Aside from the shoes you implied, being "dragged" in a fast race also helped,
The shoes are hype. They always have been. Times have improved without improvements in shoes and in some events there have been no distinct improvements despite new shoes.
this is just for publicity. nordas ran a 1:49 final 800 of his 3:29 pr. there is no reality where he cant run sub 24 for a flying 200.
this is the same bs where people were saying jakob couldnt break 50s for 400 but in reality is doing 400 repeats in 49.
This , once again the brojos showing the lack of journalistic curiosity. 209 sec is 28 sec per hundred, 7.5 times in a row, and he wants you to believe he can't do 24 sec. Maybe he hasn't tried yes.

I know this is an entirely different planet of performances, but when I was running my 1500m PR was 29.9 per 200m. I genuinely tried to run a 200m as fast as I could and hit 25-mid.
very good interview by JG. JG is not a skilled interviewed, per se, but he did a great job of asking question after question about the training regimen, which would basically be the same one Jakob has done for years. anybody interested in INgebrigtsen training should listen to this podcast.
It was 50 minutes of lawn mowing that went by very fast for this listener.
Yeah, Loved JG's questioning... and how forthcoming Nordas was. Pretty insightful.
