World Record Progression: The Marathon

The Marathon is a distance that many try to conquer for their own reasons, whether it be to finish one or to set a new personal best. A select few, however, would seek to became the fastest in the world across this discipline, and in due time, would break one of the most iconic barriers in sports history as as result.

When she speaks l can't but think of Mini Mouse.
What because you say so? Where is the proof. She did not have any dirty test. NO! She was fast - consistently. Shut up unless you have real proof of wrongdoing.
The wind was a crosswind if anything. Also any hypothetical wind didn't help the other athletes did it? Explain THAT haters! Just deal with it, Flo Jo is the fastest woman in history. As far as PEDs go, she never failed a drug test and even IF she was juicing, so was everyone else. It's a well known fact that all modern top athletes take steroids and many in the past. And if all the athletes including thompson are on PEDs and can't beat her record then obviously Flo Jo is just better.
Kerr sure does like to project. Attention seeker you say? Ok mister podcast, if you say so lmao.
kerr is another who uses that annoying croaky voice 🙄🤐
Less considered all Usain Bolt's records are file
Dude playing Brakence in the back at 10:10?
Yessir. Dumb Party is my favorite song from Internet Girl btw lol
If he was born in America and lives in America why is he not competing as an American?
Josh was right something did happen. He had a falling out in his family to be estranged from a family member.
I mean Jakobs PB is nearly 2 seconds faster than Kerr’s and has 7 races with a faster time than Kerr’s PB. Once he’s back into shape I don’t think Kerr is really gonna stand a chance.
dear god... him admitting it and apologizing would have just been the best thing he could have done.... even if he was stupid enough to take the medal (because maybe he was afraid of looking like an idiot) but I guess that's not the case... since he decided to make a massive spectacle of the whole ordeal. I feel bad for the 3rd place guy because you don't just not know you are in 3rd place. it's just so unfortunate that people do this... for whatever reason. it really tarnishes the integrity of running. I CAN understand why he would choose to do his next race under a guise.
Who would have thought that the #1 and #2 would be more competitive with each other than #99 and #100
Great analysis
running the great north run in 78 minutes is so impressive im doing it this year and i think ill be lucky if i run it in less than 3 hours😭😭😭
Brakence instrumental. Makes a great video even better
Did Steve break 4?
Sure they're rivalries no doubt cuz they'll finally face each other again this summer in Paris
Didn't they actually patch things up after the Bowerman mile? Maybe they are getting over the old row?
Drug cheat pure and simple!!!!!!
Can't wait for Paris!😜
How does Flo Jo go from her best time ever 10.9 in a previous track meet, and her next track meet, the Olympics, she runs a 10.49🤷🏽♂️🤔? Then she retires right after the Olympics. Thats like Usain Bolt's best time ever is 10.0, but his next track meet, the Olympics, he runs a 9.5 world record. Then he retires😮. Very suspicious about Flo Jo. Track times doesn't work like that. Im not going to run my best time ever...11.2 one race, then the next race I run a 10.3. It doesn't happen like that unless I was doing something strange
Flo Jo's 100-m record will be immortal.
Flo jo is the qeen the best of the best You cant run down her time now you want to take it down ..R.I.P my qeen
Not surprised they didnt really go at it. Norway not really know for having a culture if trash talking
Am i wrong but didn't she die very young?
The comments here and your comments are just baffling. Kerr beat him in the most recent championship race. The end. Whenever a Brit is doing well recently I've noticed a lot of Americans try to lower their status. It's a rivalry because it's a rivalry. Jakob is pissed he's been beaten by 2 Brits. Josh knows Jakob is quicker in a paced DL race, but that's not a championship race, and so is using any means possible to win.
