Collegiate record, 5K outdoors: Henry Rono 13:08 in 1978. Record remained unbroken for 44 years. Abdi Nur (NAU) broke it in 2022 with a 13:06. Graham Blanks (Harvard): 13.03.78. Indoors. Fifty-seven days ago. Nico Young (NAU) today: 12:57.14
nico young masterclass He will be one of the greatest american distance runners ever by the end of his running career.He's been incredibly consistent and competitive in his transition from NP to NAU.This is nearly 100% gonna be his greatest College outdoor season yet,he is in record-breaking shape and it's only January.
@@user-ei3hf8st7g you know most collegiate athletes can run sub 14 nowadays right? Why is it always about you or me? I’m not 25 anymore so I ain’t running 14mins anytime soon, but that doesn’t mean the standards haven’t changed … Sign of the times, it’s called human progress
Track is not currently a sport a lot of people simply enjoy watching. They need a title like such to attract more viewers. Additionally, if you were really a fan, you would have already seen the results before watching the video or watched it live.
That track is very bouncy the time likely aided at least by 4 sec per mile. The combination of bouncy tracks, no wind resistance and shoe technology has made an illusion that runners are much better than decades ago
lol yes, a lot of it is due to shoe tech, training methodologies, altitude ability, but why does that invalidate that runners are truly better now? The shoes, the better training surfaces, the careful measured training, the altitude, that is what makes them all better than before.
You can't compare indoor to outdoor. The tighter turns negate the wind resistance. Running indoor is way tougher than outside. You have no fresh air. Shoes probably help. The new training philosophies are why this new generation is better though. Back then coaches were dead set on more mileage equals faster times. It doesn't work that way.
@@esgee3829 I have, he is more relaxed here than almost any race. He has come so far especially since highschool. Learn more about his form / how relaxed he used to be before striking back. Looks way better than before
@@esgee3829 I would also consider that relaxation does not matter in a race. You are meant to push yourself to the end as hard as possible. While form is important, Nico has always looked like this but has improved with time.
How do you set a record and not even win the race? Is the other guy not in college or something? Honestly Nico looked like he was dying his arm form looked bad to me. That short kid Adrian flew past him and it looked effortless. Nico looked like he was passing a kidney stone while leaking a hemorrhoid with his arms flailing.
I wouldn't be surprised to find out that Nico is blood doping. Nobody improves his time like that from last year without blood doping. Just impossible. I hope they are testing him
Incredible that the 5k NCAA record went down 9 seconds since the start of indoor season. First Blanks, now Young.
And now the thirteen minute barrier has been broken by a collegiate runner.
Diff level of peds we are witnessing
@@casanjt8515nah just hard work (i hope)
@@ajlecs7932 It's a new track at BU as well, I think?
Young is the NCAA GOAT for sure

BU short track. Let's see how many of these guys go faster outdoors or on another indoor track

imagine running a 14 minute 5k and getting last place
Nowadays 14mins 5k is pedestrian

