The kid is simply amazing. He just turned 18 a couple months ago, right? This race, the Jr XC, and the 7:47 3k in Seattle. Just simply amazing. The kid is on fire right now.
And in that XC race he crushed Derrick and Puskedra. I dont mean to put them down, they ran well and are both great runners, but he handed it to them. And we know Derrick is in shape after his 13:44. Wow....just wow. I'm looking forward to see what those three do at world XC. Let's hope #4 and #5 runners actually show up, too.

It's kinda amazing to me that no one seems to even care much about the kid who ran 1 second behind German with a 3:57. And the pacer should get much of this credit for running them out nearly perfectly and doing the work for the first half.

Dorian got a lot of pub for running a second behind him. Well deserved, in fact.

Wow 4 years ago

I split the race on my watch and if I'm not mistaken i believe he went negative: 1:59/1:57. Thats pretty impressive strength for January.

What acceleration! I know everyone's been talking up Ulrey too, and with good reason given his other races, but he got smoked on the last lap.

Wow! 4 years ago

I would like to know why everyone is in such an unhealthy love affair with this kid. Yeah, he's great, but come on! I watched a vid the other day where the announcers were saying things like, "yeah, but wait until German gets going." We're playing favorites now? What if he has a bad race, are you going to throw him under the bus? He's got enough pressure on him without you all naming him the second coming of yaweh.

Have you watched the Youtube videos of Seb Coe? The British announcers seem like they're reciting love poems to the guy!

Mark_in_Oly 4 years ago

That's a 28 flat last 200, and he hasn't done any real speedwork yet!

He was sick last Saturday and wasn't phased by the best Coe could offer!

kevind 4 years ago
