Love his quote about Jacob - 'He has his critics but I'm not one of them'. Impeccable character - great that he's back at his best with another US record.

[@VARMOT123]

Who are these critics and what do they say ?

[@Socialdawn_1]

@@VARMOT123 they say he's cocky...because he's the best and he knows it

[@Pre1321]

There are a lot of 'bests' across many sports, and many countries. Not many of them act & speak like Jakob and I think that's the criticism. He hasn't had sustained championship results to justify it yet.

[@luispastor8089]

Man, what an articulate guy. I hope he gets a medal in Paris, he looks like a very nice guy

[@trancemaster5009]

I’ve never heard him talk, but after listening, I’ve become a fan. Very classy!! Especially to answer questions about Jakob half the interview.

[@julesdrums6167]

“We ran a few 60s in there with a few laps to go. I think that let us all catch our breath a little bit.” Holy shit man.

[@princehal4500]

Looking forward seeing Grant in Paris. Appreciate his candor. Great ambassador for the sport.

[@peterkooreman7504]

Grant Fisher is always a pleasure to listen to. I look forward to his interviews as much as watching him run. Congratulations, Grant! I believe you have more fans than what you may realize. Best wishes!

[@nenadvasileski4282]

Thank you Grant! Your words are clean true. Very good athlete and such an amazing person. I hope you gonna win medal in Paris. You truly deserve it.

[@benschnurbusch9764]

The fact they casually talk about WORLD records is unbelievable to me.

[@thenofxlagwagon]

That particular record was Mondo in the pole vault. Everyone knows he can break the record by A LOT but he chooses to break it by 1cm every once in awhile just to get the most out of world record bonuses. It’s clever on his part but it’s a little less exciting because of it. He is a few classes above anyone else doing that event and we’ve become jaded seeing him be amazing for awhile now. It’s just expected

[@mccluskey_xyz]

It's so easy to cheer for this kid. Great athlete and personality. Wishing him all the best in 2024.

[@pumagutten]

What a likeable man to listen to! Well done, Grant! Good luck next season!

[@lanagorgeous9485]

Great interview and a very honest interview. Had he been healthy he would have gotten his first world championship level in the 5k. Bronze definitely!

[@JoseStev]

i think he's right about the worlds/olympics being too strung out. They should make them much shorter and run just finals.

[@kevinenglish5460]

Don't know how you can say he would have got bronze.

[@viggostenvard9906]

Really nice guy! Cheers from Norway!

[@jazandriz]

I love that line “we ran a few 60s in there and it let us catch our breath”

[@mikem3789]

Looking forward to seeing the continued success of this young man’s future in track. 👍

[@est099]

First class interview, a credit to his parents and his country.

[@Blitzerino]

My man’s Adams apple is huge

[@J.e.f.f.r.e.y]

Grant did so well!!! Awesome to see him fit and healthy!!!

[@duncanblakey9343]

What a great guy

[@andreasbergmann8780]

Great interview 🤜🏾

[@paulsolon6229]

Well spoken

[@castof1906]

...Such a sympathetic likeable guy. Fun if he beats the Vikings next year. Their cockiness is a bit over the top imho 😎

[@canuckowl]

The Viking brand of cockiness is pretty mild compared to someone like Noah Lyles who runs down the track thumping his chest before the race has even started.

[@mikecsapo9842]

@@canuckowlLyles is just being confident and entertaining. Relax.

[@canuckowl]

@@mikecsapo9842 Arrogance always gets a pass when it is an American doing it...and it almost always is. It's poor sportsmanship that's all. And as for "relax"...I am. Doesn't take much energy to post and opinion on an opinion forum.

[@mikecsapo9842]

@@canuckowlLyles isn’t a poor sport. Listen to his interviews. On the track, he is being showy for entertainment purposes. Bolt did much the same. Not everyone’s cup of tea but it doesn’t mean they don’t respect the other competitors. Getting a pass has nothing to do with being an American.

[@RUNISFAST]

hes never gona beat a jakob ingebrisen now when he is in hes best form.

[@djdiggerjonez4063]

Grant would have got silver if Ahmed didnt trip him in the last 120m of the 5k 😅

[@ccbgaming6994]

@djdiggerjonez4063 Hicham would’ve won a medal in 1996 if he hadn’t of tripped up. It happens, you have to move on and focus on the next step

[@mikecsapo9842]

That’s not what happened. Grant stepped on the rail on his own.

[@jakobskjoldan6935]

Grant would have got bronze if he hadn´t had his rail accident. Krop was already in front of him at that moment.