It is called "relatively speaking". It is understood that it is not pedestrian or common for everyday runners to run that fast.@@user-ei3hf8st7g
Sub 4:20 in high school just isn’t that fast
Wow.....hella fast. World class fast. Congrats on the record, Nico.
And thanks for posting the entire race, FT.
Watching this over a coffee from Sydney, Australia.
What a great event. Good atmosphere and encourage.
Great racing.
the last two laps had me at the edge of my seat
poor Ky Robinson not locked in trying to find a spot on the start line. He will be alot more competitive at NCAAs.
Needs to man up.
@@4ndy123 you can speak when you have been in races of this caliber and outperformed Ky. Please refrain from making your foolish jealousy so obvious.
@@nelz2012ky Robinson pack is it gas or what?
Absolutely terrific! Sub-13 indoors!
I think it would be awesome if Nico can hold onto that fitness all season and be in the mix for the Olympic team come June
defintely has
nailed it
Perfect tactical race, Adrian. Bliksem se good run, boet! Well done.
Saw Lex Young make a cameo appearance at 15:17
u mean leo
Amazing time! Congrats Nico!!!!
Great job Nico!
He's blood doping. Impossible to improve his time like that from last year
@@gracentruth3844 if we knew the full truth we would not have a lot of heroes.
@@gracentruth3844 Look a little beyond your shortsighted accusations
Thanks for paying the race. I love Nico.
my glorious pookalicious nico young has done it again 😌🙏🏾
Adrian representing South africa
SA to the world 🎉 🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦
Goat talk😤😤
Nico broke the collegiate record! First time a collegiate runner has broken 13!
Woah flotrack didn’t post this ten years later? They’re getting better (no they’re not fuck flo track)
Go South Africa!
Adrian the sleeper no more! 🔥
I think the headline should show the winner first, just polite
I agree but they’ll get more views the way they did it
Nico Young broke the NCAA record, while Adrian is a pro.
So awesome !
Absolutely awesome for Nico.
When did Brian Go to tracksmith?
Great racing, strong runners all 🍺
Can someone explain to me why everyone's lauding the guy who came second instead of the winner? I'm obviously missing something.
he broke the collegiate record.
Still in college
When he won he shushed us all. So we are respecting his wishes
Thank you
Well done, Andrew and Brian
There should be some rules for indoors for lapped runners. They impede on those who want to pass.
Wow this is amazing 🎉
congrats to Nico
i like ur profile pic
the winner not even breathing heavy when he finishes so insane
Reminds me of Steve prefontaine can’t forget the LEGEND !
👏👏 Sincere congratulations! I hope without doping)
NICOS BACK!!
Congratulations
Nico 🚀💉😎👌
Yes! 👍
First time seeing Ky Robinson not in the front pack
nico for olympic team
How can we watch live?
My former coach at USF Bob Braman at the finish
he rans .3 milliseconds faster than my 3k pr 😂
1 round how many meter
The celebratory shushing is getting cringe. It's not that serious 😂
I’m confused!! Why focus so much on Nico yet Adrian is the clear winner? Huh??🤔
He's a collegiate while others are all pros, that's why
Dude's a pro and he's shushing the college student he just beat? K.
Ok but can they stop doing the "shushing" gesture winning. Who you shushing or is there beef everywhere?
I know I find it so weird. Just win with some class.
Yeah if you're going to boast at least do something cool and not cringe
I don’t understand. How did Nico get the record when Adrian was faster than him?
The other dude isn’t in college I think he’s a pro running with college runners
@@Hunkonly6678 This is mainly a pro race. Nico and a few other college studs are scattered in there too though
love how wilds tucks in like a coward instead of going for time then gives the hush sign. cute
Видно какую то новую фарму придумали с 13 мин.выбегают как добрый день.
Nico ALWAYS has another gear.
this is absolutely ridiculous! the first 3 finishers UNDER 13 minutes??? stop it! just cut it out!! leap year power baby!!
. Ceres se King
Saffer’s looking sharp . Going to be interesting seeing what he can do as a full time pro
Please stop putting the result as the title........
Get over it.
Track is not currently a sport a lot of people simply enjoy watching. They need a title like such to attract more viewers. Additionally, if you were really a fan, you would have already seen the results before watching the video or watched it live.
@ayeeffvee8173 Agree with everything you said except your last sentence
Hulle weet nie wat ons weet nie!
who is bro shushing?
That track is very bouncy the time likely aided at least by 4 sec per mile. The combination of bouncy tracks, no wind resistance and shoe technology has made an illusion that runners are much better than decades ago
Runners are better than decades ago. Advanced training, better shoes, better coaches etc. its not an illusion
Boomer moment
Go race Nico Young on that track, see what happens
lol yes, a lot of it is due to shoe tech, training methodologies, altitude ability, but why does that invalidate that runners are truly better now? The shoes, the better training surfaces, the careful measured training, the altitude, that is what makes them all better than before.

The new training philosophies are why this new generation is better though. Back then coaches were dead set on more mileage equals faster times. It doesn't work that way.
young doesn't look as relaxed as in that workout posted from a couple days ago, but hey...record
Nah really? Becuase it’s 3k more than that. And it’s at a faster peace even when converted so I wonder why
@@sunnygames4948 consider what his coach is guiding towards and how he did. then reconsider comment.

Ahoi say Adrian won not Nico mxm
Did you have to ruin it by putting the results in the title?
Nico young loved the YOUNGER girls on high school…. Y’all have no idea and probably don’t wanna know…
Lol
Woody is done......
Woody washed
Why is Nico in the thumbnail? He didn’t even win!!! This track shouldn’t be legal.
He broke the collegiate record, that’s why
I wouldn't be surprised to find out that Nico is blood doping. Nobody improves his time like that from last year without blood doping. Just impossible. I hope they are testing him
Upyers.
Don’t know about blood doing, but a lot of younger athletes last year were caught on a number of doping programs
I doubt anyone has ever gone sub 13 without doping
Look a little beyond your shortsighted accusations
Nico Young is training in Flagstaff Az. running for NAU and a good coach , all the runners for NAU are well taking care of .
New drugs in town…
Friend on a level🫶
