Hart's a proper fan. He is a midpacker but, understands how incredible a 3:50 mile is and how much talent and work that it requires. Like him or not, he is a very public figure and if he shows love to the sport, it gets other people interested. I'll venture that a Kevin Hart tweet about track or his organizing 5K training runs when he does standup tours brings more new people to the sport than any ATL or Diamond League telecast on cable.
Good to have friends of track with some fame to grow the sport. A 3:50 mile is the kind of performance that commands attention no matter who you are. Two 3:50 miles on one college team by guys who are just 19 and 21, though, is insanely good.

He did hire Ben Thomas
Kevin Hart got mentioned on LRC. G.R.E.A.T.
Not to be funny but I wonder if it's a paid partnership. Wouldn't be a bad idea if USATF threw some cash at people with reach to promote events. Hart might've found it on his own but I wouldn't be shocked if this is UO/Nike marketing (I believe Hart has a deal with Nike which could support either).

It’s always seemed like Hart has been somewhat of a track and field fan, ie his friendship with Bolt. I wouldn’t be surprised if he is genuinely friends with coach Johnson.
Why is Coach Johnson in the pic?....he not even coaching these guys.

Why would you not like him?
Because the Gay Lobby went after him?
So a head coach taking a photo with his athletes makes him a slime? Johnson gave credit to Thomas for the successful weekend his runners had.
Yeah, but what did Carrot Top have to say, did he go on TikTok to talk about it?

I hope your company's CEO and president disavow the crap work you do, too.

Deluded statement.

I credit you and the Gay Lobby for making me aware of the fact that he is homophobic, but that's actually the reason I don't like him.
Great interview with Steve Cram - says Jakob has no chance of WRs this year
