Hocker emotional interview post milrose 3k

He is doping? Are you sure. seems like emotions are not an accurate drug test. C’mon. try to be a bit kinder and more logical.

This thread is a cesspool and a perfect example of why LRC forums are going down the drain.

You have to learn to scroll past the jerks and just read the real posts.

People who lost respect for Hocker are idiots. I've seen pro athletes of every sport cry and honestly, they should. It is correct to have a mountain of emotions and pressure building up if you are really laying it all on the line.

For people who are fine with just being good or getting PRs, fine. You can talk about never showing emotion, but if you were fighting like it mattered and going for a real victory at the highest level, then I sure as hell hope it matters to you if you don't win.

Good for Hocker for really going 100% and not just being happy to have "given it a good shot" like most runners say.

Not many people have been in a position like that, so we can only imagine how it might feel. Reminds me Rai Benjamin at the 2021 Olympics — kind of a similar reaction.

But he lost to another Kamala supporter.

Fantastic race. Cole is a baller but wow Grant is in great shape. His move to Utah has paid off.

Cole has the middle distance form of Micheal Johnson.

I assume you are trolling but your handle (propping up another man for some reason) refers to an actual non-American. Weird, right?

Musk can never be president (thank goodness).

If that's true then I'm now a Cole Hocker fan

Supporting the other side meant you were a remarkably stupid human being and worthy of nothing other than sustained mockery

Awesome race and so many pro athletes wouldn’t have interviewed that soon with emotions overwhelming. I appreciate his commitment to the fans.

What a bad ass brilliant young man. Hocker showed amazing courage with 3 laps to go in a bid for history--he lost the race, and Grant made history. But we all know that Cole Hocker made it happen!

When Cole beat Matthew for the OLY trials in '21, I became a believer. I was on these boards before that, saying "this college kid will burn out by the trials." Well, this guy made me eat my words back then. An he continues to impress, grow, and do amazing things. I'm a huge fan. Well, I'm a huge fan of Grant too, but honestly this was the day that Hocker put on a clinic: How to live your life! He wanted the win and the record, but he was selfless in giving Grant Fisher a huge gift.

the lights will come on

Hocker is number 2 all time 3K indoor, and almost beat #3 5 10k guy on the planet, who happens to be improving.

the lights will come on.

thinking you deserve to immediately jump to#1 or #2 in 5K type distances,

well my new favorite Hocker, those thoughts are stupid.

Who is your Nikki and what does he do?

HE IS a true champion. He doesn't waste time with that trash talk and absurd statements. He also doesn't show off training to scare like the other two. I'm starting to get tired of the nonsense of the Norwegian guy with the tattoos and the pimp with the glasses, we needed a champion like him and Yared

LOL, did you not watch that reality tv show?

Yes, there’s probably a little girl hiding inside him.

I say keep it long and swaying until male pattern balding kicks in.

El G wasn’t a cocky s-head to his competitors.

He's in love with running
