The most amazing last mile in a triathlon - epic sprint finish in London
Спорт
After 50 minutes of racing through the streets of London nothing separates seven men as they near the finish line, then follows the final mile of one of the most exciting sprint finishes in the history of triathlon.

I like the fact that the 2nd and 3rd places are smilieng at the end , running is such a dificult thing to do that at the end even if you lost the race you feel like a winner inside just because you finished it.

+Samuel Matos That's the thing about running, it's not about how good your bike was, or how fast your car is, it's about you and you alone, and when you've run the best race of your life or even of the week for that matter, where you placed just doesn't seem that important.

+Y10Q Sorry to hear that. I too once experienced a "heart murmur" after a race. Started the cool down then all of a sudden my heart "raced" to an ungodly speed. Most painful experience. I just sat down thinking this was it. Luckily subsided after five minutes. Never told anybody that day even though it showed. People asked if I was ok but I just told them it was the race. Again sorry to hear of your loss.

4:29 the last mile? Are you friggin kidding me? Then throw in a sprint on top of that? Heck I would have had trouble with just the sprint these guys were doing the last 200 yards. Hat tip to these beast. I did triathlons but never at this caliber. Amazing finish. Congrats to ALL of them.

Real Sport.
I’m trying to do a sprint triathlon (@55 yrs). It’s really hard to keep going when you are so tired. Watching them give it all in the last few hundred meters is superhuman!
Now that I understand it was a "sprint" its more realistic...I was just thinking I "barely" broke 4:50 for one mile by itself and these guys are under 4:40 for the last mile of a triathlon.....

Much respect to all of them! Doing what is physically impossible for the rest of us !
Now this is sport at its finest. Incredible.
The winner is standing there talking with a smile on his face while the guys finishing a minute after him are all diving on the ground and rolling around like they're about to die. MTFU.
VAMOS ESPAÑA 🇪🇸!!!!!!
Man these people are amazing!!
Incredible display of strength and discipline to be able to move like that after the duration of effort is nothing short of amazing.
4:54 they all just start plopping on the ground exhausted. Pretty funny.
From 1st place to last. Every one of this guys are incredible competitors👏👏👏.
Im wondering on how fit these guys really are... I just ran 5km in the morning and I almost ended up in the hospital bed for oxygen.

I remember my first and only track meet...I played football but my coaches wanted to see how I’d do in the 800m race. After the race I had no place being in, all the competitors were high fiving and congratulating one another, all smiles. It was kind of surreal seeing the positive vibes. That moment made me fall in love with running.
These guys, kipchoge, bolt, phelps, olympic wrestling champions and etc are basically superhumans
This is one of the most painful sports in the world.. amazing guys.
