    Yared is 100% right here. Front-running probably cost him a bit, and maybe cost him the race, but it was CLEARLY the right strategic call when all that matters is getting on the podium. There was no way in hell 3 guys were beating him at a 3:30 pace. I am very happy he made that race honest, and it also helped expose just how deep our 1500m pool is. 8 guys under the meet record! 6 guys 3:32 or better! A 3:31.7 didn't even qualify! That's insane.

    Good strategy- he knew if he ran 3:30 he wasn't getting beat by three other guys. Goal is to make the team.

    For all these people in the comments - if you know anything about the *real* life of these athletes, his talents PLUS attitude are a unique combo that will set him up FAR beyond life on the track; a healthy attitude + winning ability. If you want to be a "dawg" and fuel the fight with the ego, you face a whole other set of issues after sport is done. Yared is in a unique position to do it RIGHT. This interview is so telling = Big win for his athletic career, bigger win setting the stage for life &sport. IYKYK.

    It was the right strategy for Nagus today but come Olympics Nagus and Ingenbrigsten really need to be running 3:26/3:27 if they are going to dust Hocker and Kerr at Olympics.

    Yared. The Olympics come by every 4 years. You need to be mean or you'll miss your chance. Lose the wingman attitude and seize the moment. Leave it all on the track. Good luck.

      He has to run his race. That is not his style. As you can see with this race, it didn't work out for him. He should hang tight as normal and kick towards the end. He is not a lead runner.

      @@kpat3052 and what I’m saying is that Yared had a very sound strategy to make the team. That’s the goal here. This is not Olympic final, so there’s no need to go for the win and miss out on the team. There were only two guys in that field capable of running 3:30 right now. Maybe Hobbs, but certainly no one else. There were 8 to 10 mile an hour winds and he was probably the only one willing to do the work to lead. Either way, neither Yared, nor Hocker will be leading any part of the Olympic final.
