Jakob Ingebrigtsen - Kerr will be known as the brit who never competes.

He’s a bad role model. I would hate for kids to want to emulate his arrogance and disrespect of his fellow runners.

What a weirdo.

He isnt the one focusing about them? The media were pestering him with questions about them, as they always are. With Katir he Even said «your mistake is giving attention to cheaters». The media wants to start a fuzz about this, he doesnt.

So he has no control over what comes out of his mouth? Thanks for clarifying that.

Come on, Kerr is nowhere near in the same league as Mu or SML. He competes less than Jakob but you regularly see Kerr on the DL circuit and competing during the indoor season. He ran 11 races last year if you exclude the rounds in Budapest. It's not like he's never out there even if Jakob competes more often. This year, we've seen less of Kerr but he's still competed at four meets.

He hasn't really got to if he doesn't want to.

He wants Olympic gold

He raced 11 times last year including three times against Jakob (four if you include the semi in Budapest). As far as I can see, he's ducked Jakob precisely once

BS BS BS BS BS, Jakob is BSS!!!!!!

Josh Kerr is the 'master of peaking' according to Robert's supreme opinion piece!!!!!!!!

Jakob is the shy girly of major championships, thrice failing on the world's biggest showpiece!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

BS Jakob!!!!!!!

KERR for the gold right now this moment!!!!!!! Heats begin in 55minutes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

But if he named any of those guys he'd be forced to admit that they compete against him about as much as Kerr. Take Cheruiyot: raced Jakob 3 times last year (same as Kerr) and once in 2022. Or Nuguse: raced Jakob 3 times last year (same as Kerr). Or Hoare: leaving aside 2023 when he was injured, he raced Jakob three times in 2022.

So who are these top guys that are racing Jakob week-in week-out? McSweyn? Nader? Habz?

*Not including the rounds at Worlds in any of these numbers

Look, you the one dissing KERR the whole time together with the rest of atheistic and agnostic immoral America???????

For once show some principles and let the more ethical lad win Josh KERR

You are right sir!!!!! Kerr raced just as much against Jakob as the rest of the competitors.

Also just a point to note, the Paris organizers have illegally doped up the track surfaces with extra semi-conductor material which will make the 1500m final 4-5 seconds faster, I believe, than it really is.

So I just want to forewarn everybody that if Jakob runs a WR 3:25 in Paris, that would be only worth a 3:29 at best alright????

Thank you!!

....

Rather you like Jakob or not you can't say he doesn't race often and to think about Josh barely races more than Athing 🤣🤣

Like you have no control over the 31,500+ posts that come out of your fingers? Thanks for clarifying that.

Eh, but Jakob is getting at this year and the end of last year especially, as well as Kerr overall tracing very infrequently. I doubt he’s mad Tim races Kip Keino or Doha which are home meets for Kenyans especially. He got hurt last year at Worlds and assuredly would have done the DL final and a couple others if healthy. Josh Kerr skipped DL Final, Euros and Monaco. You can bet the 3 guys I mentioned don’t skip meets of that caliber.

That's a generous interpretation of his comments. He certain didn't qualify his remarks as referring to this year. Skipping last year's Pre is hanging over all of this discussion about Kerr but the facts are that none of the top guys are racing Jakob more than 3-4 times each year. That includes Kerr. And I'm not going to rag on Kerr for missing Euros. It's a second-tier champs that is used by British athletes mainly as an opportunity to get a vest. Just look at who makes the team (GB only sent two me to the 1500 which tells you a lot). The odd star will go, like Hodgkinson, but not many others. The fact is, Jakob is a freakish outlier in his desire to compete at every opportunity. It's not just Kerr who can't compare, nobody can on the 1500 circuit.

Kerr raced Jakob in two DLs and the World final last year. We might want more, but nobody else in the top-tier of athletes raced Jakob more often.

get mogged by 123 please kill me bro. armstronglivs stfu

khamis bro. just leave this site. we dont want you here. you need to see a therapist for your delusions and consiparicy theroys.

Well look what he said. I brought up head to heads but Jakob actually just said racing overall. And he’s right all the guys I mentioned have many more 1500s/miles. Kerr ran one mile in the first 7 months of 2024. Even if not head to head, storylines are built by stacking performances as well.

Ingebritsen will lose and then claim he was ill
