I think one thing you missed and what very few people are talking about, is that Jakob was only 22 last year when he was setting records, while Kerr was 25 during worlds and 26 during this indoor season. This is relevant because while Kerr is now in his prime years for middle distance, Jakob is still 2, maybe 3 years away from that. This is relevant because Jakob will have a huge advantage moving forward as his body finishes developing, and he's already been an athlete who has consistently improved every single year. We won't know until we see him race, but I think Jakob will be the better of the two.

But he's off about his style of racing as well. Anyone watch the European Championships outdoor or indoors in the 1500 and 5,000 since he was 17. He has the full repertoire. I think he is just not comfortable with slow as molasses races and that's what happened plenty of times in Cram's era esp championship type races.

1:57 not one word was said. Dude forgot to turn on the audio. 😂

I think what Steve kram (no clue if I’m spelling this right) mean by one dimensional is that Jakob tends to run races in the same way, go out hard near the front, hold the lead, and then kick with that ever you have left and NOT that he can only run one event. And this has worked very well of Jakob, he runs fast consistently, and he makes all these races fast, irrespective of if it’s the 1500 or the 5k. However, Josh Kerr can run from the middle, he can sit n’ kick, or he can do the Jakob and run from the front (though I think Jakob is still better at this). Looking forward to the Pre!

Jakob is cocky, just as Kerr is cocky. But Jakob's cockiness i way more warranted than Kerr's. Jakob has way more impressive credentials than Kerr. Kerr has beaten Jakob in 1 final, Jakob has beaten Kerr in 8 finals. Kerr's championships from 2019-2023 has been like this: 6th place, bronze, 5th place, gold, while Jakob has: 4th place, gold, silver, silver. Kerr has won zero Diamond Leagues in the 1500m/mile, and has 2 podiums, Jakob has won 12 DLs in the 1500m/mile, and has 20 podiums. Kerr has been talking alot about "being in 3:27-shape", yet he has never touched 3:28, his current PB is 3:29.05. After the 2022 WC final, he said that he was in 3:27 shape. His fastest 1500m that year was 3:30.60. Kerr has the 2 mile world record indoor, Jakob has the 2 mile world record outdoor. When Kerr ran his record, he ran the last 300m in front, when Jakob ran his record, he ran the last 1100m in front. Jakob has proven himself way more than Kerr has.

I don’t think we can really judge too much until we see how they match up against each other when they finally run in early June.

As usually this dude is disrespecting Jakob. Lets not forget he is a double world champ in the 5,000 and Olympic champ running away in the 1500 and his two mile way superior than Kerr's and he talked about how easy it was and his 2,000 world record is ridiculous. Also since he was young he ran against the best in the world and he is a 4 time European champ and that is a championship race and he beat both Whitman and Kerr in the 2019 world champs, and his father taught him on how to destroy the best Africans and to have no fear of them and he's be a monster since he was a child. But all of a sudden this dude and all the Kerr sycophants thing he's trash. He thrives on competition, and it was Kerr who didn't show up at the diamond league finals races but ran some stupid road race mile instead. Jakob did not fear Africans when they were destroying everyone and he certainly has no fear of an Englishman who beat him like one time in like 20 races, something like that! Of course Cram world say that, but where is Cram's Olympic Gold medal, and Cram broke some records but he wasn't a world beater in championship races with one gold medal. At only 23 Jakob already has three major championship gold medals, Kerr has 1, Cram had one. Jakob is only 23 not even in his "Prime" yet while Kerr is going on 27. If Jakob loses the big race, he will keep on going probably win the 5k again, if Kerr loses the Olympic 1500 after all his talk and all this, it may destroy him. We've seen that before. Be careful what you ask for Mr. Kerr!

