Yared lost the Road Mile Race/WR to Elliot Giles, then beat Jakob in the Zurich DL 1500m race that Josh finished 5th in who then destroyed the Fifth Avenue Mile Record - weird season!
I mean that’s the way you make running exciting. Having one dominant champion from competition to competition usually gets boring. The only reason it wasn’t boring with Bolt was because of his natural star power, and because he was hitting historic times. Most track athletes are not as charismatic as he was. TLDR, track athletes are boring people, stuff like this makes it exciting.
Right, there are so many world 'elites' right now at the 1500m, that world records could happen regularly. This new bunch is running fast from the very beginning as opposed to running more slowly and trying to rely on the kick.
As with a few of the world records the current 1500 WR is shrouded in doubt regarding EPO. The fact it's been a record for so long and the holder improved his times by 5 seconds or more after being humiliated by Morceli, means that very few people outside Morocco believe that he was a clean athlete!!!
@@robford3211Kerr has been mopping the floor over Jakob the past couple of years when they go h2h. Jakob cracks under pressure when facing Kerr by and large, with minor exceptions.
@@robford3211 whoa whoa whoa! Let’s not go there. I love them both tbh. Kerr is the better competitor but Jakob is the better runner. Jakob’s best events will be the 3000 and 5000. I just wish he grabs the wr for 1500 and mile so he can finally focus on the longer distances.
@@Nextman916 couldnt be mroe wrong, jakob hasnt beaten him everytime they faced besides the olympics which he made mistakes he acknowleged and the other time due to sickness, jakob is far and away better, and it has been in less than a year span that he ahs been beaten, you are obviously short sighted, havent been watching the sport for long, or just stupid, all athletes have dips, and those "minor exceptions" are the vast majority they have faced in championship or olympic races. the real "minority exceptions" but your obviously are kerr winning, youre likely stupid as biased as you have this view hopefully you can look past the span of the last year and do some real research.

