That's how I perceive myself when I run but my stopwatch laughs at me in response.
always nice to see jack salisbury. sadly i only remember his name from one race…
Great run! I definitely think this outdoor season will have the most sub-4 milers in high school.
“And a name to watch in this section…”
25 seconds of dead air
Kinda looks like the guy finishing behind him pushes or jabs him.
Race starts at 0:19.
Great commentating! I hate hearing annoying voices that have no idea what they're talking about, so I'll take the dead air
Imagine coasting through in last while running a 4:02
Why is there a guy why was running that dropped off? Was he setting the pace for the other runners or something?
He has quite the interesting stature
Best race commentary I've ever heard.
This should be an official distance. Scrap the 1500.
Let’s go Connor
He runs for Honda?
One of the poorest quality Flotrack videoed I’ve seen – Not one mention about Connor Burns in the final lap not at the finish
Really sucks for the guy who looked like he tripped on the rail at 3:35, it didn't seem like it was the fault of the guy passing. Also what is up with this incredibly dry, awkward and barebones commentary? Felt like it was silent most of the race.
Dawg just make me a commentator at this point
Alright! 3.59!!! Not many people can say they have ever run this fast!!! and especially a high schooler! Congrats!
Who is the other 4 to go sub 4 min mile? I'd assume the Newbury Park Young Brothers are at least two of the four.
