Cole Hocker goes home DEVASTATED

3:30.7 for a PR isn't too shabby after a rough season. I don't think DEVASTATED is the right word here.

Not a good evening in Budapest for the New Gen TF possee

Hocker has a chance to medal next year for sure.

NOt as much as Nuguse. Awwww

Great, another "goes home devastated" thread.

It's like you losers gloat at the bad result of another. What the fock have you ever done?

As I’ve stated before: this is Letsrun, where you’re either on the Burrito Diet or you go home Devastated. There is no in between.

This was a great result for him. Late start to the season with injuries and PRs in a Final with a 3:30. Hope to see him in some DLs post Worlds and chase that sub 3:30.

I don’t think it’s that bad, doesn’t this performance make him one of the fastest American born 1500m runners in history?

This is just a strange reaction. Dude goes 3:30.7 PR and places 7th in the final when he started running in April, and didn’t make the team last year?

I confused, were you really expecting a medal given those circumstances?

This is great result all told.

It makes them feel better about their last fourth place finish in their age group a local 5k. The reality is once you've won one medal they don't really matter. I don't think you're a real runner till you leave saying, "I ran the best race I could," in a race that you lost.

Overall he had a good season. He ran a solid race, and a spectacular time given the conditions, at the weird six mile Polo Field Track course at Club Nationals. And he has a pretty solid outdoor year.

Cole Hocker fans are so lame. Always bragging about time trials(which hundreds of runners around the world can do) but can’t brag about winning global medals. These are the same people hating on Centro. But centro has 3 global medals and won them since the age of 21.

Man don’t you hate when you PR after having a rough season when it counts the most?

I bet Hocker is listening to Juice WRLD and crying himself to sleep tonight as we speak.

Hair's breadth of sub 330. Yea devastated!

I won Turkey Trot last year with a 17:57.

Lmao you’re getting downvotes for telling the truth, I actually like Hocker and he seems like a nice dude but his fan base is awful and irrationally hates Centro for no reason

Can't believe I am even replying to this pathetic post.

Just go away.

Congrats to Hocker.

7th in the WORLD!

You go man.

Your time will come.

What if you go home devastated after consuming burrito?

Not really, once you adjust for the shoes and the track.

3:30 ain’t what it used to be.
