INSANE! Scottish Girl Breaks Mile Record Easily

[@rapier1954]

Let us be clear Laura Muir set a new British Record that had stood for 38 years not a new World Record. The title could be misleading. Her time is the third fastest indoor ever.

[@richardbowman6305]

Exactly! She ran a fantastic time but don't elevate the data!

[@birtybonkers8918]

Right! A great run, but a very misleading presentation.

[@johnwilson6707]

[@georgecooke9010]

CLARITY IS REQUIRED, THANK YOU.🤔

[@i-churchcafe9136]

Yeah, not really

[@Aquineth]

The thing I always find myself raving about at this level of running is the technique. It’s the technique and the maintenance of that technique that makes the difference in my opinion, especially over middle and long distance. Laura has a beautiful running technique. If you look at Laura in slow motion compared to all the other runners you can see she never over extends her muscles. Her legs never fly out behind her, her weight is centred, her back is straight, her arms are always maintaining balance. It’s absolute efficiency and it gives her the edge to win. It’s not easy to do that. You have to be so disciplined to maintain that form especially at the end when your body is screaming at you to stop, but Laura does it regardless of the pain. What a champion she is!

[@sharongillesp]

It’s technique AND body structure. She seems to have the body structure of leading African competitors . And I can bet you … she put in quite a few HOURS watching the BEST African competitors’ form, technique and daily discipline.

[@giffysstiffy887]

Muir is GREAT🙂People need to watch other female greats such as Mia Brahe-Pedersen, Kennedy Smith, Victoria Cameron and Aria Pearce 😎🥳🙂

[@giffysstiffy887]

🥳😎Male runners to check out are Dylan Randall, Cole Beck, Brody Buffinton, Camden Capehart (Capehart is a great sprinter and Football player like Cole Beck is)🙂😎Also...people should check out professional dunkers Jordan Kilganon, Donovan Hawkins and Mac McClung....they don't get promoted by the loser media either

[@vzeq24]

Yes, she's running very efficiently. You run well when your legs become springs and makes you advance effortlessly. But the Pacer is the most efficient runner out there. She attacks the track with her legs perpendicularly ( no effort).

This video needs context. This race was on 16 February 2019: kzbin.info/www/bejne/h2bLmnyHbLqFbM0 Quoting from the Wikipedia article on Laura Muir, she "broke the 31-year-old British indoor mile record held by Kirsty Wade by more than five seconds, stopping the clock at the world third-fastest time of 4:18.75 at the Birmingham Indoor Grand Prix. She was 1.61 seconds short of a European record." The Wikipedia aticle on Scottish records says that Jemma Reekie holds the current Scottish women's indoor mile record of 4:17.88, set on 8 February 2020 at the Millrose Games in New York City: kzbin.info/www/bejne/n6a0eZSQaZaqeqc Laura Muir holds the current Scottish record for an outdoor mile, 4:15.24, set on 21 July 2023 at Stade Louis II, Monaco. This is the same race where Faith Kipyegon of Kenya set the current women's world record of 4:07.64: kzbin.info/www/bejne/kGaXiqesq7KAndE As noted at 4:20 in this video, the women's World Indoor Record (WIR) for 1 mile is 4:13.31. It was run by Genzebe Dibaba (Ethiopia) at Stockholm on 17 Feb 2016: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aXa7f5Kaj6xjmJY

[@Averageskill]

What tends to break my heart is the "laboring" in her face on the final 2 laps. IMO, a woman's body is not for this. She has vital organs for reproduction down there taking a pounding every step. The male body has none of that (except 2 clanking balls) and seems designed for this type of work. I love women sports...golf is my favorite to watch...soccer, swimming, diving, skiing......But basketball, tennis....and especially track....anything that completely exhausts you?

Are you honestly too lazy to do some research? Also, are you aware that this is from 2019?

[@boomshankah1123]

This is the Scottish national record set in Birmingham in 2019 , when Laura Muir was 26 years-old, and definitely not a GIRL. The indoor world record is 4:13 seconds and this is about 5 seconds slower at 4:18.

​@@boomshankah1123Yeah, they keep referring to soccer and rugby playing men as 'boys' as well... So crazy...

Excellent video

I have to admire the pace girl, sorry forget her name, but she has been blessed with an amazing body, the legs, the torso & arms are all in sync and beautiful to watch flow. I have memories as a young teenager running cross country races & feeling I was floating over the rough ground we ran, that's what she brings back to mind, that effortless flow. Not taking anything away from the Scottish girl, stunning. Cheers

I agree with you fully... watching her full extension of her legs...so smooth.

This woman is literally a shooting star. Her abilities here are awesome.

I have the utmost respect for this lady, please mention she is a women athelite and maybe one day she will be the first female to break the 4min mile. I now see the world record is down to 4min 7.64 sec, set in 2023. Ver ver well done Laura Muir. Mens record is 3:34.13 sec set on July 7, 1999.

[@DanSimmons-s2f]

Notice how the description doesn't say what record she breaks. It's not even anywhere near the world record if this is what you are expecting!

[@7henke7]

Do you practice being a twat or does it come naturally 🤔

[@michaelbishop6159]

Great job Laura, keep pushing.

[@highlanderthegreat]

that guy is a sort of misinformed , most BOY high school state and runner ups run right around 4:20 and that time is no where near 4 min flat or better

[@od1452]

Amazing Laura . Great job. Until a year ago , I thought only African runners had a chance of breaking running records. I'm glad I was wrong.

[@johnharris3335]

4 minute mile pace is INSANE!! In the military, running

[@crhu319]

Military ain't wearing that little and their shoes aren't that good. 😂

[@DwightStJohn-t7y]

@@crhu319 yup. you run in military issue Army boots.

I had to lay down after watching this young lady. Amazing. Also admire and respect all the other runners.
