Kessler Update - 3:35 in Berlin

Excited for the dude. Only 20yrs old with super talent who I am sure as he gets more race experience will be go onto many great performances.

Is this Ron Warhurst?

Do you know anything about what this nice block of training looks like? Weekly mileage and workouts etc.

I was pretty sure he would run at ISTAF in Berlin. It looks like Parsons and Bartelsmeyer are also still in Germany and probably run also the 1500m.

I don’t believe you. Based on how this year has gone, it’s far more likely he will show up at his local Labor Day fun run.

I do know most of the training, but look at the responses on here..you think I am posting that? This is why people ask where is this guy KIng999 lately..these kind of BS responses.

What BS responses? Tomorrow is September, and Hobbs has only run ONE outdoor 1500 this year other than US nationals and three road miles. The only thing that’s BS is that ratio.

Stop acting like you’re the POTY you’re just a letsrun.com poster wtf🤣

Thanks for the update! I hope he runs fast in Berlin and then is able to compete in a few more fast races.

Is he faster than Bartelsmeyer?

Good to hear, though was there consideration for trying to get into today's DL? Brussels being a 2K potentially for a lame Jakob WR attempt takes that one off the table, but today's look like a field that it would be fun to see him in. Berlin usually puts together a solid field, so I'm optimistic either way.

3:35 mid for 4th. Underwhelming.

What % chance do people put at qualifying for Paris? And where would you place him in the current USA 1500m pecking order?

I don’t know about his chances for next year but I would place him 6th in the current USA 1500m pecking order because that’s the place he finished in that event at the 2023 Toyota USATF Outdoor Championships.

Not a bad placing. No one wanted anything of the pacers. No fight for Kessler. Some guys wanted it more. He needs to do more racing now that he's healthy and fit. He can go faster than he showed there.

Hmmm 25%? I’d put him 5th probably.

He ran pretty well

Why did they not try to keep up with the pacers? Conditions were not bad and the track is fast there..
