Official Day 4 Worlds Discussion Thread - Men's Steeple Final, Women's 1500 final and more (7 pm ET instant reaction show)

Kipngetich impressed me so much tactically. Outfoxed everyone in there. Harris has gotta be smarter than that knowing he’s not beating Ordonez or Sedjati in a sprint.

When you know there are little qs on the line, why TF would you dawdle on the first lap like that?

Maybe if I half tackle the guys in front of me I can still qualify

Harris should stop heelstriking it looks ridiculous

Harris just a tactical disaster.

Not a good start from team USA 800m. But I wasn’t expecting Harris to do much anyways.

Ordóñez went out front and slowed it down. He has a good last 200. Knows sedjati will be happy with it too.

Anderson not bothering to hide the pain while sitting in the temp-q area

Harris trusted his finish way too much. At 300 to go he should’ve been trying to match Kipngetich and getting clear separation on Ordonez.

I thought Harris was gonna fall over backward on that home stretch.

These heatmaps need better resolution. The lines shouldn't be fluctuating like that.

Already been mentioned, but how does a 1:55 PR runner exist at worlds. An above average high schooler could run that

He says he believed in his kick on the nbc interview. The problem is he shouldn’t have. Certainly nobody who’s watched him for years like us does.

Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeverybody thinks they have the kick. Most don't. I've never seen Harris storm on at the end, so I have no idea why he thinks that's a good strategy for him.

I’ve always been amused by this Norwegian’s name: Ole Jakob Solbu.

Ol’ Jakob

Let's GO Hoppel! Nice run.

Wow, watching this event and am so struck by the level of mediocrity. This has to be the weakest MD, D event across all of the events, men or women.

Solbu with the classic dart to the front, nearly trip up the field, and finish last strategy

who let the high school norwegian in