If it was a real rivalry Kerr wouldve shown up at the European championships but he was too busy cycling PEDs, how is he going to be "in shape" for the Olympics if he takes part in the Euros?... meanwhile Jakob is diving over the line in the diamond league and taking the European crown.... Plus Kerr keeps going after obscure rarely run records like 2 mile 1 mile etc rather than making any real interest like matching Jakobs 1500 times
Because he's on a different cycle to Jakob. Kerr has done plenty of high profile races. Since winning at Budapest, Josh has ran in the 5th Avenue Mile, did a half-marathon in San Diego, did the 2 mile at Millrose, did the 3000m at World Indoors, and the Mile at the Pre Classic. Ducking PEDs my ass. He'll be at British trials in the 800m and probably do a 1500m/mile before the olympics. Honestly this is just bizarre hatred and shows your lack of knowledge. Jakob has went for obscurer rarely ran records too. He literally went out to set the 2-mile outdoor/outright world record at a Diamond League meet last year! Jakob is the one that's ducked meets according to your logic - he didn't go world indoors! There's a 1500m at Monaco and a week later there's a mile at London. I bet both duck each other. Josh could go for his home crowd in London and I bet Jakob goes to Monaco.
Jewish
My high school vice principal had a car help her and cut about half the course of the half marathon. Since she barely practiced, she didn’t win or anything. And then bragged about the race on Facebook. We never reported her but many students knew haha
Crazy but there’s no beating Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone
Nobody in track stays undefeated for very long but we ain't forget how paulino did her at the diamond league 😂before Sydney was Sydney she was getting beat by Dalilah Muhammad.
While Josh comes from Scotland (specifically, Edinburgh), he has lived in the States for years, starting with Albuquerque (when he ran for Univ of New Mexico). Nowadays, he divides his time mainly between Seattle and Albuquerque. (But he's still a proud member of our Edinburgh Athletics Club - as is Jake Wightman.)
Thanks. That explains his accent. 👍
Neither of these guys are very graceful competitors, or respectful of each other. Not great to see.
Cheating equals competing
The truth is: she’s just not good enough at running and that’s why she felt she had to LIE.
She beat me at Monopoly once, now I’m suspect of the win’s legitimacy 🤔
It’s pitiful to dig in for ruination of one content creators career for advancing your own. Kate May have been under extraordinary pressure and evidence shows as women advance through the age groups they are replaced by the bigger content creators despite having built them whilst the guys make the “I ran a sub xxx at 40…” as if that’s old! Who really gives a bleep if she skipped a km, did it affect your race? Not taking anyone’s prize money but this might tell us something about the cultural issues at publications and CZcams channels, maybe that’s the bigger story here!
Johnson was so much fun to watch in the 96 Olympics! He toyed with everybody!!!
Original commentary at the time suggest before the race that it will be the fastest run ever but wind aided. At the end of the race both commentators instantly dispute the wind gauge 0.0 reading! You can see the official at 14:51 onwards white flag blowing hard just as they start too!
Ive never seen a youtuber completely switch genres on a whole new account and do successfully before very impressive and great video
I think Femke vs SML in 400mH in Paris 2024 is equivalent to Ledecky vs Titmus in previous Tokyo 2021. But i think SML still gonna come on the top..just the gap gonna be a lot2 closer..& this coming from a massive Femke Bol fans 🇳🇱🇳🇱
I suspected she was cheating, in one race she beat the others by almost 50 yards.....unreal.
Sounds like sore losers to me. Rob did nothing wrong! Runners need to wake up and start studying bus timetables in their training if they want to stay competitive. Or come up with their own ideas like a giant catapult to launch themselves over sections of the lake.
Nice video. Very interesting. But you put the racing scedules over the image and that is 19th century style. Several times we can't see the action because you put the information in front of the running action and that is totally wrong. Even in the 20th century there were ways of placing see-through text on the video so we don't have to miss anything. Please for your next video learn how to do it proper.
14:00 bro wtf is up with that crotch shot 😭
For me, it was Performance Drugs. Look at what distance she is in front of everybody, the Wind would have Helped Everyone!!!
Bullshit
Ive been watching athletics from when i was a kid there alot of wind assisted mistakes in a load of races is that all thought he was gonna say more than that flo jo record stands until somebody breaks it
Lmao, what a legend 😅
What if Mburu, the assistant doping control officer, let Kiprop know when each test was coming so that he could demand a sum of money from Kiprop in exchange for reporting the test as negative? Then, when Mburu reported the test as positive, it was because Kiprop only paid him 25 bucks.
Please get her crowned in Paris :)
