Jakob Ingebrigtsen destroying the world's elite - The images caused a stir

Jakob Ingebrigtsen destroying the world’s elite – The images caused a stir

Posted On: June 21, 2023

With a time of 3.27.95, he improved his personal record by 37 hundredths. That race sixth fastest 1500 meters in historyand now some believe that Hicham El Guerrouj’s world record at 3.26.00 may be dropping soon.

On Wednesday, Dagbladet asked Ingebrigtsen which world record he thought had the best chance of being taken.

– At 5,000 meters. That’s where I’m best. But I will prioritize the 1500 meters first and chase the record there. I can do longer distances when I get older.

Ingebrigtsen cheered uncontrollably after the win. Check out the photos here:

Jakob Ingebrigtsen was more cheered than usual after his show of force at Thursday night’s Bislett Games. When Dagbladet asked him after his 1,500 meters feat what was behind the excitement and emotions around him, he replied:

– It’s hard to describe unless you’re there yourself and in the middle of it. To do well at the Bislett Games when it matters most is cool, Jakob Ingebrigtsen told Dagbladet.

– I’m very happy to run a good race in Bislett. Apart from the World Cup and the Olympics, it’s at the Bislett Games that I think it’s best to do well.

– Yes, how fast I have to run where I want. At the same time, doing it in training is somewhat different than in competition. You have to get it out, says the running phenom from Sandnes and emphasizes how good it is to get it out right at home, in front of so many friends and family and other Norwegians.

Jason Henderson – a writer at Athletic Weekly – noticed that Ingebrigtsen was cheering more than usual after Bislett’s record run.

– It meant a lot to Jakob, who clenched his fists in celebration. Mo Katir gave him a good fight but he sent the Norwegian off the track in the final 120 meters, Henderson wrote on Twitter.

– The coolest thing about racing is seeing Ingebrigtsen so happy to win. He raised his fists and celebrated in a way we’ve never seen before, he wrote website.

The 1500 meters was the first long distance race where a total of eight people were under 3.30.00 in the same race. Narve Gilje Nordås – coached by Gjert Ingebrigtsen – had a personal record of 32/3/39 last week. At Bislett he ran in a time of 3.29.47.

This means he is now the second fastest Norwegian of all time at 1500 meters

– It’s so unreal, who would have thought? The low is at 3.31, possibly on a good day. But not below 3.30, Gilje Nordås told Dagbladet.

The Sandnes runners have been under Gjert’s wing for a long time.

– He means everything, obviously. Clear. I wouldn’t be running 3.29 without Gjert, both in terms of the training plan he came up with, but at least what he told me, said
