2025 Millrose Games Live Official Thread 4-6pm Eastern on NBC

Golden age for politics and Middle distance.

Losing to The Goose would have been quite a blow to his ego.

What does "FR" mean in the results????

Something "Record" ??

facility record

It's obviously the effect of a generation of LRCMB threads composed by experts in coaching, training, racing, technology, and political discourse.

Facility record

But that 3k race where the 1500m Oly Champ stepped up to meet the Double Bronze Oly Medalist stepping down was one for the ages. I thought Hocker would win, but Fischer looked incredible, as well.

I like how as soon as Josh Kerr said American distance running is soft, we just started breaking records and winning medals

That was an incredible race, too.

Thanks for the quick replies!

dude was pissing me off the whole race when they showed him but he looked good

Myers u20 world record will last a lot longer than Nuguse's world record. Actually I predict the world record is broken again in 2025.

listened to Goose, Cole, Grant post race interview

each guy reflects the same attitude. no need to have someone else control the pace to run fast, no need to fear leading, no artificial mental barrier to give it your all. so they join the big balls Jacob club, which is the mentality of a champion, of which, is very rare.

in the interview, actually Grant and Hocker reflected my pre race analysis, with is orthodox, and were surprised how it unfolded, where it was an absolutely epic fight, with absolute epic results.

Goose I had for WR indoors and outdoors, outdoors is 50 / 50

Now Hocker with the base is in there.

These guys may be able to run 326 without Jacob.

Then you have Kessler. Kerr will be lucky to keep up.

And the youngsters, in two years, there stand to be eight guys that can go 327 or better.

Nothing like this has ever happened, and not even close.

Does Millrose pay $25K to the winner, or to anyone who comes in under what was the WR at the start of teh race?

Nothing to tell. That's how it's done. I saw it when I was a timer. It's like any other insurance...the insurance company takes the premiums and rarely has to pay out. Today's going to hurt whatever company was the insurer, though.

Does anyone have Yareds1500 meter split?

im not gonna get too crazy over nuguse and kessler's performances. they did something they've been capable of before, just at a different time of year. might mean they are ready to jump to a new level in the summer, might just mean they are closer to peak fitness for a longer period of time.

but hocker and fisher showed us something new. indoor/outdoor PRs by a long shot. this could be big for them. what a great way to start 2025.
