    I was watching the final at work in a dead silent office. When he kicked it in the last stretch and took the lead, I couldn’t help but yell and startle everyone around me. One of the best American races since Billy Mills! American heros🙏

      I agree. I really think Billy Mills deserves more hype.

    As a U.S. citizen that is a runner and watched the Olympic 1500 I lost my voice from cheering that race. Keep in mind I was watching on a TV

    Beautiful video - Id like to add Cole is a class act. Saw him at a bar in Blacksburg (TOTS) and genuinely seemed like a good dude - took pictures and even took time to ask about my running background as well as my family. This was AFTER the gold medal mind you. There's has been no better time to be an American mid distance fan than today, the future is blinding bright..

    I knew after Olympic Trials running 3:30, then during Olympic semifinals running 3:31 and 3:32 seemingly jogging last 20 meters, Cole and Yared could not be counted out of the 1500 meter medal hunt. Of course Jakob and Josh are great runners too.
    Everyone knew with Kerr’s kick that Jakob would have to take it out fast and not relent. I was screaming as Cole kicked on inside.
    With Cole, Yared and Hobbs Kessler the Americans are a force to be reckoned with.

    I was convinced he had a chance after the Olympic qualifiers. I can't stop telling people about how I put $40 on him and won $800 at the Olympics
