This is actually a VERY underrated 1500m race. Notice how the first 6 athletes that passed the finish line all ran under the previous Olympic record of 3.31.65.
@@journeymanx219 I know what underrated means 😂 this is the 2021 Olympic 1,500m final which is arguably one of the most stacked fields, the pace was honest from gun to tape, it resulted in an Olympic record of 3:28, about two seconds away from the World record (mind you a decent amount of championship finals are tactical due to the worthiness of achieving a global medal), it featured lone American Cole Hocker who had outstanding indoor and outdoor collegiate seasons (#2 collegian in the mile of all time, and #9 indoor mile of all time) and the winner and runner-up of this final are Jakob Ingebrigsten, who is known for being a track star since he was just a teenager and being the youngest one to break 4 mins in the mile, and Timothy Cheruiyot, who is notorious for taking the field out quick and always makes it honest. This is not an underrated race at all in my opinion!
@@LifeupNinjaTeam oh okay I feel you lmao, well I still think the average person didn’t know about this race because I know I didn’t and that’s all he’s saying I think. is that this race is crazy just like you’re saying so the race deserved to be more recognized than it was. But obviously you know a lot more than I do and I’m not kidding so I was just trying to help out lol
Timothy C is the ballsiest middle-distance runner since Filbert Bayi. Jakob opens with a 56 first lap, so Timothy says fine, and runs the second in 55. He then proceeds to tow nearly the whole field to PRs. In the Olympic final, yet. What a nice counter to the Rio debacle. All hail Timothy Cheruiyot!
Rio, ugh. That race is so bad that it looks staged. Nobody is passing anyone, two 66 second laps. Matt is up front the whole race... like seriously people. At least try harder to make it look organic and not paid for.
Thank YOU Kimberly...congrats to USA and Japan...for the Nike spikes and the perfect track in Olympics history! Also congrats to Kenya and Scotland, though!
Everyone loves the 100m but for me the 1500 and 800 are the races I enjoy the most..I think it stems from growing up watching the Glory days of Coe Ovett Cram..This was a great race I was so happy for the lad..Well done son ❤
Dette er stort (Huge performance) Especially watching Jacob`s "slow" start at the back of the field, then running some extra meters in lane 3 to catch up and STILL run way under 3.30 min ! Crazy
i honestly think that the 1500m is the most exciting and tactical race distance. sprints push yourself to the limits and you often don't see many decisions made by athletes. marathons typically have those first few "weed out" miles. if you're not in the front pack at the 5k mark, you probably accepted that you can't win. the 1500m, on the other hand, tends to have every runner in the race up until the final kick at the end.
Ever since Usain Bolt (with his massive height difference and his huge stride) I have always watched the stride with these racers. The way Usain ran and the way Cheruiyot runs, you can see why they are so successful in winning. Jakob was phenomenal.
@@natecruz1812 as far as i'm concerned, everyone is allowed to race with whatever method they see fit. if they believe that a jog fest gave them the highest possibility of winning, then a jog fest is what they'll do.
Ingebrigtsen is a super runner... superior heart, superior lungs, not to forget superior legs. In the past we had Aouita, Ngeny, Morceli, Lagat, and best of all... El Guerrouj. But Ingebrigtsen is todays superstar. However he needs to beat the mile record to be recognised as such. I don't think he'll beat the 1500m record, but he could prove me wrong. The future is interesting for sure.
He has said that the 1500m record will be by far the hardest one to beat and one he needs everything to go perfectly for, I think he has a 50/50 shot in the next 2 years. The mile record should be much more doable as it is only equivalent to 3:26.6 or so

By the time Jakob is 28, he'll be referred to as the greatest middle distance runner of all time. He'll knock out the world record for 1500m, possibly as low as 3:24, and he may even set the 5k record too
given his progression in the 1500m and the fact that every second becomes exponentially harder to improve on, there is no way that he'll ever hit 3:24 unless if shoe technology advances a lot in the next few years while still remaining competition legal. i'd put the absolutely best case scenario for jakob to be at 3:25.5
I think he should reserve himself to ruin and only 1500 meters. to be the king for some years. If he runs also 5000, he will make his sporting life shorter, 5000 is big distance and athletes wear too much.
For me, the mile and the 1500m are the greatest athletics events of any era. I like the 100m, don't get me wrong, but it doesn't engage me like the great middle distance races do.
interesting to me, i'm from the USA, that they lady announcer for NBC, another recording, was reading it from 300 or more yards from the finish, that Ingebrigtsen was relaxed and not struggling. I don't know her name, but she saw it. need more announcers like she/her.
@@Nuggetsin4 dam nice, I did a 1:56 in training last month but I think I am overtraining now and getting worse by just following what my coach says every day

The lack of a crowd in the stadium meant that a lot of memorable performances in these Olympics didn't feel as epic as they really were.

Crazy how Jakob was able to unleash that kick despite the incredibly fast pace of this final
It wasn’t a devastating kick, he just has strength the others don’t have off of a fast pace.
And he held off a rapidly charging Kerr at the end. That could be overlooked as an accomplishment. Kerr was totally gassed at that point though.

"That was easy" (det var lett) Jacob said at 8:15 I like some degree of cockyness, makes it more fun
Ever since Usain Bolt (with his massive height difference and his huge stride) I have always watched the stride with these racers. The way Usain ran and the way Cheruiyot runs, you can see why they are so successful in winning. Jakob was phenomenal.
I feel bolt and cheruiyot have opposite strides nothing a like because one’s a sprinter and the other is a 1500m runner
Long distance, mid distance and sprinters all have way different strides.
After the snails pace we saw in Rio, this was much more like it.
That was the most embarrassing race in Olympics history. Nobody counts and everyone feels disrespected by that bs.
