Legend says 3rd place is still out there
Dude got abducted by aliens on the final lap. No one noticed.
didnt they have one more laP?
Dominic Gallagher And who are the legends you speak off??😒
you can see the spaceship fly over at 4:38

Imagine training so much and warming up so much before your race just to get eliminated the first lap
BUT on the final or some olympic games...
Then train harder so is not the first lap next year.
i think we saw that with the chinese guy
@@latinsizer , bruuuh.
Who would train for this run????
the same when u ar on 5km race and u the last one whats the diffrence ??
This would be a HIIT event at the Olympics!!
we need a 5k elimination round too!
BananaRolan it might be lethal
5k actually makes sense, there are so many damn athletes out there, eliminating some would work nicely
@@BananaRolan Marathon! 1 elim after each half mile?
That would be fun to watch.

Accurate
Luis Barrios is that a mile?
"none of us knew how the tactics were gonna play out"
*tactics played out exactly how anyone would expect
Yeah, I thought that was an incredibly stupid comment too.
Lmao
they have no fucking clue what they are talking about, as usual.

Usually they know exactly what they’re talking about. A lot of them are former athletes.
Lizi Moody Specter I don’t think having no idea matters I have no idea and the strategy used seems very basic
this is gonna make track a contact sport imma be throwing elbows
Track already can be a contact sport.
And I'm all for it. :)
lmfao imagine sprinting the 200m and stiff arming someone for 1st place
It already is
Lol I WAS throwing Elbows at my xc finals
2nd place guy lost too much energy turning his neck
Agree
i mean look around is fine, just not too much lol
John Lee yeah I thought so it really annoyed me
Exactly. He turned around way too much
Instead of worrying about getting taken over by the 3rd guy, he should make a sprint to try and get into the first spot to try and hold it on the straight away before the last curve, then make the other guy have to chase him down.
First 300 of lap: **Does normal pace**
Last 100 meters: **SPRINTS AT TOP SPEED**

This will show who does their interval work.
christansdad bs, this shows who does their long runs
Really Real Obviously you have never run in a competitive track meet beyond elementary school. If you had you would realize the importance of interval training for speed work and endurance. All milers do long runs. This particular event also calls for explosiveness and recovery that is often honed by doing interval training.
christansdad nah all that interval training does is burn out young athletes
Really Real You mean "all that interval work separates elite athletes from pretenders at an early age".
A 5k runner would have crushed an equally talented 800m runner in this concept. It’s really all about endurance. Everyone can run a 60sec lap
Can we get elimination 10k? Strats would get a lot more interesting; nobody has 25 kicks in them.
Kurgosh1 oh yeah they already have that it’s called hell
Made me lol nobody has 25 kicks...
That'd be interesting.

Imagine if they eliminated every 100m. That would be hell
Cameron Gray Oh gosh
Oh my goodness
Oh goodness me
Goodness me oh 😯
How the heck would you even pace yourself? I’m worried that the two or three leaders in the front pacing too fast would get out in second/third to last rounds and leave the most capable runners in last position. Very inefficient way of running and not healthy unless they all play defensively.
3rd place guy's strategy was to use all his energy making it to the last lap then take third.
Pretty smart too if you think about it
@@macroglossumstellatarum3068 Absolute brilliant use of his own limits honestly. I'm more impressed with him than the winner
100% tactical 3rd, he has read ahead and knows he can't beat the two at front but has a chance of going all out for third
He's a shorter distance runner.
He knew he had no chance against the top 2, so he used up everything he had to at least make the podium. Knowing your limits is important in track, this race played out how he wanted

This is a great concept that should be added but it could have complicated rules
I agree. Watching this I thought "would if two or more are razor thin passing the elimination line". Do they keep running until replay can validate? Love the idea though.
MIDNYTE GOLD yes just like that it would be the same as the elimination in the omnium (cycling) they continue after which the announcer tells them who is eliminated
EveryDay So, read that wrong... read it as "kick" instead of "lick" at first. I was thinking what the heck is wrong with that guy? Hah.
MIDNYTE GOLD FAT ( fully automatic timing) will take only a second or two to tell which lane number was in front/ back by the millisecond. An official could then quickly yell it out.
You're suggesting that will make the women run from you even faster than they do the rest of the time?

