Men’s 5000m Final - 2023 NCAA indoor track and field championships

[@MyzelleJenkins]

Drew Bosley’s stache weighed him down to 3rd

[@Davbaldwin1]

Great race by Dylan and Casey. Both had great kicks at the end. Looking forward to their match up in the 3K.

[@AnngTV3]

Holy shit all they can blab about is the altitude

[@Jamochashakenbake]

13:50 “in these conditions” 🙄 bro they’re indoors.. what’s the obsession with altitude here??

[@davidrosenthal5795]

@@Jamochashakenbake I agree the lady especially is horrible but you do know indoors or outdoors the altitude is a factor. Just don’t need to say it 73 times.

[@jlibman4889]

And to follow up with this, it’s also so important because (at least from my experience) the indoor 5k is way harder than the outdoor 5k so I can imagine that altitude plus indoor track running was crazy hard on some of those athletes

[@matteorizzo788]

@@Jamochashakenbake so altitude doesn't matter when your indoors? lmao nice physics

[@csumner9134]

Thank God for Mute!

[@dylanthroop6394]

Jacobs looked like he didn’t even try until the last lap

[@kashmirfunk4eva]

The announcers made it through the whole race without mentioning a lap split once...

[@dylandixon4058]

In partial defence of them, it wasnt like they were racing for a fast time. I actually enjoyed the announcers but to each their own

[@frankgrimeson]

The female announcer is the absolute worst. Drives me nuts in all of the distance videos. Nobody wants to hear her recite stats and facts and stories about other races. Watch the damn race you're commentating on. I wish they could ger Kara Goucher for these.

Love watching Bosley run, Jacobs has some pretty relaxed form tho doesn’t even look like he’s trying

[@Tiburon876]

It's ALL about the RUNNING FORM..the techniques.. and breathing coordination..yo can see him at work

[@luispalacios7412]

By far Jacobs the most relaxed beautiful form it reminds me El G form.

[@jordanross634]

Jacobs was so smooth. Stoked for Clinger getting the runner-up finish. He closed well.

[@williamsmith1451]

I guess the altitude got to the Stanford runners, but Dylan Jacobs looked effortless, I wouldn't be surprised to see him win in the 3k too!

[@Tiburon876]

Altitude training is above the cut

[@yesno9374]

I agree they didn't seem to fare well! But Tennessee isn't at altitude, right? Plus the Stanford boys have altitude tents so the chance to do well was still there :)

Worth "CRYING" FOR...I'm confident he has given back to the GENERATIONS..THANK YOU BILLY

[@chongwong8202]

Good to see Clinger up there again

[@jazandriz]

Amazing to win at altitude like that. Respect

[@dmanthei]

Casey doesn't get the credit he deserves. He is definitely one of the top ten runners in the country today. It just seems commentators never talk about him as much as they do with others.

[@Foration3]

He's 24 years old, that's pretty old for being in college, and compare it to the other runners who are both younger, have faster times, and better achievements. He's been in college for 7 years now and this is his highest placement, that's not very impressive to me. There's nothing wrong with it, but I personally think it's kind of cheesy for NCAA athletes to do that. Casey will get the credit he deserves when he shows it.

gutsy race from Bosley and Young but Jacobs is in monster fitness. Young will have his day.

Indeed. The question is which Young…

RAD to see a NON-'altitude' guy win...sometimes it's all about attitude ;-)

[@blessed4747]

I would've loved to see the other finishes

[@ram3621]

Plus they did mention the fast split in the women's DMR because it was so impressive. A tepid lap split doesn't add to the commentary

[@kenallen4175]

Smooth runner that Jacobs is

[@CalvinHikes]

That looks like a run others would enjoy but I would not.

[@awesomeperson7782]

Announcers are biggest bosley glazers

[@Corrigendama]

LETS GO CASEY

[@jefft6802]

Well done Jacobs!!! I noticed one of the lapped runners using common sense by running in the outer (second) lane towards the finish line so they wouldn't interfere with the progression of the leading runners of the race. Why can't the NCAA utilize common sense and implement a simple rule for lapped runners to run in the second lane? It's not rocket science were dealing with here. Geesh.

[@jasiahrainer1366]

Love the word altitude

[@sarmato1]

The guy in red bounding by during warmup at 8:03

[@jeffreykicia6534]

She needs, the announcer to halt speaking and give the damn splits! My best @ altitude in Colorado was a 14:01.84. A 13:37.59 is hauling and flying indeed.

[@alexanderlambourne7350]

So glad that none of the “altitude” runners won this. Useless commentators

[@ak8990]

I guess when the course is flat and you are just seeing a bunch of guys run around for several laps, there was nothing else for the commentators to talk about. 😂😂 but you are correct, it was super annoying!

[@Tiburon876]

What a class act .. demeanor...if only STEVE PREFONTAINE could have learned FROM you..he was the COMPLETE OPPOSITE..

Grad school does that when the major demands more.

[@baumsquad222]

@@donshields2379 it’s more of the COVID years than grad school at this point. Jacobs won Footlocker in 2017 and he’s still competing as a collegiate.

[@donshields2379]

@@baumsquad222 so, Covid was one year. You can redshirt, redo a season due to injury. I believe you get four years of eligibility. I thought your comment was about them still being in college. I didn't see where you said still competing. If you enter college at age 18 you typically will be done by age 22 if you have all the required credits. If your short credits you be a bit older. Then if you go to grad school it is longer or med school. Typically by then you have used up eligibility.

[@docpj72]

Clinger is born in '98-a 2 year BYU mission and an extra COVID year will do that!

Maybe practice saying deoxygenated before trying it out the first time on TV

[@LifeupNinjaTeam]

Man… cut her some slack. Also, it doesn’t take a genius to figure out that most of commentary on sports broadcasts are obviously improved, due to what’s happening in the race live. I guess we’re all not allowed to occasionally mispronounce a word. Maybe practice being a more perceptive person.
