Katelyn Tuohy National 5k Record! 

I have no idea why this was recommended to me, but I watched every minute. She runs so smoothly, seems almost effortless. And the way she cruises past everyone else. What must they be thinking when she passes them. Amazing

The other girls seem slow by comparison..but to think they are running that distance at the pace they're doing is incredible...!

Sis really JOGGED a lap in 35 seconds 😭🤩

She makes it look effortless. Just out for a leisurely run, no big deal!

The fact she ran that fast with no competition and having to pass lapped girls the entire time is amazing.

Incredible athlete, most athletes don’t peak till they’re in their twenties, let’s hope she keep improving and doesn’t burn out...

Katelyn was born amazing! But it's not magic, folks- it's damn hard work and sheer guts. Total respect, Katelyn !

Can't imagine being in that good of shape.....ever. She's incredible.

As a wheelchair user, I can only watch people running. Katelyn's running action or style looks BEAUTIFUL. It looks as if this is jogging and effortless. What a wonderful talent. Oh what a pleasure to watch athletics as fine as this. I understand there have been injuries and COVID which we have worried about for all ages. I do hope Katelyn continues running and youtube captures her success. Go, go Katelyn. Wonderful talent.

What was incredible is that she was so far under the record yet didn't lose form. Stride length and cadence just seemed metronomic and very little tension, very efficient, a joy to watch.

This woman is a machine. She lapped everybody it was no freaking contest. I can't believe it.

Just announced: To make it fair in the future, Katelyn has to run against horses, and the horses are scared.

I swear, it looks like Tuohy is sprinting the whole time.

I could watch this girl run all day. What a fluid, flowing style she has!

Also take time off for the fact she was constantly running wider when lapping other runners!

She is in a total zen mode, nothing but the moment counts. How wonderful to be able to see that. The consistency of her movement is stunning. What a champ!

She’s honestly one of the best athletes I’ve ever seen, moon is the limit for her! She’s amazing!

For me, the best moment was at 11:10 when she seemed to be keeping pace with a long jumper who had to run only 40 yards in 10 seconds. When you can run 5.0k at the same speed as someone running 0.04k, you're strong and fast. I also noticed at 11:26 some boy in the background tried keeping pace with her for 40 yards, and he certainly did, but that was all.

I've watched this before, several times. Thus far in her career, this is my favorite race of hers. Her running style was smooth as silk, and like the announcers said, a machine. There were great announcers too which made watching this so much more enjoyable. They apologized to every other runner because all they could focus on was Katelyn. After her knee injury and now maturing, it's great to see how she has started her college career.

This was PHENOMENAL! She ran a masterful race. This was amazing to watch.

Just see how quickly Katelyn recovered and got her breath back.

I know the dad of a girl who raced Katelyn earlier in the year and spoke to him about his daughter's thoughts about racing her: it's not easy for all of these other girls psychologically. In a more normal time, there would be perhaps a few slightly better runners than the rest of the pack, but those would not be unbeatable at all times. But Katelyn is a once in a generation - at least - athlete that exists in a realm different to that of her competitors. When I asked the dad what his daughter found the toughest part of her race against her, he said it was towards the last few minutes or so of the race: it's not just watching the pace of Katelyn, but her composure: the technical perfection of her stride, the discipline, the focus and the look on her face when she goes past you - the ease of what she is doing is what is so numbing for other runners. With everyone else, there's the legs slowing down, the arms dropping a little, slightly less co-ordination...and pain. Katelyn seems like a CGI animation done to perfection, start to finish. And she's still a kid. There is of course the chance that as her body changes it may have the impact that it has had on so many other great female runners, but if she simply becomes stronger...you are looking at a legend of the 2020s and beyond.

One of the truly great performances in US high school distance running history, a complete solo effort.

I’d get sick and tired of running in a circle 25 TIMESSS!!!

Seriously, watching her do this takes my breath away.

This has to be the twentith time I've I've watched this run and EVERY time I'm stunned at how this woman runs. I watch her arm swing, the leg stride, the relaxed shoulders.....she's a prodigy. I hope she takes good care of herself and continues to amaze us as she did in this race.

You can’t teach this she was born with this greatness I don’t think you will ever see another God bless katelyn Tuohy me I think He already did wish her nothing but happiness and success

She runs like a gazelle. It seems effortless for her but I reckon she worked very hard to get to this level and will work even harder to run on the world stage.

