dear god. they lost by 15 seconds. Kerr 100% did the right thing to pass it up for the individual.
NM had the fastest time going into the meet in 2018, and he totally tanked his leg. We all saw it. Super weak. Somehow, he miraculously recovered the next day.

ok gotcha. i was looking at 2017. wasn't aware this ordeal happened.
Not gonna bother to hear what he said about the WOOP, but I think heart rate monitors are a neat and innovative idea.
Now that we have this essentially weightless cameras, we could put cameras on them too like in auto racing.

No biggie. I kind of figured you just didn’t know the background.
It’s all good for the sport. It draws more interest which is a good thing
Kerr seems like a prickly character, that comment will just be motivation for him now so let's see how he comes back in his next race. Thing is, Hoare was kind of right - he put two seconds into Kerr over the last 200. He was in a different league in that race but as Kerr said, it's January and it's a long year with all the championships this year

Come on man. He had a tummy ache. It happens.
It was clearly a joke,Josh and Oli obviously get on well,as long as they keep putting the yanks in their place its all good.
Easy to be out classed when you have no class yourself, Kerr
I thought it was hilarious. If you go on the associated Instagram post, Hoare shows up and says now Kerr will probably run 3:25. Sounds like a nice friendly rivalry with a little bit of jousting.

I don't think his reaction was anything crazy, more confused that Hoare said that, and I also don't think Hoare intended it to be a jab. His intention may as well have said 'I got the best of him' instead of 'he got outclassed'
All good points here. My take exactly.
Love to hear Kerr releasing his inner Roy Keane. He'll be a delight to listen to in the booth one day.
It's cool they are just friends and boosting rivalries without actually being toxic to each other. Healthy and fierce trash-talking, but clean. I like it.

Prescient comment.
