Never wanted to be famous, just wanted to win. Just brilliant

I like his patience and quiet determination. It is really nice to see the modesty as well.

Jakob doesn't call it modesty, but to be in close contact with reality. Jakob hates running but loves winning. Winning isn't everything, but the only thing. Only one person can win, but thousands dream about being the one. This makes it really hard - the hardest. This is the reality and he is fully aware of it. If you draw anything from this interview, draw this.

Excellent interview. Great interviewer. Jakob is not only extremely talented and focused, he is clearly also highly intelligent.

I will be rooting for you in Tokyo! Good luck Jakob, you are an inspiration.

I love that logic about his main goal. Fast runners should run fast and not fall into tactical races like what Centrowitz does and it is exactly what happened in Tokyo 1500m.

Very good interview. Being from Norway we have a show called team Ingebrigsten, that has documented the last 4 years of their lifes definetly worth the watch

Jakob is amazing. Absolutely love his entire family!! So much respect and excitement when he runs!

Greatest interviewer ....great positive expressions...had fun!!

Love this interview. Since he's become olympic champ and broken 1500 European record again, won bowerman mile and 3000 in 7:33. He is all about the winning. So fun to watch.

The first Olympic medal was the start of the really start of a a career with several world records ahead. He is already the world's best all - round runner with being the only one in the world with times such as 3.30 in the 1500 meters, under 7.30 in the 3000 meters and under 12.50 in the 5000 meters, and many other indoor and outdoor achievements that are unique, many world records as youth runners. if there is anyone who can point to better merits, then tell me! But it will be a little different from what many people think, because Jakob is actually a better long-distance runner, but he will still rule at 1500 meters for a few years, I would be extremely surprised if he sets world records at 1500 meters or a Mile run. But he is certainly first and foremost looking for world records of 3,000 meters, 5,000 meters and possibly 10,000 meters

Understanding what drives an athlete is an insight us fans rarely see. Thanks for an insightful interview of a once in a generation talent.

Great, great interview, amazing..........He will be known as the Greatest of All Time , the GOAT :)

Threshold training involves finding the maximum speed you can run without lactic acid building up to the point where you can no longer continue the pace. Doing this over time will increase your threshold pace as your body/muscles adapt to it. Thus also serves to increase your VO2 max, meaning the amount of oxygen your body can absorb process and burn.
