Josh Kerr 2x4x400 before London DL

I think people run mile/1500 workouts too hard in practice. you don't need to kill yourself with every mile workout - don't need the "classic" 12x400 off 1:00 at 1500 pace. Race a couple 800s or 3000s early as well. Then run 2x 5x 300 or 10x 300 off 90-120s as a mid-comp workout, then a handful of longer reps (I like 2x 800 at mile, 2x 400 at 1500, 2x 300 at ~1200).

Seems like a workout a 3:27 runner should do.

Not sure if he's in PR shape; 57.9 to finish isn't so hot.

I’d be surprised if he went under 3:29, astonished if he went under 3:28. A decent workout he is probably in 3:29.xx shape right now. A little better than Nuguse and Hocker.

3:27 is faster than what he averaged in this workout, and that is even with a 4 minute rest inbetween. He is definitely not running 3:27.

Loved how at the end of the video he says "it's great having MY team here". He seriously wants to feel in charge of something so he has created this ragtag group that he refers to HIS team. That is cringeworthy. Just don't get why he has to act this way.

You had me until the “then a handful of longer reps.”

when the last rep is your slowest, you certainly didn't knock the workout out of the park. but kerr knows what he's doing. im sure he'll be ready when the time comes. and the time is not this week. it's two months from now.

Still plenty of time for him to drop out of the London DL for some bogus reason

He pays them as contractors so yes…it is his team. Same thing as any sales team.

You’re cringe with your lump neck, soft body

If he was a POC remarking about ‘his crew’ you’d be giving him a tongue bath.

He said it was .8 per lap slower than before Paris. 3:29 high incoming

Nah, Jakob isn’t running so he’s good to go.

Ok thanks for clarifying

This runner is a gentleman, very educated.

At least he know his bounds.

Since last year a couple of us have been following his coach since that weird message he posted on his Instagram. Turns out if you go on his ex Instagram page who died - there seems to be some sort of legal woes for DM again. I am reading between the lines but they are claiming Justice. This is not good for Brooks. I think there is a storm brewing. I hope Josh is able to distance himself. He is too good to get caught up on this and I feel like Julian is really his main "Team/Coach".

3:25.99 incoming.

Team is actually kinda the standard terminology, but when he used to say staff that was weird. Watch any tennis player or whatever and they’ll credit their team.

That's exactly what I thought.

This wasn't a pre-London workout. Based on what Danny was saying, it sounds like this workout was from back in June (he mentions worlds being 3 months away). This was a solid first hard 1500m/mile workout, and I imagine he's done some more impressive sessions since.
