What a fantastic interview. I'm so impressed at the poise/grace/integrity of this young man. I'm an American, but now a Josh Kerr fan too. Congratulations!
With all due respect to Kerr, who is a great athlete, he's not gonna get another chance at taking home olympic gold. He'll be almost 31 at the 2028 olympics. Hocker is four years younger and Ingebrigtsen is three years younger. Kerr's focus now should be world championships
I hope to see him win gold in 4 years. He is a very gracious and kind person so it is easy to say that. The stadium will be their when you get their Josh. Thank you.
I was pulling for Josh , but a few of my countrymen in the top 5 and 1 winning is a nice consolation prize. That shot of his rooters back home stunned when Hocker passed him is gut wrenching.

@3:05 Interviewer: Just one question about Ingebrigtsen: A breakout of humility from the man about you, can you believe it? Josh: We're all so proud of him. 🤣🤣🤣
The interviewer trying so hard to get Josh to badmouth Jakob but Josh is not having it, including the post race interview. But to be fair, Jakob won Gold before which is way more significant and Josh didn't, Jakob would rather take that 1 gold medal than 5 silvers, everyone would. Silver is a medal that gets you sleepless nights thinking about how close Gold is. His target is just Jakob but Cole Hocker stole the limelight when he's way too focus on one man.
The Sport Of Track and Field will grow more if the athletes had more exciting personalities. I’ve watched a lot of interviews of them lately and it seems like they’re either holding back what they really want to say or just plain boring to talk to. And you don’t have to be cocky or arrogant just be a little more entertaining. It works in other sports. Ijs 🤷🏽♂️
You can easily stay in another four more years with the money these athletes are gettin. People like sherry of Jamaica are proving that with good training the athlete can hang in for years.Where are all the illegal immigrants and that video at the end
Yeah ans still lost to the winner by only .60 of a second. After making 2 or 3 mistakes. I think if he would of paced himself. A little better. He would of won by 2 meters.
who cares he's still a olympic gold medallist. something Kerr will Never be. Ingebritsen is the star and face of the sport and will go down as an all time great. Kerr will not even be a footnote
Josh Kerr is the most well-spoken athlete I’ve heard in a long time.
you mean saltiest?
@@troycambokeep crying
Djokovic
@@presleyelisememorial Also, certainly.
Hocker, Yared, Kessler and Jakob will be there in 4 years too. It will be an interesting race.
Imagine how good Laros will be in 4 years…
@@thewalkingjoke3843most people don’t improve like 4 seconds. At a world class level.
kerr is 31. face facts his olympic gold dream is over
jacob won the war
@@troycambo Jakob will have to focus on the longer races, because he will never outkick those runners. Even when Kerr is 30.
@@troycambokerr is 26 , what do you mean ? Assuming you meant he’ll be 30/31 by the next Olympics? That’s still in his prime

UK is proud of Josh as he did a personal best - its all u can do. He will break OR to win in LA in 4 yrs
I doubt it because he is 26, one of the oldest in the finals already

he blew his one chance and it will haunt him for life hahah

good to dream i guess. but most people live in reality
What a humble competitor. Think his time will come. Just remember LA is quite hot in August 😉
You are right
nah that was his one and only chance and he blew it

That vid of the kids was so sad.

someone lives in the real world
El g won his first and only 1500m Olympic gold (along with the 5k gold) at 30 though. Mo also ran his 1500m PB at 33.
30 isn't that old.
People said the same about Shelly an Fraser price

Nice one josh 👍🇬🇧
Like the saying goes, 2nd is the first L
What I appreciate in the Olympics is there are no pacers.
No. Best pacer of the World: Jakob Ingebritsen.
Great interview 👍
Amazing ....no shame in that race
Still can't say anything nice about Jakob after he paced him to a national record.
He should thank Cheriyout to who drained himselves to close the gap jakob got during the race.
Great interview
Too much bragging!! Carma made him lose!!! Get till he gets older and new athlets will "hammer" him.

Bird and Magic think they were friends now
I will have to research the ages of gold medal 1500 runners. 29 or 30 must not be an optimal age i wouldn't be surprised if he moves to the 5000.
Josh Kerr 👌👌👌👌😍😍😍😍😍
Bro gotta worry about laros in the future
I was hoping the norvegian athlete win
He made the mistake to lead the race from the beginning
Yeah ans still lost to the winner by only .60 of a second. After making 2 or 3 mistakes. I think if he would of paced himself. A little better. He would of won by 2 meters.
yes he smashed it with that strategy three weeks earlier in Morocco, and had the juice to get a better time than this race but every day is different.
who cares he's still a olympic gold medallist. something Kerr will Never be.
Ingebritsen is the star and face of the sport and will go down as an all time great.
Kerr will not even be a footnote
@@trinidadrodriquez876that's why Jacob lost
He clearly underestimate the competition
He took the high route and wanted to win in style
Kerr just got smoked! Maybe train harder? Cole blew past him like he was standing still!
he had a handicap since jacob lives rent free in his head. the added weight made the diff
@@troycamboyour boy jakob looked like he was gonna cry, time to start respecting his competitors 😢
@@troycamboJakob didn't medal
