Foot speed still MATTERS: Jakob’s Achilles Heel

You just might be the dumbest person on this thread for that comment lol

or he could just have a pacer go longer and he would have ran faster.

There is only you and I so that is unlikely.

He won the race though!

He's literally two strides away from the world record.

That doesn’t get him the record though.

Your takeaway after watching the race is that he can't get the WR?

Exactly. That is the takeaway but I already knew it.

You mean footspeed is an important factor in a footrace? Who knew?

Yeah and of course those two strides might as well be the Grand Canyon. It ain’t gonna happen.

You nailed it!

I tend to agree. People are rarely able to run faster than their feet.

Exactly!

I beat my feet to the line by several hundredths last time I raced

Wow. dumbest thing I have read today. Oh well everyone has weaknesses.

Well one can see that I am correct. Jakob is able to break the 2000m record and he even bragged it was not so hard. Now at 1609m Jakob cannot do it. This is mostly due to his relative lack of foot speed. Not sure why this is so difficult for many of you.

This is why OP will NEVER run under 8 minutes for the mile. They do not have the requisite willpower to get off the couch and exercise. Oh well. Every troll has weaknesses.

Funny thing to say about a guy that late in the season in good but not ideal conditions, and with good but not ideal pacing is 0,6 behind lol

Jakob will NEVER run faster than 3:43.7 EVER!!! Lmao what are you gonna say when he beats his mile time next year buck ?