Hey, guys whats your thought on this ?? ...World Run Championship, which would showcase the global talent and excitement of running as a sport. Similar to the Cricket World Cup and the FIFA World Cup for football, the World Run Championship would bring together nations from around the world to compete in various running events. This event aims to elevate the profile of running and provide a platform for athletes to showcase their skills on an international stage. Here are some key details and comparisons to existing sporting events: Format: The World Run Championship would feature a variety of running events, including sprints (100m, 200m), middle-distance (400m, 800m), long-distance (1 mile, 3k, 5k, 10k), and marathons. The competition would be structured similarly to existing World Cups, with group stages followed by knockout rounds leading to the final. Global Participation: Like the Cricket and Football World Cups, the World Run Championship would be open to all nations, providing an opportunity for athletes from every corner of the globe to compete against each other. Grand Opening Event: The World Run Championship could kick off with a marathon involving all participating countries, serving as a grand opening event to symbolize unity and the spirit of competition. Broadcasting and Spectatorship: The event would be broadcasted globally, allowing fans from around the world to follow the action. Stadiums hosting the competitions would draw crowds of spectators, creating an electrifying atmosphere akin to other major sporting events. Promotion of Running: By establishing the World Run Championship, we aim to promote the sport of running and inspire participation at all levels, from grassroots to elite athletes. The event would encourage a healthy and active lifestyle and serve as a platform for aspiring runners to pursue their passion. I believe that the World Run Championship has the potential to become a flagship event in the world of sports, attracting widespread attention and excitement.

At their best, Jakob still has the edge over Kerr in the 1500. I think the game plan for Jakob is to come into Paris with 3:25-3:26 fitness and just run the legs off of Kerr and Co. Would be the smartest move on his part.

Hey TRP, just a quick question for you personally. Did you run T&F/ and or XC in high school or collegiately? What sparked your huge interest in running?

You often hear slow races referred to as tactical races in the middle distances. I think this is a bit deceptive, because it suggests that the fast races aren't tactical, which is definitely not the case if there is more than one runner still in contention. Most people seem to agree that championship racing doesn't play to Jakob's strengths, but the bigger concern for Jakob, I would think, is that he runs his super fast times due to extreme fitness and coming from injury is not a good way to reach that level. I don't know how long it will take Jakob to get there, but I'm sure this is not how he would choose to start a season. If Jakob can reach his best fitness level and gets his tactics right, I think he could win, but Josh, Jake, Yared and others are all in with a chance and based on preparations so far this year Josh is looking in the best place so far, I would say.

I have a Norwegian bias. Everyone thinks Jakob is cocky and arrogant, I think Kerr is a lot more cocky and arrogant than Jakob has ever been. Jakob is analytical and hard on himself, and I think that comes across as being cocky at times when he doesn't deliver on his own expectations. Kerr seems to be more focused on beating Jakob than he is about being the best he can be. I'm not sure at all how this season will play out. It seems to me like Jakob has had more challenges in his training this season than he has before. I don't know if all the fuss and drama has been eating away at his recovery, or if he has pushed too hard wanting to shut up the haters. I wouldn't be surprised if he has a less than stellar season just as I won't be surprised if he wins everything he participates in.

Yes, the interview's audio is not working, it is muted.

I give it 50/50 to either of them this summer.

Cram wasn’t talking about Jakob not being able to run multiple distances. Cram is talking about his running style, strategy. Racing is more than records. Racing is about finishing first. Records fall when they fall. Also, indoors has a lot to do with strength almost as much as being fast. Many stronger runners can win indoors but not outdoors. What I mean by that is how the turns are indoors. Tighter corners sets up stronger runners. Not dissimilar to an outdoor track experiencing a crosswind. Headwinds are tough but that’s why we draft and stay in the pocket. A crosswind takes strength for integrity in your stride. With a tighter corner it takes a bit more strength to also keep integrity in your stride. I personally don’t care who wins. I just want to watch a race that’s fantastic. A great race where one and two both beat the record would be great.

Just bought tix to the pre! First pro track meet ever so excited for this epic showdown let's goooo 🏃🏃🏃

I'm like you, 6 months ago I was all about Jakob, but of late I can't help but think he just hasn't had a good build up to the Olympics while Josh seems to keep getting better. I don't really care either way as neither of them are representing my country (Go Aussie!), but I simply can't wait to see the showdown.

