  • In honor of Kipchoge beating Bekele in the 2018 London Marathon, I thought it would be only fitting to upload a video of the 2 icons of the sport throwing down on the track from 2008. In this video, Kenenisa Bekele throws down an epic last 400 meters in 53 seconds to set a new Olympic Record and bring home the gold for Ethiopia. Kipchoge, a very talented runner, had a decent last 400 meters, but he was no match for Bekele on the day.
    Enjoy

      not really....this was his 5th world championship/Olympics (2003, 2004, 2005, 2007 and 2008). Yes, he started young in 2003 but he was 24 which isn't super young for Track standards. Bekele was 26 so not much difference between the two in age

    • @blindguardian1979

      not even close....I'd agree Kipchoge is the greatest marathoner but Bekele was so much better than him on the track and x-country and is only 2 seconds off his marathon WR (not consistent like Kipchoge as well in the marathon). BUT Bekele is still 16-10 in head to head races. 3 Olympic golds (vs 1 Kipchoge), 5 world champion golds (vs 1 Kipchoge), 11 x-country golds (vs. 0 Kipchoge). WRs at 5,000m (9 seconds faster than Kipchoge's PR) and 10,000m (30 seconds faster than Kipchoge's PR) and faster in the 1,500m and 3,000m. Also funny you make this claim on a video that shows Bekele leading 9 of the 12 laps of an Olympic 5,000m final and absolutely blowing the doors off Kipchoge on the last lap. How is Kipchoge the all-round GOAT again???

Yes, Kipchoge is the best and most consistent marathon runner but Bekele absolutely dominated him in all other discplines (track and x-country). And even if he is not consistent in the marathon, Bekele is only 2 seconds away from Kipchoge's WR (2:01:39 vs. 2:01:41). So again, tell me how Kipchoge is the all-round GOAT??
