Granted having a camera follow you around probably bumped up the effort but why run a complete race effort in practice not long before the actual goal/peak race?
Leaving seconds on the table... Jakob is shaking his head somewhere.
In this case the 1:48 in the actual race is irrelevant because it was a tactical affair. The meet itself was won out of the second heat. Now it is very possible that the workout was too much but to be fair he ran 3:36 five days later.

Side point, but mighty silly to run the final heat as a tactical affair, when the established rule was that the fastest overall time won, regardless of what heat it was in, and when all the runners in the final heat knew that a high 1:46 was already in the books.

Was it? I didn’t watch but they went out in 52, did it slow a lot in the next 200?

high school kids do this all the time. i see it at the state meet almost every year. 2nd to last heat a kid runs 1:52/1:53. last heat, everybody goes out in 60, and then they end up getting overall fastest time by a couple tenths.
There was so much traffic in that race. I think that was the best he was gonna do in a big field without going to the front right away. So it was either he runs 1:47 in practice and 1:48 in the race, or a controlled 2:00(?) in practice and 1:48 in the race.

Jakob (Ingebrigtsen), famous for his meticulous planning and perfect peaking, would actually shake his head at his system which emphasizes gradual build-ups and saving the real peak for race day.

Yes, we all know that a time trial that lasts less than 2 minutes will leave you burnt out for the rest of the season.
a lot of people don't make notes at all. a single 800 out of context has no meaning.
in the 8 you repeatedly have people run stinkers or sub par often, and get booted out of heats, in chaos finishes, despite having the better speed, etc. etc.
then come back in 2 weeks just fine.
recently you had Hoppel run what? 143 mid 147high 143 low this year?
that means 142 is coming in good race, and a great training block of 4 weeks away from 141.
On the one hand he and his Crater teammates (Gorze, Kitchen) have been training at a high level since freshman year and his coach has modeled their outcomes on the Newbury Park program (

On the other hand he has a lot of physical growth ahead of him. He's a small guy when standing on the starting line with other milers. He'll improve with size alone.

Hilarious you got a downvote. Most here still think 800 is a distance event and don't understand what you are saying. That kid won't be an 800/1500 guy at BYU, mark my words. Or WA either. If they try, he'll just be a training partner for the 2nd half of the squad. His form is about as good as their ncaa champ that wins slow, tactical races though.

I don't know if it's a widely accepted belief, but a very good 800m coach (who was a 1:45 flat guy himself), once told me that an athlete gets 5-6 good 800m races in a season.