Every time someone hypes up an Olympic event like it's between two people and no one else I inevitably think of Dan & Dave going into the 1992 Decathlon (spoiler: Dave got the bronze and Dan didn't make the Olympic team).

The Olympics always throws up surprises. Paris will probably be no different. Thats the beauty of Athletics. 1500m in championships is especially unpredictable as its arguably one of the most tactical races in track and field.

Couldn't hear/understand her question.

Ingebrigtsen has been injured. He might not be at his best. Kerr looks like he is going to be hard to beat since he is in great shape and he has the top end speed in his kick.

Except opponents have said Deion doesn’t do any talking on the field and off the field he is too busy praising himself. One exception is when the played Atlanta and he threw punches in the game so it probably was personal

Jakob isn’t going to develop a crazy kick so beet best for him is to back himself up and go out fast and keep increasing the pace. He has done this before and there is no reason to believe he can’t do it again provided he’s healthy. Haven’t heard what Kenyans are upto so there’s that too.

IMO, Jakob is confident, Kerr is cocky. Kerr stirred this pot up, but that lady interviewing him acts like Jakob is the instigator.

If Jakob improve another 0.5-0.7 seconds, and are capable of running under 3.27 (with rabbit/lights), he will be strong anough to crush both Kerr and Naguse with two deadly fast last rounds. So we will see if he is capable of improving like that, or if his injuries this winter set him back to much. I think he will surprise us again...

Kerr wins if no one else overshoots. He has the same endurance as Ingebrigtsen but is more powerfully built and can finish faster in the last 400m, 200m and last 100m. Whatever Ingebrigtsen does, Kerr is right along and I'm guessing he picks up the pace with 200 to go. Passes Jakob when 75-100 m remain. Jakob then has no chance.

nah jakob is much better when hes not having fever

Talk is cheap. Running head to head counts. That Kerr needs to trashtalk Jacob, shows that Kerr has a hidden personality issue, that he needs to deal with. He forgets that the only thing in this world he is good at is running. He has no other qualities.

Both fantastic in their own rights. Jakob and Josh probably need a bit of this needle, to push their competitive edge. Cram would be like me pushing the team GB but I'm definitely no one to discredit the great runner Jakob is, even if at times show some unbecoming traits. He's an accomplished champion. Love the fire and belief Josh has in his abilities and hopefully stays fit, to peak at the right time. What they must not do, is forget about the other potential threats!

All comes down to the tactics of the race, a fast race favours Jakob as long as he is not setting the pace. A slow tactical race favours Kerr!

I think there are about six potential gold medalists. Kerr seems v comfortable with all the hype and also seems to be controlling it, so i gave him as the favourite.

Jacob is brilliant but he can only win one way. He has to run the finish out of Kerr. After a few rounds in Paris I think that’s unlikely but I’m British. Both men need to improve their 800 times. Cram could run 1:42.88. I feel the 5000 also tires Jacob so Kerr remains fresher.

If he trains his sprint specifically he could be unbeatable I guess

Jakob should run the 1500 only so he is fresh enough to run at a speed no one can live with the entire race. There will be no kicking from anyone else because they will have nothing in the tank

What happened to your Boston Marathon 2024 video?

What social media is jakob on?

Best trash talker in the world is Tyson Fury. Watch his face-to-face sessions with Deontay Wilder.

Just run lads just run

I'm not a fan of Josh Kerr, but I do agree that he seems to have the edge over Ingebrigtsen going into the 2024 outdoor season. During the last year Kerr's conditioning has improved considerably so Ingebrigtsen can't just run away from him and will have to deal with Kerr's superior kick. My top 3 for the Paris Olympics 1500m final are Kerr, Ingebrigtsen and Nuguse.

