      I agree. I think it’s becoming clear now that 5k is best for him.

      watching hockers interview it sounds like coopers using the 1500 to build his top end speed for the 5k, and hockers using the 5k for 1500 endurance…they both know their strengths, just helping push each other along the way

      I feel like he’s unfortunately taken a step back from when he was in college. He’s ran 3:50 in the mile twice like 3 years ago. Not sure why he didn’t keep progressing.

    Teare's always getting boxed in, tripped, etc. in these 1500m races. He has a good chance in the 5000m though.

    I believe that if he really committed to his speed and tactics that he can be a world contender in the 1500 although from what he’s shown, this dood is built for the 5. Definitely rooting for this guy and really want him to go to Paris in the 5! 🙏🏼🙏🏼

    Love Cooper but I think he needs to race some more 800m’s if he wants to be a more competitive 1500m runner. 1500m runners nowadays have 1:45 800m speed or faster.

    • @EllingtonCarthan
      @EllingtonCarthan 4 місяці тому +1

      He’s just too nice a guy! You can’t be nice in a 1500m it’s just too fast and cutthroat. There’s a reason Kerr and Ingabrigsen have the personalities they do….They are out for blood every time they step on the track.

      @@EllingtonCarthan Hicham El Guerrouj the World Record Holder never ran a 1:45 or faster, Bernard Lagat the second fastest @1500M runner of all time never ran 1:45 or faster, Jakob Ing the defending Olympic Champion and #1 ranked 1500M runner in the world has never run 1:45 or faster, Yared Nuguse Americas fastest miler and number 2 at the trials has never run 1:45 or faster. With that being said I believe that they are and or were capable of doing so, but it probably would have come at a cost to their training for the almost twice as long event. If anything, we have learned that since the Coe and Ovett years a great miler does not have to be a great 800 man, though it certainly is a great confidence booster. Strength is speed and speed is strength in the world of 1500M competition and how fast you close at the end of a 1500 is much more important than a raw 800 time. In 2004, EL G closed in 1:46 at the Olympic 1500M Final…faster than his open 800M PR.

      He is a good racer in events suited for him. His hubris in regard to the 1500M has been a downfall thus far. The world class 5K pool is full of great runners who aren’t going to have the wheels for the 1500M, Teare falls into that category. Teare is built for the grind, his spectrum doesn’t put him in the class of runners to ever be competitive on the World Stage @1500M. The top 3 at this year’s trials are all suited for the 1500M, there were no surprises on who made the team.
