Men 5000m Diamond League Paris 2012

WORLD LEADING TIME set in the Men's 5000m race at the Paris Diamond League - I have removed the cutaway footage to other events and roundups - some footage remains in order to preserve the flow of commentary.

1. LOL. That guy was a junior at the time??
2. Mo Farah said he would have won this race had he ran it , I believe him
3. SAD BUT WHITE GUYS CANT RUN LIKE THIS SCIENCE WILL FIGURE IT OUT  STEVE JONES IN THE 80s WAS THE ONLY WHITE GUY A WELSHMEN IN FACT THAT TOOK IT TO THE AFRICANS.
4. Where the white men lol
5. So i'm confused. How did they get such good times compared to the Olympians  that competed in 2012? they destroyed their times. I was assuming that the 'diamond league' is not as good as the Olympics. perhaps im wrong?
6. are they twins?
7. Uh no the last 100m was like 13.2
8. Gebremeskel's last 100 was in 11 mid. Amazing.
9. fenomenal
10. It's pronounced "Bay-KAY-lay" not "BECK-eh-lay"
11. the speed to hang with Farah and Rupp is the pace is slow, but their is a damn good chance he is the fittest guy in the race and I could see him cruising away with it if he puts the hammer down Bekele 08' style and crushes the last 1200m-mile.
12. Yea, I'd still say Mo Farah is the favorite, though a 54.6 last lap (shutting it down some last 20-30m) off of 12:45 pace is a pretty damn insane run. He looked relaxed the whole way and didn't even seem like he has put in a significant effort right after he finished. He may not (though there is a good chance he does) have
13. Huh? The Olympic 5000m final hasn't happened yet.
14. hi, I'm white and am not very thin, can I still be a good long distance runner?
15. MO FARAH IS THE MAN OF THE CENTURY MAY ALLAH KEEP SOMALI HERO
16. This was one of the fastest races: - 11 runners stayed under 13 minutes, 6 runners under 12:50 min - best time for 3rd - 13th places
17. Nike-Kenya vs. Adidas-Ethiopia
18. Gebrehiwot and Gebremeskel have improved just too fast for my imagination!
19. And yeah I still think that Rupp can do something in London with all my heart i'm in for him. I think that he should be more focus on 10000m, because this gay Gebremeskel looked crazy good at 12:46. Anyway good luck Galen.
20. I dont understand lots of things in this race, but the strangest thing is Gebrhiwet, ok nobody realy belives that he is just turn 18 because it is not posible that somebody so young run so fast but his progression is unbeliveble last year he was only fifth at world youth champions with pb 7:45 on 3k in this race in Paris his first 3k was faster then his pb on 3k and last 2k was even faster then the first one.
