Haile gave up the chase literally 😂😂😂....great race

Absolute gem Daniel komen

If you look at what happened to Daniel Komen at the beginning of this race, I think it can legitimately be claimed that he would have broken the 3:43 mile if he had been running in a world record attempt at the mile this day with pacers. He lost at least 4 seconds in the first 200 meters having to put the brakes on, veer far out to the right at a 90 degree angle to the direction the leaders were running in all the way out into lane 4 on the first turn and then sprint like a madman loading up on lactic acid in the first 200 meters to catch back up to the leaders, the most inefficient way to run a mile. After running all that extra distance, he came through the half mile in 1:52.6 which means he would have run a 1:48.6 first half mile and then still was able to run the final half in 1:53.8. If you add up all the extra distance he covered and the jogging pace he ran the first portion of it at in order to wade out through the crowd into lane 4, there's almost no question in my mind that he could have broken 3:43 for the mile on this day. He was literally throwing on the brakes at one point while the leaders were sprinting away from him as he tried to get out into the clear. It's one of the most incredible performances in track and field history in my mind, which few seem to fully appreciate.

le grand duel entre Hicham et Komen ..................quelle victoire de Hicham....se sont deux légendes du sport mondial.

Also, I forgot to mention before that those two records (3000 meters in 7:20 and 2 miles in 7:58) will never be broken.

Auslaufmodell KIRCHE... Wie sehr ist dieser Mann mit dem Teufel verheiratet ? Selbst die Pforten der Hölle können die von JESUS eingesetzte Kirche nicht überwältigen, heisst es in der Schrift. Hier ist also nachweislich als Erstes ein Grössenwahnsinniger FALSCHER PROFET am Werk. Falsche Profeten sind die Lieblinge des Teufels. Das gehört heute bereits zur Allgemeinbildung. Nur Jesus Christus allein kann einen Menschen, der so versklavt (gebunden) ist, aus dieser todbringenden Verbindung wieder befreien. Das sollte man nicht vergessen, aber zur SEELENRETTUNG auch weitergeben. .

KOMEN ran 4minutes for the mile in this race,,NOTHING TO HIM!!!!!!!!

He went through 3k in 7:37 He could have ran sub 12:37 in this race for sure. The pacing wasn't accurate

Graham Hood of Burlington, Ontario, Canada!

It was criminal not giving Daniel Women a special pass to the 1996 Olympics.

Daniel Komen the man the myth the legend his records still stand.

Dang Danny Komen vs Hicham El GOAT in 1.500m and MIle and Komen against Gebresalassie in everything 5.000m crazy time for distance running

Охренительный скилл, тут сотня тысяч просмотров и выше должно быть. Ну и отдельный респект за аватарку NFS High Stakes

Insane

Komen's last lap was only around 59s and he attacked with 150 to go - he was capable of shattering WR if he went earlier and he was certainly capable... I mean - who ever outkicked Geb in his prime

The 90s was the most competitive time in the sport of running.

MIK MIK

One of the greatest athletes in the planet.

KOMEN ....A SILENT LEGEND !!! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

watching in 2020

Interesting to watch him from the front. When they land, his feet actually seem to cross the midline of his body, so that he seems to be running on a tightrope. That's something we're always advised not to do. In my experience, though, running like that actually causes you to land closer to the 4th and 5th metatarsals, which seems to provide greater elastic return from the muscles and fascia of the feet (i.e, better bounce off the feet). I can't recall seeing any world-class runners who run splay-footed. They're either neutral, like Komen, or toed-in. Maybe that's why.

The great of all time

Incredible for a 21 year old ! Sadly he lost his motivation and dedication when he had earned enough money. Imagine if he'd stayed dedicated for 4-5 more years, he would have broken the 12.30 barrier for 5.000m or at least have been very close. Komen never became the greatest middle/long distance runner of all time, but he was the greatest talent and had the greatest potential ever.

An extremely special human being.

Best Mile Race ever!

This guy wasn't gifted with a great kick like Bekele and Haile but he ran like a beast from the front and set a unbelievable pace and just kept on going and going.

I actually had the opportunity to meet Komen last summer it was so cool

Seeing Asbel Kiprop running before his EPO story came into the press haunted me as to how their running form was so similar. What I don't understand is that though Kiprop is 190 cm and actually a giant, Daniel Komen was only 170 and still looked so damn tall running.

You do not often see a grimace on Hailes face, that's an indication of just how quickly both he an Komen were running. On this occasion, Komen got the better of him, and so close to the WR, that's how fast the race was.

Тысячи российских людей сдают 3000м на службу. Самая ходовая дистанция. Спецназ ФСБ Альфа 10.30 всего то. )

But why was Bob Kenedy the talk here when he came 6th?

Komen never realised how close he was to the world record. Had he known , he would have pushed for it. Morcelli had just won gold in the 96 Olympics, and was still in good form.

amazing technique. wow.

Daniel Komen. Shooting star. Never to be forgotten.

Daniel Komen is STILL the only human to have run under 8minutes for two miles, clocking 7-58. No other athlete of any era has gone under 8minutes for 2miles

Komen’s 7:20min 3000m world record is mind boggling!

ELEGANCE in its purest form.

Today I ran 5000m backwards on one leg in 0.0000002 seconds.

นี่เขาเหนื่อยหรือยัง เข้าเส้นยังเฉย

สุดยอด ไร้เทียมทาน

Daniel Komen It's Legend

Отстань уже от кампуса,сколько можно уже!!!))Отличная попытка...Грац!

Good drive mu friend))

He was the only athlete I've ever seen who was *capable* of 12:30 for 5,000m. This run proved it. His pace was metronomic, and this run made him the first man under 12:40. His 3,000m and 2 mile records will stand for a hundred years. Unfortunately, he got cocky, and threw his discipline out of the window, ruining his career. Nevertheless, while he was at the top, he burned extraordinarily bright (1995 - 1998). Probably the most talented distance runner ever.

Dreadful partisan directing by the american TV company and commentators. They were more focussed on Kennedy, finishing nowhere, than on Komen winning!

King Komen !!!!!!¡!!!!!!

Great run, great era, and also the era of EPO. Hard to believe anything in the last 30 years.

if his peak lasted he would be the goat athlete
