Did you see how easy and effortless his running was in this SF ? No doub he is smashing Jakob Ingebrigtsen next Tuesday. Nuguse looks very strong too, he is a threat.

Ayyye Nick. Jakob front ran that for everyone and he barely broke a sweat. To say Kerr looked great and didn't look like he used much effort is fine, but completely disregarding the person who front-ran the easiest 3:32 ever is pretty moronic.
He looked comfortable. I could be making something out of nothing but I thought Jakob might have been a bit perturbed to look over in the last 50 and see Kerr right there looking relaxed, after having turned a 61 opening lap into a 3:32 race.

I think he was just looking around. JI just ran the 4th fastest time ever 3 weeks ago. Kerr is not that fast with a 3:29 PR (I think). JI screws arpund too much in slower races. There is no one in the world faster than him right now.

I agree. Kerr was equally comfortable there.
Btw, Kerr really looked thinner than he had ever been. He's keyed in.

Kerr can definitely run much faster than his PB indicates though. Same goes to Hocker.
Sth like low-mid-3:27 for Kerr and 3:28 for Hocker.

I mean theoretically he or anyone can but why hasn't he done it when everyone else has? I am not sure he can run 3:27.

I’m not sure either. But he just ran the last 1100 meters of that race at 3:26.6 avg. pace with a 40.0 last 300 and made it look easy. That’s why Jakob might be unsettled.
Actually come to think of it I feel bad for all the people that demean Khamis now after seeing that his prediction about Kerr winning is becoming more and more reality with each passing second.
And now Nick is saying the same thing about Kerr’s superior biomechanical sprint technique (is that what was referred to by Nick) which Khamis previously brought up as a crucial indicator of ‘killer touch’ and victory probability.
First it was the heats and now it was the semi finals Kerr just looked far easier moving around the track than hocker and Jakob. Khamis was yet again right that 2 steps of Jakob or hocker is 1 step of Kerr which impacts great change of pace as Kerr can literally go past anybody in only 1 stride and be harder to respond to but Jakob can’t go as fast which allows Kerr lots of time to respond.
I followed Khamis points of information and am stumped to see how right he was about everything and even beginning to think he actually hits all the right notes all the time. He doesn’t get it wrong at all. Such eerie fitness!
Kerr has exceptionally high and highest knee lift and a straight torso which allows him to stretch out his legs while Jakob leans way too much and can’t stretch out as much with those baby steps.
