“WFT is right” must have something to do with fungible tokens, right?
What are you guys talking about? Hasn’t it already been pointed out that Kerr closed in 26.98/54.85 in a 7:33 3k at Millrose last year? It seems like a given that he could have run 8:07y that day, and perhaps significantly faster.
Part of your disbelief is a disrespect or misunderstanding of Kerr (i.e. not understanding that he has ample strength for 3k/2 mile, his second best events), part is a misunderstanding of 2-mile times. The distance isn’t contested (let alone time-trialed) by the world’s best very often, but there are plenty of guys every year who could smash 8:10.
<8:03.4 indoor WR seems like a perfect target for Kerr.
JWH when you are wrong you are really wrong. The ONLY factor on your side is the super spikes and super tuned tracks. Mo Farah was a 3:28, 12:53 runner. Josh Kerr is a 3:29, 13:23 runner (let’s give him 13:05 to be generous). Kerr is not in the same league. Does this mean he cannot run 8:03? The answer is he cannot.

I thought Kerr could break it definitely but thought sub-8 might be a bit of a stretch. He very nearly hit it. Obviously Grants inclusion and pacing helped a ton. I said if he hit sub-8, sub-3:28 watch should be on. I’ll put it on anyway!