This young woman is poetry in motion. She is a machine.

The fastest I've ever run a 5k is 20:30.... and that was d@mn hard. I was sprinting the whole way until I felt like I was going to puke at the end. (Granted, I'm outdoors jogging with wind, traffic, and an uneven surface but still.) I'm not a pro runner by any means, but to run 5k in 15 minutes is incredible.

This young girl is so special and so down to earth.😊I will follow the rest of her accomplishment for many many years.Alot of track records are going to fall

You know what’s nicer than watching katelyn win is just experiencing that smile and hearing a very balanced well raised young lady, that’s success right there! But man can she run.

I am from the UK, and if Katelyn doesn’t get at least one gold medal in the next olympics, I will be very disappointed. She is such a great talent and has a phenomenal future ahead of her.

Katelyn is such a wonderful runner to watch. I wish her all the best in her running career.

This came up on my feed, I have never seen anything so compelling to watch, its pure art in motion, made it look easy. I hope she never looses her focus and works as hard as she did through her whole life. Bravo Bravo young lady. ~Trooper

Love her relaxed style. A beautiful running action.

I've watched this so often, I still find it joyful to watch. How wonderful this is. A prodigious talent.

I think this is the 3rd time I've watched this event. It just doesn't get old. Congratulations Kaitlyn.

Katelyn may still have the face of a child but her performances are beginning to look grown up. It's a truly massive jump from where she is now to a world class adult athlete but I bet that she is more than determined to get there. She has loads of heart! We all wish you well Katelyn.

Katelyn is a massive inspiration! I hope it can get a great olympic coach.

Having Katelyn and Katie Ledecky in the endurance sports (running and swimming,of course) is a blessing for the US.

Watching this race from the beginning has me so amazed that I put it on the same level as when Secretariat won the Kentucky Derby by 23 lengths.This performance was beyond amazing as I have never seen any distance runner lap the field so many times in one race. She will be unbeatable for the rest of her career, as she can only get better as she gets older, stronger and more determined. Someone should give her ONE MILLION DOLLARS for this performance.

One of the most amazing accomplishments in ALL H.S. running. You were so powerful and graceful and just a pleasure to watch. GBY 15:56 ❤

This was January 20, 2018 when she was a High School Sophomore. Not a Junior. January 20, 2021 will be 3 years later and she's currently a Freshman at N.C. State.

Katelyn was like: "On your left".

Pocking an early lead like this is a risky move for a long distance runner, WOW I am impressed with her run. Breaking so many records in a run is amazing.

I watched the entire video, now I'm out of breath

She’s amazing

Amazing run by Katelyn.. same speed from beginning to end. most heroic effort I have ever seen. Congrats.

What a performance... the form is textbook.

No idea why this came up in my feed but omg amazing to see!

These girls are amazing!

Katelyn, I can't go a day without watching all your races on U-tube. You light up my life.

I have watch track events all my life and I just cannot recall witnessing such an amazing feat of endurance and athleticism. At this point she is so young and already has such a smooth stride that produces such steadfast power over distances. Her body which is really not that tall with a thin muscular frame, how does she do it. She is amazing!

Congrats to Katelyn...amazing stuff!

Talent personified in women's sports congratulations katelyn enjoy the win have a day love from TEXAS

So beautiful. Perfect strides, smooth

She is an amazing runner. Really.

I like just after 2mi when she was running with a triple jumper

She's great a machine, nothing like her the greatest runner ever!

Wonderful run! God Bless and continued successes!!!

Awesome run! I have no idea on why people would dislike this video, commentary was on spot and the runner made history. I guess haters gonna hate.

That was amazing! So glad that popped up on my RU-vid. A treat to see. I won't forget the name Katelyn Tuohy.

I’ve watched this race more than 20 times and I’m still blown away. you go girl!