Cameron Lee you’re iq is below 79 if you think saying funner makes you dumb. Having correct grammar doesn’t make you smart.
When I ran track, I could not stand events that let people on the track like that during the race. When someone comes running at you cheering you on, you know they aren't going to touch you, but in the back of your head, you're thinking, okay is this dude going to run into me, and it completely fucks you up.
Should of just closed -lined them. 😏
Yeah, I’m a runner too, and I also hate that, because for some reason I can’t explain it slows you down.
I was looking for this comment. I'm actually so against events allowing people on the track like this. There is too much human error that can occur not to mention it simply being really distracting for the runners.
yeah, it's like wearing a hat while running
@@jamesmcgreevy5781
Sure, why not.
Pretty good 4x200m workout with 200m jog recovery in between they got in there.
Except they "jogged" as fast as they could so they don't fall behind and have to make up each 200
Ended up in a 4'09 mile. Pretty fast recoveries, uh?
They're jogging faster than most people can sprint
@@blastedpotato the one in the front "jogged" at 5:12 mile pace in the third one. Most likely slow enough for him to clear lactic acid, but definitely not just an easy jog
I would love to see a pro elimination 1500m, preferably with up and coming runners. That way they want to kick to stay in the race, but they also are young/fresh enough to want to win that badly.
I was a hammer thrower in college. I'd party with the XC team / LD runners. They'd run naked beer miles on occasion, and I participated, and did decently considering our different specializations. I wonder if there's a way to incorporate those aspects into an elimination mile?
It'd make it even better if they constructed a financial incentive system to winning a lap and the biggest pot to the ultimate winner. Then you'd have the loser eliminated at the end of each lap and mad scrambles at the front to win the lap.
@ Thomas Mahoney: they do that
That's basically what this is...these guys are up and coming pros/collegians.

@@cy8685Yes you are correct, I don't, that's precisely why I asked.
@@eliasbachner1898 The Olympics is about becoming the best you can be and giving your best performance - not doing an interval workout on the track.

Haha 😂
You must be really unfit...
Martin go run a 4 minute mile then you fucking pinnacle of fitness. Record it and post it
I run 5k in 19:54. So a mile in roughly 6:40. But I've never outright done a mile run and timed it. I reckon I could get close to 6 minutes. Besides, I was just joking, I know what he meant.
Martin Anything above 6 minutes is kind of sad for anyone who is actually committed enough to time themselves when they run and participate in races. If you run that slow you might as well be speed walking a mile.
That was fun to watch
Especially all the Asian countries being immediately eliminated
You're hot!

This was called "the devil takes the hindmost mile" when it was run at the indoor track meets held back in the 1960's and 1970's. A individual in a devil outfit would pluck the last place runner on the latter laps of an indoor mile. This was probably one of the most popular events in any indoor meet I ever saw. Promotion helps!!!
minolta7i haha but were missing an actual devil
Wow! Thanks for sharing this tidbit
Shine on you crazy Mormons
Imagine being such a legend you have your own camera named after you

Amusing to watch, but definitely looks like hell to run lol
Bolt Cam lol
Yeah, he deserves it ;)

