Nice run for Engels.
I'm surprised this isn't getting more attention. This was faster than Jakob's 800m which was perfectly paced by his brother last year. Being able to run a faster 800m than a 3:28 guy is huge and shows that Engels is ready for a significant 1500 PR.
For reference:
Engels time last year indoor was 1:49.03, and his outdoor time that year 3:35.42.
2020/21 1:46.10 Randal Tyson Indoor Center, Fayetteville, AR (USA) 31 JAN 2021
2019/20 1:49.03 JDL Fast Track, Winston Salem, NC (USA) 08 FEB 2020
Outdoor he could probably run 1:43 and beat his 1:44 PR, which would be 3s faster than Jakob (Jakob's 1:46.44 was outdoor). Will be an interesting year.