She is incredible! 😯❤️

i saw this among the other videos that the youtube bots show in the main screen and did not know that it was to be so exciting an incredible moment in sports history. my God Ketelyn Tuohy is a robot runner! she is just phenomenal, stupendous, magnificent, crazyyyy! how in the world she does this? she runs like a machine and even the commentators said it. they had no words for what they were witnessing. i lost count of how many laps she did and how many times she went passed all the other competitors. the camera also forgot the other runners and just focused on Ketelyn. she did not paused and she was like the Energizer Bunny that just keeps going, and going and going nonstop. indeed she is a champion, an exceptional person. the other girls were slow and tired, but hey let's give them an applause for staying in the track and not giving up despite knowing that they would never catch Ketelyn. the camera did not showed it, but the girls were not trying to beat each other to the finish line; instead they seem to just be hanging around, presenting challenges to Ketelyn who had to pass them. Ketelyn's pace was continuous, yet passing the slower runners may have caused her to slow a bit. each lap that she made seemed to be better than the previous. the audience were supporting Ketelyn and you could hear the announcer saying something like "let's give a round of applause to Ketelyn Tuohy." the title of the video should say "Unbelievable Ketelyn Tuohy Breaks National 5K Record!" anyway, this video was enticing and i enjoyed every minute of it, could not did not want to pause it. Congratulations to Ketelyn and all the girls who participated in this historic event. ok that's all folks, enjoy life! thanks

Beautiful excellence.

I have been watching Katelyn from the UK for a few years now and i call her the baby faced assassin. She is so gentle and polite, well mannered and feminine, but inside she is a beast, just amazing to watch.

😭she is literally just built different

Katelyn is now running for NC State. And yes, she's still a beast. 5k and cross country also.

So cool to see, awesome running style! Keep it up Katelyn and make sure you have fun doing it!

They all did sooo well ! Amazing

To young people everywhere, put your game systems to one side and put your spikes on. Running like this is gorgeous. YIPPEEE, and applause to runners everywhere.

Katelyn, you light up my life.

¡Qué atleta más formidable! Aplausos de pie.

Katelyn, I am probably your oldest and most dedicated fan at 85 years old, but my age is a plus for all that Ive experienced as an avid sports fan. All I want to say to you after watching all your accomplishments at such a young age, is get ready for an extraordinary life ahead of you. You are going to be the Elvis Presley of the track. Your popularity will be as recognized and excepted as one of the best that ever stepped on a track and your followers will experience the thrill of their lives. Good luck, you special little star and buckle up for the ride of your life. Love your talent, Jerry

It is a pleasure watching Katelyn run. She is so powerful and smooth. What a running machine! I can't wait to see her in the Olympics!

This woman will break many records. MANY!

My Lord phenomenal.. absolutely crazy..n she's so young. Bless you young lady stay strong

THE GOAL NOW IS OLYMPIC GOLD!!!

Amazing young girl, the work that goes into this level of competition is amazing. History in the making

Katelyn Tuohy's 15:37 at 15 years old is actually the world record for girls aged 15 at 5000m ! ! !

I ran the 400 and 800 in high school and college at least for a year in college and I switched all the sports and I was fast but good Lord was one of her parents are Greyhound by by chance? She is just an incredibly beautiful Runner and I'm talking about not her looks I'm talking about her style she runs so beautifully it's it's like poetry

Amazing pace. Bravo

Awesome race!

Great run!

Why are the slower runners not moving out so she does not have to run a longer distance? When I was running at the high school level, it was in the rules that if you were lapped you went out to the second lane, to allow the faster runners the right of way on the corners.

What an UNBELIEVABLE athlete.🏆🏆🏆

Brilliant young lady and I just hope that she is allowed to develop naturally without too much media and other unnecessary pressure placed on her. Her winning time ranks around 1 300th on the list of worlds' fastest 5k times for senior women and 56th for U18's. All the very best young lady and just enjoy your running!!

What incredible form - bonus is one of the best color analysis I've ever heard

phenomenal runner

The effortlessness, the almost arrogance, the maintenance of pace… everything is just perfect about that race

she is poetry in motion

She walks seemingly effortlessly and breathlessly, as if from another planet.

This time would have been even better if her opposition ran in lane 2.

Simply amazing

The last time I saw an athlete dominate like this was Secretariat when he won the Belmont Stakes I had tears in my eyes for that race and I admit that I have tears in my eyes watching this race because we are witnessing a perfect machine that just happens to be human.

Congratulations Katelyn your unbelievable...God bless and iloveyou.

Awesome in a class of her own enjoyable to watch.

This young lady is super Human Best of luck to this fine young lady.
