Man bun distance runners are dangerous. Remember that.

[@LT9456]

About a 57 last lap, crazy close!

@Baum Squad that aint slow. this is high school, these are solid times!!

[@urmom-cm5mx]

@Baum Squad whats a good time for state?

[@carolinewall3678]

@Baum Squad The only state thats going to consistently hit 4:05 at states is Cali.

[@Starstrike21]

unreal how this man doubled up 32 and 16

[@Jordan-yw1qy]

ik it’s 6A but guy named william boyce won the 32 16 and 800 in 2021 in 3A and did so wearing sunglasses and looking like he barely tried

[@ethan.wroblewski]

I just raced in divisionals ( state qualifier) this weekend for the 1600 in montana, and the dude that won it is named ignatius Fitzgerald ran a 4:15, and he probably might run under that next week for state. It was a wild race for sure. I got a 4:54😂😂💀

[@theguythatlikestoaskquesti9583]

even if you didnt win, a 4:54 is insane. ik this is 11 months ago, have u improved your time?

[@jacobdorsch4568]

@@theguythatlikestoaskquesti9583 it’s really not that fast for a high school runner

[@ryanlewis9416]

4:54 wouldn’t even get you passed sub districts. In my sub districts you need to run 4:30 or faster to qualify(usually my team sweeps the league though💀) and districts you need to be 4:20 or faster so 4:54 is meh

Nice to see the race but the description should include the date. This was two weeks ago.

I'm a freshman and I run a 5:15 rn. I'm gonna try and break 5 during track season.

Did you break it? I'm currently nearing the end of my track season I'm in 8th grade and my hest rn is a 5:12 mile

Why the crap are the commentators whispering throughout the race, this why sometimes distance running gets a bad rep

[@leonbrown3908]

Ba-bleepin-loney! IF distance running sometimes gets a bad rep, it damn sure AIN'T because the commentators are whispering.

[@arogueburrito]

@@leonbrown3908 these guys sucked at commentating

[@richcheckmaker9789]

This says heat 1 and it looks like a heat race not going all out so I don't think this is for the title.

Admittedly, I skipped till the end, but was the commentator also fatigued by then?

The winner must improve the running position, but certainly has a great physical condition.

[@centeot]

I hate it when people run ‘strategic races’ just to win. Like i get the point, but at the same time, the whole reason that running is so different from other sports is you get to show up and just kill yourself and the most pain wins. This just defeats the purpose if you save yourself so you can walk away with a medal

[@aidansunbury9341]

These times are pretty soft by California standards

Called an elimination mile. They happen sometimes in random televised meets

[@tylerbilyard1896]

I ran in one of these last week in the mile , after 800 someone got eliminated and also after 1200. Everyone was so afraid of getting eliminated that we went through 800 in 2:00, then I finished with a time of 4:13. First time an elimination mile has happened in the uk

Sticking your arm out to try to block the guy isn't going to work, kid. Try more speed instead.
