Who else came here from godspeed

[@PassengerInMortality]

I did. "Godspeed" resolution was so terrible. And I wanted to hear the crowd's reaction.

"Godspeed"

[@MGTOWWARRIOR]

That was a Tight Race, for the 2nd Place....

[@yeehehs428]

When the distance between him and the others got bigger the camera had to pan out until he’s the only one being filmed lmao what a legend

[@Prodribbler360]

He was smart and it paid off. None of the runners saw it coming great job

[@pillettadoinswartsh4974]

"he's trying to feel it on this lap, cuz he knows he doesn't have it next lap." Infamous commentator last-words.

[@ronsasso7832]

That's just perfect. He really faded at the end...like after he crossed the finish line...then he stopped running.

[@mpod_creative]

So no one ever before just tried to run faster?

[@elliotalderson6769]

lol sadly a lot of runners race the event to win, not necessarily to run fast and break records. Very few left who actually put in 100% and perform their peak in a race. It leaves the audience underwhelmed and I even remember a video of fans booing the runners for slowing down to a standstill to let someone else take the lead. No more balls.

[@hawk622]

Elliot Alderson in reality, this is a freak athlete. Considering this is the number 11 of all time for California 1600m finishes and was number 5 at that time(in 1995). Not many people can run a 4:04 1600m and as a junior in high school no less. So, you’re dumb

[@skylersandoval2974]

Why’s that one dude wobbling his head the entire time

[@lorddrac_dontaskmetodance]

Sponsored by Airheads!!

[@coleman6131]

Because he was an arrogant douche bag who didn't know he was about to have his ass handed to him.

[@linkubusam]

One of my favorite races.

[@dantedelgadillo8592]

Holy shit Godspeed!

[@menadionnassertamtama379]

remind me of Sceretariat during Kentucky Derby

[@ORIGINALGAMESONLY]

awesome 3rd lap move held to perfection!

[@billybussey]

I was at this meet and remember that race. The guy that moved his head back and forth always stood out in my memory.

[@NxDoyle]

So, they didn't laugh. They started applauding with 300m to go.

[@yokaigypsy]

Why does that one runner keep shaking his head? Lol.

[@motorflasher]

This is my race! There are many like it, but this one is MINE!

[@crippledcrusader1321]

That’s a smart move to hold back in the first lap. Let everyone else tire themselves out and then let loose.

[@efwaves4665]

Most amazing race I’ve ever seen. Alwaysexpect the unexpectable !

[@jwahhadai8257]

The difference between a college athlete and an Olympic athlete. Michael Stember was phenominal. I remember them replaying this on sport shows for years after.

[@eminiyen4756]

That(!) was intense

[@braxtoncraven5638]

Truly extraordinary preformance

[@kdtrimble]

Good for him.

the difference between 1st and 2nd is the same as 2nd and 6th, it is actually pretty big.
