2023 BROOKS PR Invite Official Discussion Thread - FREE live stream

Ali 2:01

Same with Nike Outdoor Nationals. That means we get the epic HS mile showdown we’ve been waiting for. I don’t know why there are so many free streams lately but I’m certainly here for it. Good for the sport.

You think Ali Ince has a 2:01 in her?? Decent enough mile time 2 weeks ago at Hoka (tho she got 6th) but it's been awhile since she's crushed an 800. She's due to go off at 6:35 E.T. tonight by the way.

She's going to try and go out in .58 or .59 so we'll see.

They are running mile and 2 mile w/ 1500, 1600, 3000 & 3200 en route times, so numerous records in play.

If there is not a free live stream nobody will watch it.

It's actually that simple.

She ran her 2:03.17 PR this April at Arcadia. Between Arcadia and Hoka she went 29-1 by my count (including relays and prelims), only losing the Illinois State 4x800 final. She ran under her prior years’ 400 PR 3 times since Arcadia, and PRed by 7 seconds in the mile at Hoka. So I don’t know if she can run 2:01, but I definitely wouldn’t read into her lack of blazing 800s recently.

Thanks for that, but if Ali really has run 30 races between Arcadia & Hoka (just 8 weeks!) all the more reason not to expect anything approaching a 2:01 here today. And the fact I don't recognize her competition today leads me to believe she'll have to do it solo.

Im not convinced there is anybody who could press her in this field like Browne did at Arcadia that would allow her to get down to a 2:01. Maybe Putman or Shults can run out of their minds? Not sure. But she would likely have to do it on her own. And Brooks has always been a free stream to my recollection. Same with the others.

Well that’s kind of the whole reason she hasn’t run a super fast 800 recently. (From Athletic.net) On April 25th for example she ran a 57 400, a 2:17 800, a 5:08 1600 and a leg on the 4x4 - that’s not 4 exhausting races, that’s a workout. I figure she’s been essentially training through the scholastic season in preparation for meets like Brooks.

Having said that…I would guess she’ll run another 2:03.

Noticed a few of those meet records were pretty recent. Wonder how they're doing now?

cant wait for the arcadia 3200 rematch at brooks 2 mile (simmons, hansen, burnbaum). just saying if your good next year, don't make a mistake on skipping out on arcadia 3200 in 2024

For those in the Seattle area, it's being held at the Renton Stadium. I've also heard that there is no admission fee to get in. In other words, it's FREE to attend!

Yes, free admission. Weather looks great, no rain, no wind, low to mid 60s. Starts in 90 minutes.

Paul Swangard and Carrie Tollefson doing the commentary, stream looks good.

Ugh, there's no race clock on the broadcast so far!

Yeah, it stopped at 32 seconds into the local girls mile and that was that. Gonna have my watch going. Ellie Shea vs. Engelhardt starting now!

Yeah, bummer. But I've been able to see the splits on the clock board near the finish line. Girls 2 mile up. Shea vs Engelhardt as well as Bob Kennedy's daughter. Meet record of 9:50 could go down.

Forget any meet record here, .78 first lap.
