Finally! We train at the same track as this kid and have been watching him for years. Watch out world!

i've waited too long for TRP to make a Myers video. He's the next Jakob in terms of his times so far.

[@Trackandfield71]

CAM MYERS MENTIONED!!💯💯💯🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@richardmercer2337]

Are you excited?

[@briggsy010]

I’m so happy that you made this video! As an Aussie and a runner, I am a huge fan of Cam’s. I watched this meet live. It was an electric meet and a special race. Cam is the real deal. Watch out Jakob!

[@frauhorn]

It was on this channel a few years ago that I was first introduced to Jakob. The B roll was mostly from age group European Cross Country champs, and the first thing that struck me was how still Jakob was when he was running. Whilst Cam is a different looking athlete with a different gait to Jakob, he does remind me of him with his still, efficient and effortless looking technique.

[@paterson247]

it wasnt 'The fastest 1500 ever on Australian soil' but it was the fastest 1500 by an Australian, on Aussie soil. Thanks for the video!

[@TSVsprint]

The 2024 olympic games is getting super exiting.

[@RogerPack]

Does he have a chance this year?

[@AllInTheGame01]

AUS also has another talented teenager in the W800/1500m in 18yr old Claudia Hollingsworth (1.59.81 & 4.04.45).

[@samashlin3626]

Spot on there we get left out talk about every other countries but Australia

[@Runningfree-ju9cy]

His trajectory, before he turns 18 on June 9 this year, seems to indicate he will run a 3.31 1500M (equivalent 3.48 mile) in probably the Eugene, Oslo or Stockholm Diamond League meets prior to the Paris Olympics. And that may be a quite conservative prediction given a fast track, near-perfect weather and excellent pacing. He still looks a bit raw (expected of course at his age). With continued superb guidance anything is possible for this prodigious talent. What will he do when he’s at his peak at ages 21 to 25?

[@Williamottelucas]

Some would say that the real stand-out performance was from the Aussie commentator!

[@ravciozo7517]

I've been saying that for a year now, but I gotta say it again: Niels Laros vs. Cameron Myers vs. Axel Wang Christensen (vs. Reynold Kipkorir Cheruiyot perhaps) That's the clash we're all waiting for

[@thewalkingjoke3843]

[@andrewd7586]

I watched this live here in Australia & I was blown away, especially at his age! A beautiful runner to watch, he just doesn’t appear to stress or be under duress. Someone to follow for sure.👍🏼😎🇦🇺

[@kellyyager3780]

Just want to clarify - NSW stands for the Australian state of New South Wales. Bankstown is in Sydney NSW

[@adrianplayer-propertyinvest]

Im 36 when i was 16 i moved to a middle distance coach out of the bankstown track. Amazing set up and they have been producing great middle distance runners for 25+ years.

[@Bweyg]

It also amazes me that Cam is also very humble despite being the absolute world class junior u18 athlete, something that I wish I could have seen in Jakob. I'll tell you this, if anyone is going to break 3:40 in the mile and 7:50 in the 2 mile, it's Cam.

[@marcisvijups5544]

My feeling is that he is a very solid talent but its few years too early to expect him to win medals in olympics.

[@Zephyr653]

Meyers will be a beast if he stays healthy and gets top coaching. I’m rooting for the kid to break records

[@Thoth19]

CAM will be the man to beat at 2028 Olympics❤❤❤ HUGE future🔥🔥🔥

[@BreakawayB]

Kid is a *FREAK!* 👏

[@markrutherford6010]

The key to this young guy is not push him too early. At the next Olympics in 2028.He will still be 21 years old. That is when you want him peaking.

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

I agree. If you look at Strava he doesn’t train that hard and doesn’t train or live at altitude. Just with consistency and age he is improving. When he’s older and trains like Jacob he should reach an all time world record peak. That’s the trajectory he is on. He has a great coach and training group.

[@markrutherford6010]

@@J.e.f.f.r.e.y Myers is only 17 years old.I have never seen so much potential so early. He could end up as all time great if managed right.

[@jo_cho]

I do think he is being mature in how he competes/trains. He had the opportunity to represent AUS in the world champs last year but decided against doing so.

[@ricardorgomez]

The thing is... Some people peak VERY early in their careers. There have been plenty of teenagers that were phenoms only to disappear by the time they reach 19/20 years old. You see it in all sports. Katelyn Touohy might have been one of those types but she has just gotten better and smarter as time goes on. She's in her mid-20's now and it's safe to say, she's here to say. I wish Myers the best.

[@midooley543]

Why would it being early in the season make a fast final 400m less likely? I don’t get it

[@benbwaite9858]

Early in the season, most runners want to peak closer to the Olympics

[@dk4232]

He will be trying to peak for Australian nationals in March. I believe the winner will get automatic Olympic selection, not an easy team to make in Australia. That will likely be a race between McSweyn and Myers. Ollie Hoare has not appeared on the Aussie scene yet since injury in 2023. From there if he qualifies I expect he will take some time off racing before the Olympics

give him a 2 month break now. too long till olimpics

[@dk4232]

He has to qualify first. No guarantee in Australia but after that I agree back to base for two months. He has to make it through the rounds at the Olympics too. He'll be more competitive in a stand alone diamond league at his age. I predict he will be run out in the semis at the Olympics

[@victorhopper6774]

@@dk4232 i assume he has been training hard just getting where he is now. who knows but the odds are a small break will be best.

[@dk4232]

@@victorhopper6774 to run at the Olympics his easiest path is to win the Australian Championships probably later this month. That's usually automatic selection if the winner has a qualifier. Considering he is in better form than the other contenders I would save his break until after this race. Plan B is to race well in Europe and impress the selectors. No real chance of a break with that strategy if he is then to run the Olympics

He might have just developed quicker than most adolescents. I hope he doesnt feel the pressure he's being put under
