Lex Young Runs

[@jacobfaughtrunningproducti974]

I'm convinced that we are witnessing the rise of the greatest American distance runners of all time all on one team

[@hewittcrosscountry6592]

Oh for sure

[@biguzivert]

Rise? They already are.

[@sqtoquickforu9429]

Haven’t seen my team yet just w8

[@summerlakephotog8239]

Ingebrigsten was there. These are world class runners. Can’t emphasize this enough. Lex is a high school junior.

[@johnwest7993]

Indeed.

[@richardmilliken8705]

Yes & Coach Brosnan has turned them from good H.S. Runners into Great Runners. When you compare what Ryun, Lindgren, Virgin, Hulst and Pre did roughly 50-55 years ago, the Young & Sahlman brothers have already surpassed them in XC & the 2 mile & 5K times. Other than Hobbs Kessler's 1500 meter H.S. Record, all of the other H.S. records could be broken by the Young brothers who are now entering their senior year in H.S. Even the younger Sahlman is now entering his senior year and he has a shot at the 800 meter H.S Record.

[@terranchow5949]

I didn’t realize that ingebrigsten was there until just now lol. That’s absolutely craY

[@nateh9917]

Got to watch this live! I predicted 13:50ish beforehand, but seeing Lex run 13:43 shocked me anyway. #2 HS all time behind only Galen Rupp is incredible, and as a junior is even more insane!!! Lex is now #2 in the 3k and 5k, and I'm super excited to see what he's gonna do the rest of this season, and what they'll both do next year. Seeing a JUNIOR run faster than Lindgren AND Ritz did as seniors really shows how much hard work you guys have been putting in, and I'm glad we're able to see you guys document it. It wasn't even possible when Ritz/Rupp were running, and definitely not when Lindgren was. Seeing what you guys are doing has really inspired me to get back into running this summer, I got out of the habit in the last year when I went to college, but I'm getting back into it. Thank you guys for your videos and good luck Lex this summer and good luck to Lex and Leo in crushing records next year :)

If we put a 1964 H.S. Runner-Gerry Lindgren into a time machine and sent him to 2022, with all of the new technology in training, running shoes, mundo tracks, nutrition, altitude training, sports psychologist, and trained by Newbury Park Coach- Sean Brosnan, Gerry would be running a 13:18 5K & 8:20/2 mile & 3:55 mile.

[@averageenjoyer1690]

@@richardmilliken8705 You don’t know that nor will we ever know. Please stop doubting young athletes.

[@richardmilliken8705]

@@averageenjoyer1690 The fact that Gerry Lindgren ran an 8:40 indoor 2 mile on a wooden floor track that was 11 laps to a mile and ran a 13:44 5K on a cinder track tells me all that i need to know as far as Gerry blowing the doors of the Young Brothers with no problem what-so-ever! With the new carbon plated running shoes and the super fast mondo tracks and modern training & nutrition, only god knows how much faster Gerry would run in 2023? This not an attack on the modern day high school runners. They simply are not in the same league as Jim Ryun & Gerry Lindgren! Their incredible performances during the 1960s, (roughly 60 years ago) will never be matched when you put them in a time machine to 2023 with their god-given talent and their ability and mental toughness to train harder than any High School Middle & Long Distance Runner to this current day. Hobbs Kessler, Steve Prefontaine, Lukas Verzbicas, and Alan Webb are the only H.S. Runners that are in the same league as Ryun & Lindgren.

He was actually asked about the Newbury Park runners after the race. This quote would seem arrogant and condescending if it came from almost anyone else: "13:40, 13:20, that's nothing in the bigger picture. But it's a good step in the right direction."

[@tedlasalvia9668]

+ 1 subscriber - As a 61-year-old man, watching your L&L videos gets my blood pressure up - so now, I'm going to lace up my shoes and go out for a run on this hot day! I wish all the best for all of you (you and your brothers) as it's great to see the future of track and field is in good hands! It will be a joy to follow your racing exploits in the future!

[@biguzivert]

To put this in perspective with another very talented runner, Jakob ingebringston ran 13:35 5k at 16

[@NoNoWeb]

Jakob has been running professional since he was 8, so it’s as much of a show of his talent as his hard work and dedication.

Love the videos guys. I’ve improved so much just since I’ve been watching y’all.

[@martydobbins5071]

Great job by Colin, Lex and Nico. Cool behind the scenes view. Hope Lex can go sub 4 in the next few weeks.

[@Zephyr653]

OMG! Nico’s 13:11 is only 17 seconds off Lagat’s US 5k record. I can’t imagine competing against Jakob, the world’s best distance runner! Lex’s 13:43 5k as a junior is even more impressive. I hope the Young boys stay healthy and grounded because what each is accomplishing is truly incredible. Don’t let mind-blowing expectations prevent you from enjoying HS/college experience. NP community is very proud of all you have accomplished. VERY optimistic about a renaissance with US middle distance running!!

[@grantkoehnen2114]

Is Colin’s mile at the pre classic gonna be vlogged?

[@lucaswalsh677]

please that race is gonna be stacked

[@DuckosXc-Tf]

Pls Pls Pls

[@psyso-cleanedits8953]

Colin's 1500 was on pace for a 3:55 mile/3:54 1600. Alan Webb's mile record is 3:53 which he set at the pre classic also and it was a huge pr for him. If colin shaves off a few seconds, which I'd say is very possible, he could have the record, especially since the prefontaine is such a huge event with so many great runners he will have tons of adrenaline and motivation

[@kczcb4697]

I think Lexi and Leo will be at California state championships the same day. Know I’ll be at prefontaine myself. Looking forward to it

[@zakry6444]

Wow, surprised to see Jakob Ingebrigsten there. Anyways, good job boys! Keep up the good work.

[@mizzouluke]

He just wanted to get his qualification for the World Championships so he chose this race to go out and run a sub-13:13 5K. In his interview afterwards, he talked about how he's so competitive he needed to win even though he "could have just stayed back and jogged in under 13:13." Imagine being so fast you could consider that jogging.

Are you guys going to have any opportunities this season to break the new fastest mile record in a high school competition set by Gary Martin in Pennsylvania? He ran a 3:57.98 without a pacer (or any competition) at his league meet, beating Jim Ryun's record set in 1965. Insane. But if anyone can top that it would be one of you, I'm sure.

[@donaldtrump6386]

Either Lex or Leo ran a 4:00:77 in last year's track season so I think one of them could definitely break it
