  • My running career has been full of many highs and lows but this has to be one of the best moments so far! To be able to call myself a World Record Holder in the sport that I love is honestly such a big honour. Don't get me wrong though this isn't all I've got the 1500m training has been pushing me from strength to strength and I'm very excited to where the next few years will take me!
    Thank you to the amazing event organisers of the Kö MEILE go check out their social channels and website if you want to get involved for yourself next year!

    I feel like Giles' biggest strength is his mindset. How many guys could have his run-up to the Olympics (initially not selected for the team, falls down twice, etc) and end up breaking a WR the same season. Even at the end of the video he's talking about going after the 1500m WR someday! That kind of confidence is amazing - I love to see it.

    Dude go easy on yourself, you dropped Nuguse an Olympic medalist! 3:51 for a road mile is awesome. Sure the track mile is a bit quicker, but a track gives you more. A 3 second world record is still very impressive. Well done!

    Fabulous race, congratulations! One of the founders of this event is a well-known middle distance runner in Germany, Maximilian Thorwirth. He missed the Olympia qualifying time for the 5k in Paris by only 5 seconds. He is the one leading the pack on the bike during this race.

    As for you not knowing where the finish line was, seems like a bit of an oversight for them to arrange this whole event and not have a ribbon at the line. Unless that's normal for these 1 mile races?

    You couldn't write the script , could you! Elliot can look back on his previous 800s as speed training. Seriously though, being able to pace himself through the finish line against Yared of all people bodes well for the future. As for karma, he was able to pay back Nuguse in Zurich as pacemaker when Yared beat Ingebrigtsen. Good luck in Brussels!

    To be considered for a World Road Record, a road race must meet the following criteria:
    Course measurement
    The course must be measured by an AIMS/World Athletics approved measurer.
    Start and finish
    The start and finish points must be no more than half the distance of the race apart.
    Elevation
    The elevation drop between the start and finish must be no more than 1 meter per kilometer.
    Course validation
    The original course measurer must confirm that the course run was the same as the measured course.

      @GrimeyShark 8 днів тому +2

      Errr no that is crazy…

    • @archiechesler439
      @archiechesler439 6 днів тому

      @@GrimeyShark Not only is 3:25 another league...it's never been done before so there is no "league". Not even the greatest 1500 m runner of all time, Hicham El Guerrouj, broke 3:26 with his world record sitting at 3:26.00. Very remote chance we see a 3:25 this Friday in Brussels, more likely a 3:26 or 3:27. I do think we'll see a 3:25 in the next 1-2 years though. Not sure which athlete will do it though with the 1500 m being so deep these days.
