There were days where my reason why, my end goal, was shrouded by the sweet relief of letting it go. With my will tested and my mentors guidance, I learned to not only suppress those urges, but embrace it. Every fall became a lesson, an insight, a chance to improve and refine. I finally emerged with skills to hone in on my tools absent sight. Hone in on the jack with a gracefull swab of my index finger, and merge two devices making one far greater than the sum of it's parts. My hearing amplified, my gaze entranced , I honed in on this, the mating call of a soft damsel wooed of her feet. The sweet serenading voice of a lovely, lonely siren. The lustful, intense roar of a lioness in heat. It was then that I had to tell the world of my discovery. All my training lead to this moment. The broken tools, the sleepless nights, the grueling days, the sheer agony, all led to this very moment. In this comment above I transfer to you. My knowledge, my insights, my wisdom.

If you put the college boy 43.06 on the Olympic starting line for the 400m!!! I think you get sub-43:00 out of the starting blocks. If he remains uninjured, then he goes under 43:00 at the 2020 Olympic Trials and again at the Tokyo Olympics, and brings it again for the relay. That kid, he is a kid, is relaxed and confident and evidently in good hands. Perfect situation looking at NCAAs and Tokyo 2020

It's good to see our future performing so well in a non WC/Olympic year! Between Lyles, Norman, Coleman and now Ronnie Baker we're looking pretty damned good going into 19 and 20. We need Fred Kerley to continue to come along in the 400 to solidify our team and return us to dominance. After his 43.70, which I saw him run here in Austin, he's struggled a bit on the big stage. Perhaps Wil London will open as the leadoff leg, LaShawn Merritt can go out a champion running the second leg, Fred Kerley the third leg and Michael Norman the anchor!

Ho ho ho! WHAT A RACE! that's what the 4x4 is all about. The A&M anchor holding Norman off as long as he could

He should’ve ran a 42.85. Here’s why: He was in lane 2 for about 1/4-1/3 of the race, and lane 2 around the track is roughly 7 meters more, so we’ll say 2/7 of the race was in lane 2, and he ran about 402 meters. that 43.06 pace for 402 meters is actually 43.06(400/402)=42.85 at 400m that’s ridiculous.

Jacie LaCour: You're correct. That was Ford (who did his best but was the weakest link ) on the third leg. However, I blame the coaches for this as they underestimated Texas A&M because of Mylik Kerley not running because of an injury. Based solely on pure athletic ability, the lineup in this race should've been: Ford, Norman, Benjamin, then Shinnick. Next month in Eugene, the order must change again to maximize abilities there.

@RN-DNP

6 жыл бұрын

Lamar Murray: I slightly disagree. Texas A&M and Florida are the double threats to USC and the NCAA 4x400 title. But Mylik Kerley is injured and may not run. So the Trojans will need to play chicken in Eugene next month to maximize each athlete's ability. That means running the faster runners first making the others tie up with their muscles burning with lactic acid in trying to catch them. It's a tried and proven strategy that works. The lineup order should be: Benjamin, Norman, Shinnick, and Morgan. In my opinion, it's the best possible scenario. I think Benjamin is capable of running a low 44 leadoff leg. Norman can blast the second leg (with another low sub 44) and set up Shinnick to at least maintain. Morgan is at least a second faster than Ford in the 400m so, look for a sub 3:00 time for the winner. I wouldn't be surprised if the collegiate record is broken.

Meanwhile, if he and Morgan can run a mid to low 45 in Eugene, then the 4x4 title is theirs granted if the other participants play their roles.

Thinks about it. Norman closes the huge gap between the handover to the final turn. Then he pulls up, takes it down a couple of notches on the curve. Off the curve he opens up again to overtake the leader runner on the final straightaway. His cursing speed on the curve is simply flying. After easing up on the curve and he still runs a 43.1. I would have loved to have seen that one in person. Speechless.... No words for that. None.

mentality plays a lot, in one competition I ran in 53 seconds (nothing special), and the winner did it in 49 seconds, but in the mixed relay, I ran 410m in 51 seconds trying to catch up with the other teams.

Here's my take on it. He probably won't beat Kerley's record, but he obviously is going to get damn close. No, he isn't anywhere near 43.03 right now. But the dude's 20 years old. And the best argument in favor of him breaking it isn't just his talent, but how well his head seems to be on his shoulder and how hard he works. Other guys might burn out, but not Norman.

USC coaching staff and coach Watts are careful in not running him too much through the season. Even look at NCAA's. He's #1 in the 200m right now but they know if they let him run that then he'd be too exhausted through the rounds. He has a good supporting system who're very knowledgeable in choosing when he peaks and how to pace his progress.

#1 AT 400m split is 42.94 by MIchael Johnson, USA (Baylor University, Clyde Hart coach) on the anchor of Team USA on the then world record set in Stuttgart, Germany in 1993.

Watching videos of track meets gives me ptsd of the season and makes me feel weird when they get on the blocks lol

Jeez,they have chopped 30 seconds of this in 40 years.

To think the world record for the 1500m is 3:26 just amazes me

Raymond Greenwood the 3rd leg was an alternate. It’s funny because I ran track with the 3rd leg guy in high school, he went to my high school and I remember handing off to him in the 4x400. He was our anchor haha. His name is Robert Ford. He specializes in the 800m.

Rene Villarreal I am not saying 47 is a horrible time but I would think USC would have more than 6 people who could run sub 47. For an 800m runner 47 is very good as a transition time but I would have thought they would a sprinter who could run a 46 low in a relay.

Rene Villarreal don’t get me wrong 47 is not a bad time especially for a 800 meter man but I would have thought USC would have several cats who could run a sub 47 .. 400 meter runners and would not have to go to a 800 meter man.
