Here is a link to the 1500 video:

We changed the thread titled to make it more descriptive. It was initially titled, "Ruthe and Tanner dead heat."

If you are unfamiliar with Ruthe, since the start of 2025, he has set World records for fastest 1500 (3:41.25), mile (4:01.72) and 3000 (7:56.18) ever run by someone at the age of 15 (he turns 16 on April 12). That being said, him tying Tanner is a shock as Tanner ran 3:51 in the mile for the win at BU on February 21 and has a 3:31 1500 pb from 2023.

We also merged a 2nd thread into this one. It was titled, "Sam Ruthe and Sam Tanner tie in NZ 1500m Champs!"