Not a big fan of him. Blaming the running industry for his lack of marketing of himself for not getting a sponsorship until this year is ridiculous. I ran 16’30 and 77’37 (5k, half) and somehow I was able to get free shoes, apparel, nutrition, and travel stipends from multiple brands. It’s not up to the brands to find you, you have to either hire an agent or do it yourself 😂
For it not being a WR, based on the criteria for other road races the problem for this course is the elevation drop from start to finish, which is over the 1m drop per 1km that is allowed. And then the other issue is that the start and finish are not within half the distance of the race from eachother based on a straight path between them.
I’m thinking that Josh Kerr had some time off after the Olympics and had a few too many beers and kebabs then I think he got back into the game as he said he had about three weeks of altitude training before diamond league Zurich. He ran slow in Zurich so I’m guessing during his three weeks of training he was just getting mileage in and not really any speed tuning up work and then he goes and runs this crazy time, yes I know there was a bit of downhill and tailwind. I’m guessing we saw a similar thing with nuguse where he ran not that quick at the road mile he did a few weeks ago but then he went and won the 1500m diamond league. I’m guessing with him he didn’t properly taper and get the right speed work in until Zurich. It just goes to show that a good taper with the intense speed work is very important but it doesn’t take up much of the athletes training. They’re doing higher mileage and less intensity most of the time. Seems like the tapering and specific repetition workouts are like the cherry on top and the decorations. They don’t take much time and you do them at the end of the production but they’re essential for the final product and can be tricky to perfect.
@@TheSteinbitthe’s had more than 1 good race this year. indoor 2 mile world record of 8:00, 3,000m gold at indoor worlds, a 3:45 mile in Eugene, silver in the olympic final with a 3:27, and a 3:44 in this race obliterating everyone else. I think this is probably his best year yet
@@michaeldeierhoi4096 The decline comes after a pretty steep incline so there's positives and negatives in the course. Either way it was an excellent performance for his last race of the year - hopefully he can stay injury-free for next year.
He means that the scale on the X and Y axes are not equal. Otherwise, at 5280 feet in a mile the X axis would be almost 200 time longer that the Y axis and I would need a much bigger iPhone to read it. The steepness of the up and downs is therefore dramatically exaggerated. Hope that makes sense 👍🏻
I don’t know how no one is explaining this, IT IS NOT THE DOWNHILL THAT MAKES THIS COURSE NOT RECORD ELIGIBLE 😂 the course is point to point. to be eligible the start and finish can’t be more than half the total race distance apart. So for a mile race, the start and finish must be within a half mile of each other. Net downhill is one of the reasons for that rule, but it is not THE reason this course isn’t eligible. How is no one in running media explaining this properly???? 😅
"And was really able to challenge the world's best." He beat Ingebritsen in the World Champs and got an Olympic silver! He's already one of the world's best, no? Or are you talking about road racing?
An enjoyable race but between the strong tailwind, the halfway incentive and a field which doesnt hold a candle to Zurich, let alone the Olympics, it’s not clear how Kerr’s performance can be said to rival the best performances of 2024. Does anybody really think Kerr’s performance here really compares to, say Jakob’s 3k world record?
Nuguse and Ingebrigtsen would have smashed Kerr in this race. Unfortunatly they decided to run the Diamond League final instead of this big local race.
Whilst ingebritsen is the number 1, it's only just. Multiple athletes such as Kerr, nugusse, Hocker, Wightman can beat him in races and he's definitely strongest when he has a pacer rather than a 'genuine tactical race'. Kerr has the tactics and ability to claim gold at next Olympics. At the moment he is best placed to beat ingebritsen and the 1500m, mile, 2 mile, 3000m and 5000m are all really competitive at the moment which is great. The rivalries are all drawing attention and I believe a new middle distance league with 1500m to 10000m distances needs setting up with massive sponsorship and better TV coverage.
In the post-race interview Josh said he doesn't really get excited by going for fast times just for the hell of it - racing opponents, as in the Worlds & Olympics, is what excites him. If he stays injury-free over the winter he'll be tough to beat next season.
What happened to Kerr in the last diamond league? Was he saving himself for this? Was it just not his day in Zurich? Understanding this helps build an understanding of an athlete’s abilities. It’s a lot less interesting when you have no clue if an athlete will perform well or just won’t one day for an unknown reason
He ran a faster mile on the road where you are not allowed to wear spikes than he did on a track where you ARE allowed to wear spikes. (I mean, you CAN legally wear spikes, but do you really want to damage your spikes and spend money on extras?) He's only a second behind the mile world record, absolutely incredible. I think he can run faster than that on the track with more training as well. Also, running your 800m pr after running a 2 flat 800 is absolutely nuts, I know for SURE that if I ran a 2:30 800, if I ran an 800 of 2:12, I'm NOT throwing down a 2:12 after a 2:30 first 800.
Kerr should try and run 3'42" in a true track race. If he does not then it is meaningless. He needs to break a real world record outdoor which everybody cares.
That would place him 5th all time in the mile on the track. Something seems a little off here, running that slow to begin and nearly breaking the mile world record is impossible.
Second half is downhill, plus Kerr mentioned that there was a big tailwind. Because it is a linear course, the tailwind would give a sizeable advantage over a span of 800 meters
I believe if it is true that Kerr went crazy it is not safe to allow him to continue to compete in public. If he is taking medication for this condition is it violating the doping restrictions? It may be the reason for him running faster than he ever has before. If it is truly "unbelievable" that he could sprint so fast downhill the authorities should consider the possibility he is getting a "boost" from his psych meds.
Once again I will ask you to please try and describe a great sporting achievement with words other than ‘crazy’ or ‘insane’. We have better attention spans than that and these words that you are using are juvenile and awful. It makes me cringe to see someone that cannot think of alternative and more intelligent, interesting and respectful words. We are not all Americans who copy all the same common and inaccurate words from the internet!! Surely you learnt other words in your so called high education system!!
You clearly have done no research, it's not exactly that simple. The course has a hill in the middle. It's not entirely downhill, and the tailwind was unmeasurable seeing as it's an entire mile? Like? Why even say anything when you know nothing at all.

Calling this his greatest race is crazy, a downhill road race. There's a big reason he lost last week and was beaten by a 19 year old and did not run the Diamond League final and go for a world record there.
Kerr said in the after race interview that he finds it difficult to stay motivated to run at a high level every race. I understood that without Kerr having to explain himself. It's common sense. I don't know what you were going on about.

1:44 800m split is absurd that’s only about 4 seconds slower than the 800m world record after having ran another 800m before

It can't be to scale because you need something in the middle to balance both sides 🦧⚖️🫡
I don’t know who I’m rooting for Josh Kerr or Jakob lmao
Any thoughts on Duplantis vs Warholm?
Jakob is waiting....
Yikes!! Super fast closing 800m.
Downhill and tail wind on a straight road. Not sure how legitimate this time really is. However, great 800m finish in any circumstance.
Slight downhill with a tail wind will do the 1:44 second half.
was there tailwind?
Should make video on jakob at copenhagen half
The 1500m WR is on borrowed time now it seems.
whenever "elevation change" is mentioned, it is "downhill"!
Overall definitely, but there is still a reasonable kick up before half way, which would slow most runners and affect their rhythm.
Overall, yes. But not that much. Good hill in the middle. Still, a 1:45 at the end is unreal, tailwind or not.
