I’ve never seen Jakob that boxed in with 400m to go. Next thing you see he is pumping up the crowd with 100m to go.
The best runner in the world putting on a show for the sport. Gotta love it.
🗣 "I don't think they tried to chase me down...They tried to hold on for as long as they could. Obviously, that's a big benefit. Would love to do it myself but unfortunately, there's no one."
Hear from Jakob Ingebrigtsen after he ran 3:27.95 and led 8 men under 3:30 for 1500m at the Oslo Diamond League.

When I was in high school, I was a running phenom, reaching #1 in the nation.
Then I largely failed. I never improved.
Here are 9 lessons for the driven that I wish I knew when I was obsessively training and neglecting just about everything else:
WORLD CHAMPION ‼️ WORLD RECORD ‼️ SYDNEY MCLAUGHLIN 🤯

It’s supposed to be 90 degrees in Eugene on Sunday. The men’s 5,000 final will be run at 6:05 p.m. PT. But Jakob Ingebrigtsen isn’t worried.
“Hot weather is just happy weather!”
Ingebrigtsen says he will "for sure" run both 1500 and 5000 at World Champs.
And the Europeans?
"I'd love to do 800, 1500, steeplechase, 5K, 10K and marathon, but I don't think that's possible with the schedule."
WORLD INDOOR RECORD ‼️
