Some super fast times in the 1000m at the Volksbank Trier Eifel Flutlichtmeeting in Trier, Germany tonight. Spain's Mohamed Attaoui just ran 2:12.25 for 1000m, which puts him #3 on the all-time list behind Ngeny and Coe. Kenya's Festus Lagat -- who was 4th in the Kenyan trials in the 1500 and won't even be at Worlds -- was 2nd in 2:12.96. That is #5 all-time.

1. 2:11.96 Noah Ngeny, 1999 Rieti
2. 2:12.18 Seb Coe, 1981 Oslo

Will be on the lookout for the vid. Looks like it was a heckuva race, two guys under 2:13. Terrific.

re: Jonathan Gault

Anything under 2:15 is really really good.

re: Jonathan Gault

This shows the record’s days are now numbered, and with bicarbonate it is no surprise, as there are now probably about 6 guys who can run 2:12xx now. This record is broken within a year if they make it a priority.

re: Jonathan Gault

I read weeks ago about his intention to improve the European 1000m record
but he said things about other runner, I didn't them to be exploited (in the bad side) in this forum.

A fueled up, glowing Sedjati would run 2:10.0 in peak fitness

Yes Wanyonyi can get this record and probably improve it a decent bit. Festus Lagat ran sub-50 at Kenyan Trials in the last lap of the 1500 and wasn’t even the hardest-luck loser.

re: THOUGHTSLEADER

Also noting Jude Thomas 3:31.8 and runner up to Chapple, Ciattei 3:32.0 3rd. Thomas on merit should go over Hoare to Tokyo but it looks unlikely.

Obvious Moroccan doper.

re: Jonathan Gault

Yeesh. You have to imagine someone like Wanyonyi could smash the record then. Low 2:11 incoming soon?

9 months ago 09/02/2025 5:36pm EDT

re: THOUGHTSLEADER

Thomas has run slower this year and placed lower at the Australian national championships than Hoare.

Hoare is also a comm games Gold medallist and OG finalist.

There is not much splitting them this year so you have to go with Hoare.

The same as Cam Myers being overlooked last year despite clearly having a lot more upside than Stuey for future years.

re: Jonathan Gault

Handsome Hoey is THE 800/1500 man right now, and will slaughter that 1000 record next season. He ran the second-best indoor time months ago on a whim.

re: Jonathan Gault

Shoes, bicarbonate, doping.

Coe still has the record by seconds.

9 months ago 09/02/2025 5:46pm EDT

re: Jonathan Gault

This tells me the top guys (Hoey, Wayn, Sedjati) will be knocking on the door of 2:10

9 months ago 09/02/2025 5:56pm EDT

re: Chef Gordon Ramzi

Yaa.. Attaoui and Hoey have identical PRs at 800 but Hoey is miles better at 1500.

WR attempt!

re: Jonathan Gault

Fantastic performance.

I'd love to see a 1000m race with the top 800m guys vs the top 1500m guys.

Wanyonyi, Arop, Sedjati, Hoppel, Tual, Attaoui, Burgin, Hoey Hocker, Jakob, Kerr, Nuguse, Kessler, Laros etc. in a 1000m race would be EPIC

Not impressed. This record should be around 2:11 flat

Well I am impressed. Attaoui is firmly entrenched as a medal threat and even a potential Gold Medalist, however unlikely.
