Message: [QUOTE="Blakeon18, post: 4673164, member: 35"] The article said that there were a couple of rabbits in the race. The organizers also had lined a series of lights just inside the track. The lights were set on a pace that would allow Jakob to set the new world 'best'. Stay ahead of the lights...world best. Fall behind...Jakob would know he had to pick up the pace. But the time is NOT recognized a a world record as per CCSUblue's reference to this distance simply as one not in the mix for track organizations. Great performance nonetheless. Hmm...do you think a woman will ever break the 4 minute barrier for the mile? Current record is 4:12.33 set by Sifan Hassan.....back in 1993. [/QUOTE]
