3:32.40 WL if you don't count Nuguse's time.
That's why world record attempts are a bit boring when there is no one else in the race and they come up short.
Fell off pace before the pacers were out.

3:32. Fell off last two laps. Disappointing.
He’s missed about a month of hard training and had to leave altitude training early. His comments Pre-race hinted that he wasn’t expecting much.

Jakob looks happy with the result—who wouldn’t be after missing a few weeks of training?

He did look like he had to work for that.

Expected him to run 3:32-3:33 but I agree, would've loved to have seen a WR

Almost all of her best performances have come when she's split 58 for the first lap. She's total class, but she looks like she's trying to run someone else's race when she goes out in 56
The worst part is we got Jenny Meadows who is in her camp and there seems to be no self-awareness about it on the commentary. She’s talking about Keely struggling the last 300 and thinking it’s due to lack of competition and not just running her ideal strategy for her attributes.
Agreed. It seems like a real tactical blindspot.
In Hodgkinson's defence a little, I just watched the race back and she's in Lane 2 a lot just as she was in Torun. If she wants a real TT effort, she'll need to do it somewhere she can run undisturbed on the paver's shoulder

Is it just me, or do wave lights spoil the anticipation when you see the runner fall behind the pace in the last lap and know he's not gonna make it?
Wave lights should be turned off for the passt 200-400m.

So we could paywall it? That is a bit hypocrical! But the LetsRun.com paywall won't be cracked by a VPN :)

Ingebrigtsen looked tired. I commend him for following the pacers and giving the world record a go even though he clearly isn’t 100%. Nice run all things considered.

Agreed.
I'm sort of surprised he just didn't back it on backstretch, start doing like airplanes to the finish.

Sorry for expecting more than 1:46 high and 3:32.

Flotrack makes you buy an annual subscription for $150. I'm not going to pay $150 to watch the 5 or 6 meets I'd be interested in seeing.

It’s a testament to Jakob’s greatness that this is the collective reaction to 3:32.4. He’s building back and had to grind and still he runs that fast.

It’s mostly that I don’t want to have to deal with a VPN or pay for a whole set of services (and making sure to cancel) to see a couple random meets that aren’t on Peacock. Paywall or open-access, you’d have my $ if you can cut out these middlemen. Bonus: if you’re doing a YT livestream, insert your guys’ athlete interviews between races

For real, I wouldn't mind paying per meet, but there pricing model is utter doo doo. I tought the used to do that.
