Goat miller Josh MF Kerrs runs 3:44 to scare the WR

Funny troll. Kerr did appear remarkably relaxed since he knew he had no real competition, unlike Paris and Zurich where he showed his true abilities in comparison to the world’s best.

Cheat-shoes get another record. Hooray!

5th Ave is net downhill. Most people I talk to add 3sec to get a track mile.

Great job by Kerr. Nice work by Hoey 2nd in 3:49

Was surprised to see Kessler 9th in 3:53

Wightman is Scottish.

Kerr is a power runner with speed. I can't see anyone ever beating him in a mile road race. No one else will come near that 3:44 record for this race. Fantastic run by Kerr. Smoked them all.

I think that straight line, no turns, matters at least as much as the seemingly negligible net downhill.

(Caveat I've never been there)

I'd be so disappointed if I had 2 olympic medals and 2 world titles.

Of course I will get accused of excuse making

but a tank only is so full

no one else ran 13 races from 6/20-end if August

no Md runner anyway

Time to re-tool

It was particularly fast for the elites as the wind went from westward and swirling in the early AM to a straight on tailwind. I think you’re talking about 4-5s, which tracks with a pretty conservative first 700 or so.
Women’s improves on Schweizers converted PB by 4s roughly I think. Makes sense as that one was fast from the gun.

I have ran the 600m WR downhill in order to get a strava segment, do I get a medal or certificate or something?

Nothing like Kerr is full flight.

Hoey getting second in that race is 10x more surprisings than Kerr running 3:44 downhill

3:44 with uphills, downhills, and 15 feet of elevation loss? Front running half the race?

is this course 5,280 feet, certified?

Front running 1:44 last 800 to break his own 800 personal record in a mile race.

Seems he could have doen sub 3:40 on even splits

3.44 downhill in strong tailwind

wow

Kerr ran in New York today.

I have run in London a few times.

I Run = now

I Ran = yesterday and it is over

I Have run = in the past AND I COULD RUN MORE IN THE FUTURE.

In English, you can never, ever say or write "I have ran."

Kerr has undoubtedly had a great season but in my mind Olympic gold trumps World Champs gold. In terms of the usual suspects I would rank them Hocker/Jakob/Kerr. Though personally my favorite middle distance runner of the year was Kessler. Showed huge improvement in all facets of racing and seemed composed and level headed.

It's goat herder. Not goat miller.

A goat would make a terrible miller; it would likely just eat all the grains.
