Daktari Posted August 23, 2023 Share Posted August 23, 2023 That had me to the chair and cheering him on! Really emotional in his interview, which is understandable when all that training, effort and sacrifice comes down to three and a half minutes...

Sooperstar Posted August 23, 2023 Share Posted August 23, 2023 Great performance. As soon as Ingebregtsen starting trying to block him with his arm you knew he had him beat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malinga the Swinga Posted August 23, 2023 Share Posted August 23, 2023 Fantastic won for Kerr. Showed guts and brains to be in right position and then did enough to break that cocky shit.

Mikey1874 Posted August 23, 2023 Share Posted August 23, 2023 A perfect race by Josh Kerr. Ingebrigtsen pace pushed everyone else out of the race leaving it clear for Kerr. He went very early so we'll find out if that was the plan. Brilliant preparation and training to be able to do that. But what a group of Scottish athletes.

To be fair it must have been a choker Two years in a row beaten by an Edinburgh boy. I wonder if he's a Rosenborg supporter.....