Look at those strides! WOW!
This gave me so much anxiety seeing how close they were to each other at some points of the races.
When you are so good that you have a cam with your name, and in the same time it sounds like something that has a particular function : *BOLT CAM*
Well his runner won so it makes sense to show him. The kid was part of BOLT all stars.
Just sitting here eating a pop tart watching people run.
I was literally just eating a pop tart and there’s crumbs all over my sweatshirt
this is the coolest race I've ever seen. they're actually running the whole time.
They're really just trying to run away from each other 😂😂😂
Imagine looking back this much during a mile 😖
The elimination race is something I've loved watching in track cycling for years. It's part of the Omnium.
this is basically a fartlek
Pepe Glz this is a 200m fartlek, basically
No shit Sherlock 😂
Dendra7 oooo, sorry Dendra 😅
Fartlek means bro plxxz
A fartlek with thousands of people watching and something at stake
I can only imagine how much fun this would be with 6 athletes who all have PBs within less than one second from each other
Ran track for ten years of my younger life. First time I heard of an elimination mile....this is awesome.
this is a good idea, but I think it would work better with more people!
Disagree, they would have to run longer (at least if they go out one by one) and that kind of kills it... I think it should be shorter... Also if there are too many people in there it gets harder to move around, which would be super important when you are speeding up for the end...
Why? This is perfect...the last leg comes down to bronze, silver, and gold.
No reason to have more runners.
Unless maybe you had 3 eliminated, then 2, then 1, and the last leg still had 3 left.
It's a stupid idea - total waste of time and talent.
@@brokenwave6125 I like your plan better. 3, 2, 1, and 3 left for last lap.
No
I think that there should be an event that u keep on running laps until there’s one person left
FancyOpossum Olympic pacer test
It’d take hours
William Lewis I think he meant a person is eliminated every lap so when you run one less laps as people your done
John nah that would be this with a 10k. Or you can just make it 4 runners. He means keep going till u can’t in this case lol
FancyOpossum people run 100 miles races... the guy with the current world record did it on the track, 400 laps at a 7:01 average pace. Took him over 11 hours
I clicked this because I thought the title said "Track NEEDS More Elimination MINES!" not "Miles" - somewhat disappointed, but also relieved.
This is an event we have in track cycling (including in the Olympics for the track omnium). It's extremely exciting. This should be an official event. Cycling has eliminations every 500m (2 laps) until it's down to 2, for however many competitors are in the race, which can be 20+.
I love this event, wow. Yes, def need more of this!!
shorter ones went first ... what a shock ....
Anar Chy shocker distance is typically easier for short people though
Distance, not speed hahahaha
Too bad they didn’t have any short East Africans in this, though. I’m sure they would’ve done well, although the longer the distance, the more it seems to benefit being short and light, and the mile isn’t too long.
YOA Buddy Bolt is taller than almost any sprinter and he is 6'5. Most sprinters aren't tall.
Lexi Jarvill anyone that runs distance knows this is false. Longer legs = longer strides
It would’ve been hilarious if Usain bolt got into the final 100 meter stretch and destroyed them😂😂
...
Bears, Beets, Battlestar Galactica
Busta Move exactly, your list makes as much sense as Bolt lasting a mile.
+mike bronicki his list makes perfect fucking sense
It would be funny if Bolt would run the entire race with them. He'd have survived the 800m at most...
Love it!! This is exactly what track and field needs. New tactics.
"BOLT CAM" I love that hahaha
Dude if they had this race more often they’d get more viewers hands down
Filed under cruel and unusual
Hamilton, Ontario, Canada used to have the Paavo Nurmi 10k in the morning with the top finishers qualifying for the "Devil Take The Hindmost" race as part of the 91st Highlanders Indoor Games. It was an elimination mile on a 120 yd indoor wooden track. Splinters flying! Absolutely crazy! The crowd went wild every year.
Why was this recommended to me?? And why the hell was it that much entertaining?! 😆
This is the most entertaining track race I've ever watched

