Super run by Kaki - 1:43.09 - WL

[The Captain]

Kaki 1:43.09
Huge PR for Asbel Kiprop

[IFK_Vaxjo]

What a fighter he is...looked like Al Sahli and Kiprop was going to run him down at the homestraight. 1.43.09 is no joke!

[rumbleyoungmanrumble]

Kiprop 1:43.17!

[The Captain]

Kiprop could be untouchable at 1500 this year ...

[croflash]

In the first race :shock:

I guess we are in for another incredible season at this distance, on both sides.

[frontrunner]

Kiprop has the smoothest, coolest, most relaxed stride since Paul Ereng.

He is going to be hell to catch in the 1500.

Individual splits? On a ferry boat between Sverige and the Baltics... not a lot of time to look up.

And he was 6th in this year's Kenyan police XC championships - that was a full-length 12k race :shock:

50.4 first lap by pacemaker.

You may be right. His previous 800 PR was 1:44.71. Now he's at 1:43.17 and he still isn't 20 years old!
