- Prior to medaling at Beijing 2008 and Rio 2016, Nick Willis was a star at the University of Michigan. Watch Willis race to a stellar 4:00.69 and a first-place finish in the men's mile at the 2005 NCAA indoor track and field championship. In 2022, Nick Willis is now well known for his streak - at 20 years - of breaking the 4-minute mile.

Nick Willis is a beast. Also crazy that these commentators are still commentating the NCAA track and field meets 15+ years later!
Nick Willis is stilling running sub 4 too!
Yeah and they still suck ass. Worst commentators ever. They get so many stats and runners wrong. We need British commentators
2 Olympic silvers in this field.
"IT LOOKS LIKE SOMEONE DROPPED A PIANO ON HIM" - Nasaly voice guy said this about Duane Solomon I think?

Insane that you didn't have to break-4 to get into the meet back in 2005. Kids these days are too damn fast. I blame tiktok.
I think they all had sub-4 prs. The times at the beginning were from the qualifying round
@@eliasbergman7961 @1:24 They said it took "better than 4:02 to make it into the meet" which would imply that 4:01 made it. It took "better than 4:05 to get into the final"
Yes but that's solely times for that indoor season. They may have all had sub 4 outdoor Prs or even run sub 4 in previous indoor seasons. Wouldn't surprise me but I didn't check anything.
@@axelarroyo3286 So my point stands
Kids these days are dope!
This would be like if Cole Hocker had come back to the NCAA this year.
Almost. Nick went 3:32 Cole went 3:31
Thanks for continuing to add these, its awesome and very appreciated
I love when they upload from the archives
A 4 min mile is just insane to me. I don’t think some people appreciate the athleticism is track and field or cross country. I was a wrestler for 4 years in high school. I did very well my first two seasons, but my junior year I was recruited to the cross country team and boy did that fall season get my ass in shape or what. I was so prepared for wrestling that winter and had my best season to that point then ran the long distance in track that spring. Great memories! As good as I was on the wrestling mat I was never able to get better than a 6 min mile in track though. In cross country, I started around 25 min on my first ever 5K run then got down to about 19 min by the end of season!
Didn’t know Steve Nash ran track
17 years later Willis is still dropping sub 4
Now it takes a sub 3:56.1 to get in
I think with scratches it was 3:56 high
I don't know who is running, without Nick Wills.
Lol you couldn’t even dream of making nationals being anywhere above a 3:57 now
Cooper Teare now has the NCAA mile record, it's crazy how much faster the world is getting, now it's guaranteed every year a few high-schoolers will go sub 4
Kind of looks like Hobbs Kessler.
His form looks a lot like Hobbs's too
Kind of trains with Hobbs Kessler.
@@matthewkelly6012 it’s that Ron Warhurst training, they always on them to make sure the elbows go back
I was thinking the exact thing
funny you mention it, willis helped coach hobbs!
1:25 “4:02 did not make it” like it’s a surprise.
If only they knew 200+ people would run that or faster in 2022.
My how times have changed
Great race though!
so funny they just have these videos and realized they should probably upload them only now
Iconic
that was the easiest looking 26 sec lap ever
Is that a young Nick Willis?
Looks the exact same 17 years ago lmao
Faster, I think it’s sub 3:56 or very low 3:56
Cameraman spent an awful long while panning underneath Said Ahmed...
Ridiculous. Willis at most was at 3.5 gear, while the rest were in 5th gear.
