Championship of America Boys 4x800m Wild Finish At Penn Relays 2024 

He was locked up and cooked. Likely wouldn’t have mattered

Was hard to watch

Yup, he had it n threw it away

years of research on vo2 max and threshold training, but looking at others is definitely why he hit the wall.

True nuff respect to him, showed true heart. Big up to him from Jamaica, we always respect those who demonstrate hearts of champion.

What you mean by this year they might as well change the name of the meet to jamaica sports day and not penn relays

That’s cause the Texas teams don’t come to these, Every once in awhile you’ll get 1 team from Southern California, Texas, Florida and Cali are where most of our dominant teams are

So True ​@@rontilson3

Well if those states that you mentioned are so wealthy. They should be able to send those athletes to their most popular track and field events in America. Jamaica is poor in comparison to those states. Jamaican athletes look forward to attending Boys and Girls championship in Jamaica next The Carifta games which is held in different Caribbean Islands each year. ​Then the track season, is ended with going to the Penn realys and that is the icing on the cake for them.Jamaican schools has been sending athletes to the Penn Relays since 1964. Now you know how much it means to our Jamaican athletes to do well at the Penn Relays. One love,the tradition lives on. 🇯🇲🇯🇲 @@rontilson3

We got a bobsled team ⛷️

yea, a tournament is what we're watching

He ran a poor race, he will learn from it.

51.5 opening 400m it looked like

He still would have lost because he was barely holding on from the 150m mark.

Fervet!!

How? The other dude locked up at the end. He had nothing left

That’s the obvious mistake, it the REAL mistake is his coach. He should have been in his ear telling him, “when you have a lead like this, go out hard first 200, then rhythm run the next 300 hundred. Pace a little down the next 100, then bring it home. This is so you can respond. The Jamaican runner did so much to close the distance he would have had a burst. Even if he tried, in his mind, he would be thinking that’s all this kid got.

❤my Ja!!

YEAH HE WAS TIGHTENING UP AND WAS HOPING CONTACT WOULD SAVE HIM😭🕷

Bull. He got hit by the Jamaican runner. The whole world saw it

@@jabaltariq4606That’s not what I saw. He was struggling and out of control with fatigue.

That kid must have gone out a lot faster than he was used to running. It was hard to tell where the lap line was on the video, but it looked like the Christian Brothers anchor may have run around 51 seconds for the first 400m. I would bet that is close to the fastest 400m time he has ever run - his body just gave out on him at the end

Lawd Jesas! "The noise from the crowd scare him!"

@@Vgolding1 lol i know i shouldn't be laughing but that mek mi laugh yf bout noise from the crowd🤣. It was a good run though he got back up and finished the race so props to him.

😆

😂

😂

Summady say the noise scare him!

@@Vgolding1 dwl

😂, I doubt that!!!

Yep

Bygrave**

@Creolebabe92 thanks. Typo I didn't notice

Exactly 😂

Or it was just a strategy because Jamaicans terrible at interviews🤭

he lost all his scholarship with that run

Its High School. These are teenagers. CBA went for the win and tied up. He got up and finished for his team. That's a win even if he didnt win the race. It's a teenager learning how to get better. Literally that's what life is. Made a great race. Epic.

I wondered. He swung his hands out. Caused a hand collision, and then he fell. Not sure if it was deliberate or if he just reacted to the pressure.

Exactly what he was doing!

⁠@@Vgolding1 you saw that too. He also drift over into the lane when he saw JC coming.

How dem get suh tongue-tied come interview time?
