Original video without flash recompression and music

At a 4 minute 4 second finish the winner was averaging 14.75 MPH and since he was speeding up for the latter half of the race he was running even faster for that leg of the race.

Alan Webb in 2005, 1500m final. He does the same thing... except he last 100m and he gets destroyed by world class runners.

"They laughed. The crowd actually laughed"

"People assumed he miscounted laps."

"He hadn't"

And I lost it. That commentary plus the fact that he was a solid 1/8th lap up at the point along with the stupid music was just too much.

Blocked! What kind of dick doesn't want people to watch a damn running video. Fuck these assholes.

[u/Bornsalty]

DAMN! Just watching that brought back the butterflies I would get before my 1600s.

..I bet he vomited after too!

Be your own hero.

Lol this must the video Matthew McConaughey saw before he wrote that ridiculous Oscar speech.

As an Australian human on planet earth - nothing, and I mean nothing beats this for running.

One minute mile record holder Landy stops, STOPS, mid race to help a mate who had fallen over, dead set last, half a lap down, goes on to win.

YOU SERIOUS ?

Yes, yes I am.

I'm impressed that your toaster is able to take video footage.
