Gardiner’s running form is so clean.

[@sub2me543]

Too clean what’s why he keeps getting injured

[@bnsz8704]

So smooth and effortless

[@summerlakephotog8239]

It just jumps out at you. So efficient. So graceful.

[@donovan_99_]

Run like a bad bihh

[@berndtherrenvolk1951]

My two favorite runners to watch style-wise are Gardine and Van Neukirk.

[@blueeyedbull67]

Gardiner's got that Michael Johnson running form. No energy wasted.

[@ronald8792]

Matt just learned how to pace the 300 from one of the Greats in Gardner.

[@efisgpr]

Yep and shaved off another 0.3. Probably will hit 31.1 next time.

[@AllInTheGame01]

Stevie G was not playing! 2nd fastest time in history as his season opener just behind his 31.56 WR ❤‍🔥 🤞 he stays healthy after what happened in Budapest & runs sub 43.5s once again!

[@thomasmiller28]

I wonder what Noah could run in a 300m now. Probably something scary

[@leokashian8846]

I would like to see Fred Kerly try it while he is in shape. e as great 100 speed and 400 endurance.

Letsie Tebogo has similar running style as Steve Gardiner

You're on proper progression schedule Matthew as you learned from running the greatest pure 400m runner in the world in Gardner.The evolution/ revolution that'll have to take place with you will be in your mind as you have,I believe, the talent to make the podium in the Paris finals.You have to have the intent of TAKING IT FROM EVERYONE as yours for NO ONE IN THE WORLD EVER WANTS YOU TO POSSESS IT.

[@MrBluesmeister]

Props to Gardiner for a great performance. The 300 is an oddball race at best, why they even run it is a quandary. The 100, 200, 400, 800 are all the respected distances. Also the outside lane is the most favorable. Had he won from another lane would have been more impressive.

[@turbotaylor6516]

I'm assuming great workout to get you ready for the 200m

[@abbirina]

smooth

[@cz2165]

Do you think they would ever add this distance to Olympic competition? I guess it would be too complicated to schedule between the 100 and 200 and 400 heats they have enough to do.

[@jasonpaulsonrealtorontheru4745]

I’d like to see Karsten Warholm vs Rai Benjamin in an open 300.

[@emp4959]

[@Alexandertygreat]

They need to make these distances official medal distances, every other sport expands in some way or another. Why wont track wake up???? Its good for the sport, for the events and especially for the athletes. The 300 makes so make sense. And yes why not a 600 as well. Lets give more athletes an opportunity to make a living

[@Gardener7]

I would like to see De Grass vs Gardner in this event. I think Gardner would mow down de grasse. 😂

[@Ghoster311]

Gardiner’s own body has been his biggest nemesis.

[@dontaetrowell5011]

The one & ONLY reason I don’t put a lot of stock in this race is because it’s not a standard distance. Meaning everyone doesn’t know how to run it. That being said, that time is undeniable. We might not see a WR in the sprints but I still think we’re gonna get a few freaky times before the year’s over.

[@SPIDERM0OSE]

In reality, Lyles is only the blink of an eye away from Bolts time, its nothing if he has his mind right & of course gets the track n weather conditions required. Kerley is in the mid 9.70s just goofing around trying out the 100m, he too is just a blink of an eye away from Bolt. Never say never.

[@maxb148]

This is the same thing I have said about Jakob woth the 2k and 2 miles last year. They are quick times but I don't think should hold the same merit as a 1500m, mile or 5km record because they are the distances actually being run in competitions

[@y3_38]

Same with the mile

[@TheoOJamaloO1]

​@@SPIDERM0OSEthey are both far away from Bolt lmao

These Guys can Run. I'm a 51 year old white guy. But I can outrun most people 15 years younger than me. I weigh 5 lbs more than when I graduated high school. If someone actually worked a little with Matthew Boling on how to run gracefully, LOOK OUT . He's one of the fastest people in the 🌎. Obviously there's always a guy a little faster. He runs like Forrest Gump.

[@MichaelNelson-rt3du]

I ran a 31.2 300 Meters at Kansas State at a Juco meet and my coach said I can run a 30.1 300 Meters if I worked at it. I ran against Wallace Spearmons Father in Highschool he is very fast too!

If only he could stay healthy this season . still #1

[@motshwari]

Word on the streets is Letsile Tebogo is targeting the 300m world record. He'll be running it on the 17th in South Africa.

[@madmusicman5921]

Boling should keep his focus on the 100m/200m using the 300/400m as speed endurance only........Why his coaches continue to steer him away from his best events is mind boggling.

[@lilcourtny08]

He sucks in both, he never won the 100 or 200 in college.

[@scrumpymanjack]

As soon as you said "300m", I switched off.

[@turbogazar74]

well by now Matt should have known that sprints are not good fit for him indeed other than 4X400 hes not gonna be even ammong the Usa team qulalificants and for me its obvious he is ignoring his bets bet long jump taht its he can easiliy jump around 8m- 30-8m -40 and get medal on any Championship and likely even win especially indoor with those numbers

[@lesmoore3638]

Boling is good. That seems to be it. At present, I'd say he'd be lucky to make an Olympic relay team for the US??

[@vernonfrance2974]

Only three can make the podium. Because most of the top finishers in the individual finals usually don't want to try to do relays as well, that leaves the door open for those a cut below. That's how Boling got two gold medals last year in the men's 400m and the mixed 400 m. There's nothing wrong with that.

[@lesmoore3638]

​@@vernonfrance2974I think that most of the top US runners will certainly want to participate in the Olympic relays. However, with 8 potential spots and possible injuries I feel it's Bolings best chance? He's a fine athlete.

[@HEAVYCHEVY409]

He ain't making no relay team if the do, it's for views to make some people happy, he won't earn the spot

[@lesmoore3638]

​@@HEAVYCHEVY409He'll have to be lucky. Olympic relay team aren't selected for views.

[@vernonfrance2974]

@@HEAVYCHEVY409 I agree with you because there are more top 400 runners who will be willing to run in the Finals of theOlympics than in the World Championships. Also, like what happened in the men's relay World Championships last year Boling and a few others ran in the prelims but not in the final. They still get a gold medal the same as the ones who run in the final. I am merely pointing out that he made the two 400 relay teams last year and got two gold medals. The USA t only won the mixed relay because Fempke Bol fell down just before the finish line and the Netherlands didn't medal as a result.

[@russellziske7385]

Boling is the best

[@MichaelJohnson-wk8tk]

Steven is the truth in the 400. I hope he stays healthy and does his thing in 2024.

[@ndspeedster]

You don't mention the fact that matthew is the fastest white guy of all time

[@y3_38]

Both Noah and gardiner could attack the 300m WR indoor and also outdoor

[@jakemccoy]

The 300 is pointless. The 200 proves top speed endurance. The 400 proves general sprint endurance. The 300 adds nothing. Plus, the 300 would be awkward to setup on an outdoor track. They would have to stagger the straight away and the outside runner would run more turn. It’s a useful training distance. That’s it.

[@xelp435]

The 300mh hurdles are ran in high school

[@butcherofntexas4966]

Boling is best at 200m and long jump.

[@HEAVYCHEVY409]

200m naw, he not even top 5 maybe futher back then that! He should focus on long jump

[@henrik3141]

I would have finished 4th in this race which is quite impressive if you ask me

[@LBNoah316]

Steven G. Hopefully he stays healthy and injury free. Gold 400 2024 Paris Olympics.

[@owlcu]

Sorry, but the only way to know who's fastest is to race in a straight line, not a curved track.

[@grl9917]

In my humble opinion, Matt needs to focus exclusively on the 400.

[@efisgpr]

Just did a 20.12 indoor 200 last year. He's a 200 guy. He can break 19.80 in it this season.

[@lilcourtny08]

​@@efisgprhe never did

[@zutrue]

They just keep on pushing the bolin train. By this time...according to them...he should be the greatest ever. Not this time.

[@bastiat9049]

Doesn't look like Boling is going to be world class competitively as a pro in the 60, 100, 200, 300 or 400. He should just try to improve his long jump or become a decathlete where he could possibly excel at the pro level.
