NIKE GOES HOME DEVASTATED, BARELY OFF HER TRUE WR.
We also will be doing a live watch praty and reaction show starting 5 minutes before the race (so 1:55 pm ET) and then going on for as long as we need to afterwards:

not even close
Well Nike got some good advertising but that was a joke
All that advantages etc. and she barely runs a second quicker, very dissapointing.
The commentator won😁
Nike goes home devastated
We knew it. We all knew it.
Meh. Good show, but the draft skeptics were right.
4:06:01
Theoretical scientists go home DEVASTATED
Try again in 50 years
Can't blame her for absolutely going for it though, wonder if that's a 1200m record too.
Hats off to Faith. What a run.
I am dumber for having watched this joke of a spectacle.
Less than a second ahead of her WR with ALL THAT tech? Embarrassing
Yeah she's not in as good shape as 2023 when she set the WR. She could have been 1-2 seconds faster if she had these pacers on that day I believe.
I guess it was too good to be true. Makes sense
That was a joke. Why did Nike make her do that.
Stewie for the win. Best job of the pacers.
Terrible commentary. Acting Like she was one pace when she was already Fading after 1k. Just another Marketing stunt
