At first I thought Kerr blew a chance to go under 8:00 by celebrating down the home stretch. But analyzing frame by frame the last 20 strides down the home stretch, his times for every 4 strides were 1.2 sec, 1.3, 1.2, 1.3, 1.3. So his celebration really doesn't seem to slow things enough to cost him the 0.67 sec needed for sub 8. His time for the 20 strides before that was only 0.2 sec faster, so he really kept almost the same pace the whole last lap. Great effort!
@@tomneave15 Haha, not really! It only took a couple of minutes to analyze, while I was looking for a distraction from what I was supposed to be doing.
The result of that race was never in doubt. I can't wait for the next race between Josh Kerr and Jake Wightman, now that the latter is coming back from injury.
Congrats to Kerr. Too bad he celebrated early. Next race is never guaranteed. He could've been the first to dip below 8:00 minutes for 2 miles. Better to have waited one second.
Do you think Fisher can get near Jakob in any race ...answer is no ..so the olympic champ will retain his title . Nobody can beat him in the ONLY race that matters.All other races like the one you watched are just fun runs...
