great job torrence! u deserve that victory cause you always put it on the line bro. Oh and by the way you made the guy in this video look like a complete idiot because halfway through he was basically laughing at you and said that you looked horrible with your head down. Then once you won he was like yeah torrence looked great and his finish in that last 300 was amazing. Wow you made him look horrible. Anyways great job on the race and with the training, keep on truckin and get urself some nice stuff with the 14K!

Sucks they'll tax the hell out of that because its a gift. DT wins 7,000! after uncle sams cut!.
No, DT will make less than $30,000 this year, and will have expenses to deduct after that. If he knows what he's doing Uncle Sammy gets nada

Tangent_2 4 years ago

Using the video for road positions and landmarks and measurements from Google maps, I estimate that Rankin ran just over 5 feet further than Torrence because of the different tangents they ran approaching Grant street. That made Torrence's surge all the more effective. Rankin tried to cover it but he red lined and was done 100m later around 14th.
This was great coverage by Flotrack!

DT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Tangent 4 years ago

I was watching the race at the bend where Rankin missed the tangent. He had to cut back to the left much more than the video suggests. He was running almost on the curb on the right side.

yeah dude, he was decked out in puma stuff...I don't know about his shoes though...I don't know how good of racing shoes puma can wear....

Who said anything about him turning down the puma sponsorship? He was definitely racing in puma gear...

Nice 4 years ago

Congratulations to David. Everything has been going well for him. Too bad he turned down the puma scholarship though.

so, did you guys dub the "in race commentary" into the video after the race? i thought i saw matt standing at the finish line during the woman's race....either way, nice job, and some sweet running by Torrence

Victor LeMay 4 years ago

so torrence turned down the puma sponsorship? that sucks for all the guys who actually wanted it. defeats the whole purpose of the puma mile.

DT Rocks!! distance runner with that sprinter swag. we need more of this in mid-distance/distance running.

Dan Knewitz 4 years ago

so wait did he win 14,000 or 24,000? its 14 for the win and 10 bonus for under 4 right?
$4,000 for the win and $10,000 for breaking 4, so $14,000 total.
