Amiright the video didn't show where Jakob had the pacer mess with him? Jakob is coming by outside on curve and in the next frame the pacer is cringing off to the outside.
The pacemaker was an Aussie 25 yo Jack Rayner who doesn't have clue 1 about pacemaking.
Bring back James Mayes.

No one has brought up that this kid is probably training like a professional for years already? Webb had maybe a year of semi-decent training at 16. Long-term I am not convinced this guy is the Second Coming.
No one really cares what you are convinced by.
Just enjoy his running. He could be Ivo Van Damme and be killed next week.
There are no guaranteed successes. No matter how good you are as a kid. There is no progression to greatness. There is no milestone he needs to meet to make you happy.

2 of your 3 qualities characterize just about every American tourist encountered in Europe. Exchange the hatred quip for loud and morbidly obese, and you've nailed your definition of what Europeans are exposed to regarding Americans. Living in Paris from 1990 to 2004 and Madrid from 2004-2010, I was sometimes embarrassed for my country at what I saw.
Show me the Americans who go to European message boards and spread their hate there. In contrast the vast majority of ESL Europeans who come to lrc cannot keep themselves from adding bits of America hatred and stereotypic assumptions to their posts.
Kenyans probably have probably legitimately run faster than all the junior age group records for middle distance and up but you wouldn't know it because their age cheaters were faster at their advanced age and have the records.
Listen here Eurotrash!
Some solid results in other track events from 18 & under crowd the past few years. It will be interesting to see if they continue to progress as they transition to adults.
Personally I had about 12 years of hard training & racing in me.
A message for Jakob.
""Don't let them put you down, don't let 'em push you around
don't let 'em ever change your point of view."
RIP: D3 All-American Frank Csorba - who ran 13:56 in March - dead
RENATO can you talk about the preparation of Emile Cairess 2:06
Running for Bowerman Track Club used to be cool now its embarrassing
Hats off to my dad. He just ran a 1:42 Half Marathon and turns 75 in 2 months!
Great interview with Steve Cram - says Jakob has no chance of WRs this year
