An exodus is underway with the Bowerman Track Club as Cooper Teare, 24, became the second athlete in nine days to depart the team on Friday.
He leaves just a year after joining the famed club last September.
The move seconds the one Grant Fisher made on Oct. 19, just over a week ago. The American record-holder Fisher (3K, 5K, 10K) was a long-time member of the group who reached the Olympics in 2021 and finished sixth in the 5,000m at the World Championships in Budapest.
Teare was a distinguished athlete at Oregon and an NCAA outdoor champion at 5,000 meters before joining Bowerman, a club that trains out of Eugene under long-time coach Jerry Schumacher. He won the U.S. title in the 1,500m in 2022, clocking a time of 3:45.86, thereby qualifying for his first World Championships.
Teare clocked a 1,500m best of 3:32.74 this outdoor season and finished fifth in the 5,000m at the USA Championships in July.
He finished his outdoor season in Monaco, where he ran a time of 13:19. Teare ran a career PR of 13:12 in May.