Running that fast I get eliminated on purpose
Malaki727 Back in high school, had these guys on our cross country team that used to screw around at practice and never put in a full effort. Coach chewed them out one day and the kid said, "Coach, we're too cool to run fast".
Thomas Mahoney as much I run, I dread my speed days, I hate running around that 445- 5 min mile pace .
Nice story though bro
Malaki727 Intervals aren’t fun for anyone, for sure. Mile intervals suck. 400m intervals. Etc.
Still, I miss the team camaraderie and being in good shape.
So much more fun to watch this type of race
This was really enjoyable to watch. Description is accurate.
We used to do this for 2 miles at a high school invitational we host. It was very exciting the first 2 years until the fast kids figured out the best strategy was to just run away from the field. You really need evenly matched athletes for this to work well.
Well at high levels (like Olympics) that's pretty much a given. At high school or collegiate levels, not so much.
That is a clever concept! Bit weird but strangely exciting.
I love the competition and strategy involved in this race
What an exciting format! I've never seen it before.
This is amazing, what a race
YES! More elimination races in track!
Leaning into the “finish line” on that second lap 🤣 🤣 🤣
Much more fun to watch than your average track and field run
Really good time for elimination mile!
I just wanna know what happened to the 3rd place dude did he just give up
Judging by his facial expressions his lungs created a gravity well in his diaphragm which sucked in his very soul.
He just went shopping
You can see the runners smiling. Especially at the last 100m of every lap. Nice to know they are enjoying this
I did track for two years, and two of my best friends ran the mile. It was always really fun to watch them run. I was more of a thrower, but I did do some relays and 100 meter dashes.
I would LOVE to see this in the olympics! This type of running is sooo cool. The strategy is higher than I have seen in any other running event before. It doesn’t even need to be mile either. There could be a 10k version with 27 people!
Imagine that!
I would love to see this!
This is exactly what track needs to stay interesting and relevant.
Definitely a tough run, but makes things much more interesting than the sit and kick racing so common these days at big meets.
What a great format to watch
this is super fun to watch !
Elimination miles. 10k points elimination points races etc.
I like how every time they cross the line they all slow down
i bet this in highschool t&f would be fun to watch
So much fun to watch. Put it in every college track meet. Good silly fun.
Not silly, tactical. Could be an extremely unpredictable and entertaining event at the Olympics.
everything so wrong in this video : elimination on running event with 400m, Bolt cam (holly god lmao), had great fun
We need this in Highschool track
It would be literal hell, unless you got out first
This is probably the best track event I've ever seen. Awesome.
This is so intense! Love it!
Literally just trying to get this out of my recommended
My legs hurt just by watching them
Wow I remember when you this channel only had like 10k subs now they are passing my expectations 👏🏾🔥
This is way more fun to watch than "just run". Yeah, the elimination process makes the watching this so much better.
It’d be cool to see a lot of these track cycling events translated to track, some interesting races!
Yes it seems to work well in cycling, so worth trying in athletics.
This was fantastic to watch, and I remember seeing it on television when Nitro Athletics did its first year in 2017. This is a great concept because it is a hugely tactical race; a balance between maintaining your position against conserving enough for the finish. It really should be considered for mainstream events.
This is *EXTREMELY* boring to watch. No suspense, no real strategy, no excellence, and no opportunity to run your best race.
I love this concept. Way more exciting than the usual race
wow such a brilliant idea! I loooove the elimination mile.
This is so breathtaking.
This favors taller runners. They spend less energy in the beginning. The smaller runners usually gain something at the end of a normal race by not having spent as much energy getting to that point so therefore seem to have a kick against larger runners. Not in this race though.
Lol, I was just searching for a commenter who saw what I saw. It's basically "eliminate the smaller runners by height order" until the final lap
Billy Bussey distance is easier for shorter runners what are you talking about😂
Lexi Jarvill
Yes, but the shorter runners get eliminated before the race goes to any distance that would benefit them.
Not necessarily, don't forget that this is endurance, they can't sprint too much in the first lap... Short runners can beat taller ones at that speed if they try hard...
@@remotegod255 All running favors taller runners...wtf are you talking about?
I was in the crowd and it remains one of the funnest events to watch :)
