I'd rather have Kerr and Jakob promoting interest in the sport with some rather harmless (and slightly contrived) 'trash talk', than Cole Hocker finishing with a 39s last 300m in a 3:27 in the Olympic final and claiming that 'Jesus pushed me'.
A lot of people would like to see him get 'taken down'.
My grandpa is suspicious because he thanks God for this wonderful family

As a journalist (lol) and content creator, it seems hypocritical of you to steal others content
As bad as the FBI is these days, the one area that they still take seriously is copyright violations. Advising readers how to steal intellectual material is unacceptable 100% of the time.

i am here to steal everything
onto track.
Hocker I think isn't so much as laying in the weeds, as training through, and just might be in the shape of his live come July
Kerr, crazy guy says it's all mental, well, I think his training block and rust buster set him up to be "mentally" prepared last time out.
I believe fitness makes for a mentally strong athlete.
and lack of fitness, illness makes for a neurotic athlete.
that said, there is such a thing as big stage performers.
It talks a lot about how Hocker has never raced in Franklin Field, but he's a student of the sport and well aware of its history.

“I’d say it might be number two most iconic in the U.S. behind Hayward [Field], so I’m excited to check that one off my bucket list,” he said, referring to Oregon’s famed track stadium. “I’ve watched all these races of Cheserek and all the Oregon legends running at Penn, so it’s pretty cool.” Hocker mentioned Cheserek’s 4xMile anchor leg in 2015, an all-time moment. Cheserek took the baton having helped the Ducks win not just the previous day’s distance medley relay, but also the 2014 DMR and 4xMile. This time, he deliberately slowed down the entire field at the start of the anchor leg, then lost to Villanova in the final stretch.
"I’ve seen that a bunch of times,” Hocker said. “You can tell how important it is to win. I think, honestly, there’s a lot of parallels between Grand Slam and that, because you want to win at Penn. … You might run a fast time, but it’s all about winning, and Grand Slam is the same way.”
Hocker also talks about the Jakob v Kerr rivalry.

“I don’t think I try to get along, and I don‘t try to keep the peace. I just do my thing,” he said. “And I think there’s a lot of takeaways from last year on being so focused on someone else, and what can happen.” ... “I think it was probably the most anticipated event of at least the track Olympics, [beyond] maybe the 100 meters,” Hocker said. “Obviously, there’s so much to say about their race and congratulating me, but so many people bring up this rivalry. … Whether they see me as the underdog, people are like, ‘Oh, I’m so happy to see both those guys go down. I don’t like how they talk.’ So if I can be a piece in that story, and they kind of created it, yeah, I think conversation around it is always a good thing.”

Hocker is condemned liar. He tries to politicize the rivalry for his corrupt gain. Always dirty.

I'd say unbelievable, but sadly this is believable. It'd an indictment. This tells you the quality of people who read Letsrun. Theft is NEVER acceptable.