I am surprised Sauce Gardner wasn't on the list

There are three if not more runners in middle distanse that kan break the WR at 1500 meter, 1 mile, 3000 meter and 5000 meter, so this season will set some WR's, mark my words. I think Jacob will stand with the 3000 WR for shure, he is capable to run 7:15 on that distance now. He is also ready for one mile WR, close to 3:40, and he can run a 1500 meter maybe as low as 3:24 given a perfect race on a perfect day. Jacob is also capable to break the 12:30 barrier at 5000 meters, so i wonder how he will set up the season. I don't think Josh Kerr has any shot at the gold at all, because if it goes fast like sub 3:28, then Jacob will win the final, but if the final becomes a slow tactical race than Narve Nordas will win the final. Nordas has runned 400 meter at 46.4 seconds, and i don't see any other racers in the field beat that kind a kick. So i give Josh Kerr wery slim chanse realy. So if Kerr runs to fast enaugh to shanke off Nordas and that will require a 3:28 feat, then he will loose against Jacob as i see it, so Norwegian gold regardless 😎

I want some of what you're smoking.

I feel like we should have the Olympic Games only 2 years apart, and this case shows exactly why. Jakob has a huge disadvantage with his injury and could easily not receive gold even if he is the best (not saying he is). If somebody peaks between two Olympic Games, that feels unfair.

Why place so much importance on the Olympics? The fact that non-track fans only pay attention once every four years shouldn't force the rest of us to call Paris races the most important.

Larry Bird is the greatest trash talker in sports history.

I believe Steve Cram is dead right. He should know. Cram (1.42.88 over 800M) was a near perfect 1500M runner - who could run world records over the distance and had a big finishing kick to boot, if the race was tactical. His kick was only slightly inferior to the great Seb Coe (1.41.73 over 800M). Ingebrigtsen is highly vulnerable in a slower, tactical race as he just hasn’t got enough natural sprinting ability like Cram, and especially Coe. Hicham El Guerrouj had a better kick than Ingebrigtsen but lost the 2000 Olympic final (3.32.07) to a slightly better kicker (Noah Ngeny 1.11.97 1000M WR holder), who sat on him. Even if Ingebrigtsen reaches the same fitness level as 2023 (unlikely given his injury going into 2024) his only hope of beating Kerr is to make the race an even-paced 3.25/3.26 pure endurance test, so blunting Kerr’s kick. Ingebrigtsen’s best distances are at 3000M and beyond where he can run the last 1000M in under 2.20, if required - even off a fairly solid pace. He’s extremely difficult to beat on that basis over the longer distances.

we talk about the men in the 1500 but I'm looking forward as well to the ladies in the 800 with Keeley Hodgkinson and a thing mo so much good racing to look forward two

I would love to see Yared Nuguse win, but I think it will be Kerr for the gold in Paris. Maybe Kerr🥇, Nuguse🥈, Ingebrigtsen🥉in Paris...?

what needs to stop ? strange title

Kerr can go with early pace now which takes away a big advantage that Jakob has. So Kerr has different ways he can win. Jakob always has to run the legs out opponents. I see Jakob winning 8 out of 10 races, but Championship racing in middles distance is hardly ever like that. It’s messy and physical. I don’t see Jakob beating Kerr if they both make the Olympic final fully fit

Ingebrigtsen have shown a level of arrogance rarely seen in none Americans.

Josh is a beast...Jakob is a beast...Can't weight for Paris!

Yeah, it's gonna be heavy!

0:55 most of them are yanks lol. No surprise there!

Best trash talkers of all time are Larry Bird and Ali, no one else is even close. As for the Jakob and Kerr rivalry, I suspect more than half of it is just 2 lads having fun at each others expense. IMO Jakob doesn't win the 1500m in Paris. As Steve Cram correctly noted, Jakob is a bit too one dimensional and will always be vulnerable to someone with a fast kick. Doesn't mean Kerr wins in Paris either, there is a lot of top talent capable of taking both of them down. I believe Jakob is a better 5k runner than 1500m runner, the longer distance allows him much more time to wear down the fast kicking opponents, Jakob has a decent kick himself at the end of races, just not world class kick

The creator of this video had absolutely nothing to talk about and waisted his and our time talking about the same dam thing. Get off their nuts.

Uncle Chael is still undefeated

Jakob hasn't as much top speed. Kerr is taller wich is a advantage. A big advantage! Jakob must be so much fitter to compensate the lack of speed. But Kerrs fitness is no joke either. It's much easier to train fitness than speed!

Ingebrigtsen has burned out
