when Samuel Tefera broke the indoor 1'500m world record before Jakob Ingebrigtsen and Yomif Kejelcha was just off the indoor world record of Hicham El Guerrouj finishing second behind Samuel Tefera.

Letesenbet Gidey was incredible. Ngetich tried like heck to break the world half marathon record and just missed by 12 seconds.
3:55 Agnes Ngetich is on another level
That pace alone is ridiculous
I NEED Gidey to come back!!
We all need but info about her is non existent.
Wow! Watched his get thru at that time. So cool.
what a great year for running
7:46...slight typo in his 5000m time. 12.38 I assume. Great stuff again. Love this channel
It's his road 5k time, not his track 5000m time.those are always slower than their track times.
@@Kipchoge475 no chance?
@@colmsheahan6991 I'm not getting you
@@Kipchoge475 that's surely not his road PB. Jogging for him.

The world record was broken twice within one second; the difference between the three fastest runners in history is just two seconds!😬
Kejelcha is seemingly always a threat to break almost any distance running WR
so amazing for someone to do a HM in that time period, lets wait till someone does a sub 55 min HM
We should question Gidey’s half Marathon World Record. Let’s also question Kejelcha world record. I don’t believe they clean
0:56 good to see ed goddard out there
thought so that was him, what time did he finish?
@@Robzabest2562:04 according to his Strava
The amount of sugar these guys eat to stay that lean and push that fast is insane! They eat almost zero fat and protein to get that slim.
What do you mean sugar?

Woke up to this like. BRO

Must be a super good course
i like how he runs his first 5k split as fast as his 5k pr
Adios pro evo 1 is also the new world’s fastest half marathon shoe!
Let this be testament that WR aren’t meant to be broken by nearly 2 minutes!!! Ruth, your on the chopping block.
@total running production never disappoint on comments on this running sports (BIG comments on my opinion abbas adane hassane)
無冠の帝王だったヨミフ・ケジェルチャがついに世界記録！

Monster athletes
Funny at 8.18. Guy looks over his shoulder. "Is that a woman? No way a woman's going to beat me. Accelerate."
🙃
That guy may have been a pacer for Agnes.
@andrewmurphy2289 I believe it was one of her pacers checking back to see if she was still keeping up because she was starting to struggle.
He is doping
All these records being broken left right and centre, TRP can’t afford to take a break!
Anyone who's ever laced up running shoes wants to be able to do what Kejelcha just did - push yourself so deep into the pain zone and endure it longer than everyone else.
How much low could the half marathon record go? 56:30 sounds entirely possible by Jakob in several years
No way. Even breaking 57 is Out of reach for some years😊
Bruh!
Juice, juice and more juice😂
Even playing field
Imagine how much faster the men's records would be if they could have pacers like the women have
We are not too many years from having bipedal robots that can run at the right speed. We may know soon
You mean cyclists?
their 21k is faster than my first ever 5k run. lol
Whoever runs a mile a this speed is a very good runner
Must be the new magic sneakers, again. Plus bouncy socks, I guess))
These sub-58 minutes clockings should make transition to Marathon easier one would think. Kipchoge, Bekele or Kiptum weren't even close to this time yet produced fast times over 26.2 miles.
Bro Kiptum casually split 59min in marathon in second half, and you think he was not even close 😂
@@lowzyyy he didn't run sub 58 for half marathon and you missed the whole point
@@bilalhussain2526if he can run 59 minutes in a half marathon after running a half marathon in an hour, he can definitely break 58 in a half marathon
@@lytesknvince Definitely, he can, this isn't about Kiptum, it's about Kiplimo, Kejelcha stepping-up to the Marathon and do wonders
Having pacers is lame. So much easier to follow and not have to break the wind or set the pace.
Am waiting for Jacob's next half marathon 🥑🥑🥑🥑😅
Wow. If you told me Kejelcha would set a world record, I would expect it to be in a much shorter race (e.g. 1500m).
Imagine your world record getting broken by 1 second 💀
The 5k summary record is wrong on kejelcha. He is way faster than 13.38.95 in 5k
Yomif probably has the best Range of All Time
Valencia deserves to be a major in marathon too, i think they have a quicker course than Berlin or Chicago
Yomif please 👍🏼first 🥇,WR, Ethiopia ❤❤❤❤
How do you trust any results from runners from this part of the world at the moment with so many doping bans 🤷♂️
We all know they dopping but we enjoy WR anyway 😅
Wonder if someone will ask in his face whether he dopes.
He was training for this race so it was expected
@@gordonbenjamin3570The OG’s point is that a male journalist questioning Chepn’getich to her face when she broke the WR in Chicago was a misogynistic move.
I wish Kiplimo and Cheptegei were there
They are not in that great shape
What is it about the race that makes it the fastest? Does it have a negative altitude drop? Does anyone know?
It is almost completely flat, only a few metres of hight difference throughout the whole city... good temperature (not too cold, not too hot, not windy)... and track layout includes long straights
1:54😂
Jakob destroyed him recently 😂 When Jakob is done with the track the records will come.Jakob has a far bigger engine than Yomif.Well done yomif 😅
Damn he is tall
They live for run
Imagine those pacers thoughts as they got dropped at 5k. haha
Yomif Kejelcha
Born: August 1, 1997 (age 27 years), Ethiopia
Height: 1.86 m
Weight: 58 kg
he is starving to death
Awesome performance. Love to see a world record broken.
I haven't seen a single comment or post where they doubt doping.....and all.
But with Ruth .......hmmm😅
Did she break the WR by 1 sec as well?
I don’t know the full HM record history but this is a small margin to beat the previous record. Ruth’s record run, whilst I hope is valid, is so much faster than the previous record which which on one had ever even come close to. It is right we check anomalies with the innocent until proven guilty approach but still with enough skepticism.
I think her coach also had a suspected history in doping.
People are right to at least question it.
Kiplimo needs to come and take back his world record. He had a bad pacing strategy when he ran his 57:31.
Ngetich was impressive. Came very close. But unfortunately...
I guess we have to question this result. Right?
Exactly.
Do we question this record? Slick roads, wet shoes and clothes and still broke it?
I cant hold 400m at this speed 🤣
@4:35 - --- see you guys...............................
Kejelcha has more range than Jakob Ingebrigsten. Jakob had to pause his running at the half-marathon in Copenhagen.
Wouldn't make huge assumptions yet. Ingebrigtsen hadn't trained at all for the half so the result it wasn't a huge shock.
Ingebrotsen will never break marathon record. He is white and not from ethiopia
5000metres 12:38 correction
Its so funny to me how the runners pass through 15k and just think "oh cool, thats faster than the world record. Oh well, only 6k to go."
More than 80 Kenyans on the world athletics banned doping list. Less than 10 Ethiopians.
Both east African countries putting in the same elite performances.
Doesn’t add up.
Bon produits lol
Was Barega injuired?
Or did he DNF
Selemon Barega finished 6th in 58:57.
Check that 5000m PR it should be 12:38 not 13:38.
shoutouts to his chemist 👏
Seems legit…
Looked like she was paced by men. Is that allowed?
Men can also get paced by men😊
I’m sure this will get flamed but if women want to keep smashing women’s records, they shouldn’t be doing it with men pacers.
Apart from doping, in the last few years many bio hacks began to be applied to athletes, and that explains, in my opinion, the explosion of stratospheric times even from guys who have been competing for a long time...
Single greatest?
East africans have always been the best runners in the world, what a coincidence.
