Ingebrigsten's only shot of beating Kerr is to run the finish out of him. But it's not like Kerr didn't beat him in a fast race when he ran 3:29. Kerr might even be able to run faster than ingebrigsten over the 1500m at this stage. It's such an exciting Olympic event though.

Nice hair Beamish. John Walker and Rod Dixon must be proud‼️

Fair play to Kerr. The Ingebrigtsen clan is in disarray and he can capitalise... and tbh if he continues on this renewed trajectory he might do it in any condition. Epic performances from the Europeans, who were the deadmen of middle and long-distance running for most of my life.

Fast kicks are only impressive relative to how quick the overall race goes, but Kerr still has an insanely fast kick. Nuguse needs to position himself better to utilize his strong kick. Kerr has that part down pat.

Josh seems like he's not just gifted physically and speedy, but also has a great running / training IQ - he makes all the right noises.

It truly was Mo Farah like from Josh Kerr. It's like the whole field knew he was going to win and he paced it absolutely perfectly. Never bit on a thing Barega or Wale did.

Hi Jakob, hi Josh, we know you both watch TRP. Two awesome athletes we are all enjoying what you are producing in this event.

At the moment I think Kerr's the favorite in Paris, certainly when considering Jakob's injury woes & lack of momentum.

Even though Geordie Beamish says he is running the 3 k Steeplechase in Paris, with a finish like that he must still be a big chance in the 1500m.

It’s crazy to think Jacobs the underdog going into outdoor and the Olympics

The 12s 100m is amazing but it’s the fact that it was on the back of an incredible last 800m that is outstanding championship wise. The Farah winning formula.

Amazing performance from Josh. That 1500m in Paris is going to be epic

It’s still early in the season for all the hype! It means peaking will need to be well timed!

In this form it seems like Kerr is the absolute favorite

After a race in a relatively moderate pace one can run a fast finish. After a near world record pace the final kick is slower. That is natural. There are about 6 athletes from the above mentioned list who can run the last lap under 53 seconds or indoor under 26 seconds. Beamish’s 26,2 was spectacular regarding his 1500 PB.

It’s going to be hard for Kerr to keep this level of fitness up until the world championship, also Jakob’s injury is much less severe than most people think. He’s actually been running during the winter, including threshold and hill sessions as you can see on instagram and Strava. I still think Ingebrigtsen is the favorite.

Great race by Kerr, he found that closing kick speed he had back in college and ramped it up to "international fast." Nuguse had a great race, too, his final 200m must have been very close to that of Kerr's final 200m. I liked Hobb Kessler's run in the 1500m, he just needs to get faster in that last 200m-400m. He lead most of the 1500m here, had a few steps on the field at the bell, but just got outrun by Beamish and Hocker. He mentioned in a post race interview that these indoor races with small tracks and tight turns are getting him used to the bumping and pushing found so often in international races. Might want to keep him in mind for the Paris final (if he makes it through the USA Trials). Great meet with great racing all around 400m - 3000m.

Beamish looked like he had more in reserve.

Some websites have him at 173cm tall, seems like he's taller, or else those ethiopians he was racing are quite short.

Well Paris will be a feast for you middle distance tragics. There's never been so much talent . But who will be the 'race pace bunny ' ? I suspect McSweyn will go to the front early. The young Turks, Kessler and Myers will be daunted by even being at the Olympics. The freight train runners , Jacob, Kerr, Wightman will amp it with 800 to go. If Beamish can find a way to stay with that group, his new found confidence might surprise again. History travels in rythyms , and all I can tell you my fellow tragics is, 'underestimate a Kiwi at your own peril '. In an Olympic final, race tactics can go out the window at the crack of the starter's pistol. Kerr is very comfortable in his skin at this time... Jacob's a mystery at the moment. Just to line up in the Paris final will be an achievement by itself. " Let the Games begin ".
