“You can’t outrun a dog.” A PR, personal record, by nearly a HALF SECOND in 400m, is amazing. The 400 is PAINFUL, a pure sprint AND pure distance event. “Pacing” in the 400 is kind of a joke. This guy did it out of pure will! Congrats Bro.
For the first time in human history five runners were under 44 seconds in a 400m race.
Consider that fewer than 1% of college 100m races are won by a time of 10 seconds or better. 10.41 to 10.8 seconds is Division 1 elite sprinter status.
Quincy Hall did FOUR of these consecutively! And he still had the courage and hunger for the finish line that is a challenge to us all. “Participation Award”? Ha!
I’ve seen many times “another gear“ in a sporting event. This was not that. This was heart.
Maybe this isn’t just about “Track” or the Olympics? “Run YOUR race to Win”?
Watch the finish here. An amazing investment of your 44 seconds:
