Not sure if anyone cares, but as someone who's been following the sport for decades, this was amazing.


Didn't like Josh Kerr at first, being a trash talker (vs Ingebrigtsen etc). But this Scotsman has certainly earned all the respect now. Taking down a Hicham el Guerrouj record that has stood since 1999. 3:27 split at 1500 when the world record there is by the same guy decades ago at 3:26.

Only a few old records left now, especially on the womens' side - but it's getting close.








Fk, the U.K has always produced gods at these distances. Remember watching Sebastian Coe's training vids and read papers by Tom McKean.

I ran Track in High School and a 3:42.66 Mile is insane.

Especially for a white boi.

Jesus. That's a sub 14 second 100 meter time for a mile straight.

@mattLondon4131302 ran 4:36 at 6'0 and 206lbs.

The twink in the OP probably weighs 130lbs which makes it not count.

Good job. You're somewhat learning.. He was around 165 though...

And yeah to me it doesn't count.... Not legit... Fake record.. Fake event.. Fake height and weight correlation.......... It just comes down to somehow sports evading me.. Something in that terminology..> ETC... Not making a fucking penny and setting all of these unofficial WRs that nobody gives a fuck about and at the same time looking hot as fuk...

Yet again he might have all that steroid residue on him from the UK now.. The UK has a steroid infestestation problem since they legalized it.. Just touching a door now over there would probably lead to somewhat a higher test level where the previous steroid user touched a door.. This guy looks natural though... I don't see the 3D shoulder or any type of enlarged inner shoulder varicose vein... Looks like all hard work.. But still a scam overall due to previous said statements....

Yeah it breaks 56.00...... By a bit...

1:52's by 2..... broke that by a bit too.

The fucked part about it though is the 99 time if that guy would have ran with the shoes they run with now would have ran about a 3:40.93... LOL...... I made fun of them on LetsRun for 13 years straight since 2013 for not being able to break this WR...

It took them a scientifically designed shoe, which took 2 seconds off the time, and a full 27 years later just to break it.. Combined with tracks that give about a 1 second differential in times due to being made harder now to create more bounce.....

So add in the track factor of 1 second and that 99 time of 3:43 goes to 3:39.93.......

I mean good effort though.. But the 99 guy is WAY faster....
