Strong work!
Is the Norwegian in there Henrik's brother?
elliott's had bad luck getting into faster races, but here he did have a 3:34 to follow and couldn't, but still amazing improvement from him for the career.
F the haters. Let the man do his thing. He deserves it. In 10 years he will be one of the, if not the, biggest inspirations of this generation.

Yeah it was. Interestingly enough, his littlest brother Jacob ran a 4:20 1500m as an 11 year old.
If he got in a race won in 3:30 (not that there have been many of those this year, but still), he would run 3:32.5-3:33.9 guaranteed. The guy is competing in his first international track season and has already lopped....what 4 seconds off his PR?
GET ELLIOT IN ONE FAST RACE THIS YEAR AND SEE WHAT HE DOES!!!!
best ever 1500 for an 11-y-o.

Thank you for the link.
I remember when Matt was running 27:00-28:00 8k's at Presbyterian College in SC. Now look at him.
Happy for him...hopefully by the end of the year he has another break through and goes 3:32ish Once of the nicest kids I have seen in a long time.
Not sure what the big deal is about 3:36 now in the U.S.
But if it must be so, guys do the end zone dance when they can and write on footballs, is this that big a deal?
Wait until Acosta comes back

That kid is peaking too early. He'll be fried by age 16.

I wonder what happened to this kid. It’s too bad to see all these young athletes chasing times at a young age, throuwing away all potential they have by just being too competitive and eager for the sport.
