Duel at the Armory: Hasay vs Cain

[Dutra5]

4:09.50?
That makes her final 109.1 meters only 18.75!
She finished in 16.67 in her 4:32.78!
More than 2 seconds slower?
Was she dying at the end?
Did she jog across the line?

She jogged the entire way.

Dude.

[az2004]

and 1:23.59 for montano

"My glass is only 99.9995% full! I'm so disssssssapointed!

[Master Po]

I realize there are many other things to talk about from Millrose, but could someone tell me who is Erik Sowinski. Can't keep up with everyone, and this is a name I've never heard. Thanks in advance.

Also, thanks to kuha for the "glass 99.99995% full" statement-- well stated!

[aaronk]

Even before the men's mile, Millrose stands out as the BEST indoor meet this year!!
The move to the Armory was a VERY good idea!!

How many records were broken tonight??
"Let me count the.....!"
Okay, can the Shakespeare crap, Dude!

But there were MANY!!!
Whatta night!!

Yvette Lewis - 7.84 second in the world behind Rollins and a PB (previous PB 7.90)

Don't know much about him but he is listed last year as having run 1:45.90 (2nd at NCAA meet for Iowa as a senior). 11th fastest American runner in 800 last year.

Kinda surprising that he's 'only' a 46.8 guy. Must not run it much. I bet he has a low 45r somewhere.

[az2004]

ajee wilson 1:26.45 was 2nd

was that a record too??

The announcers said world junior record, but I don't know if they are correct or not.

Almost a second faster than her own WJR.

[Master Po]

thanks odelltrclan -- went back to those results. Ran for Iowa, 2nd at NCAA (3rd at NCAA indoor). I guess I wasn't paying much attention -- should have known who he is.

Just looked at Cain's splits:
34.12 (209m)
34.20
34.47
34.01
34.21
34.42
32.40
30.45

Very disciplined race. Considering the setting, the attention, the fact that it's pretty much home turf for her, it's easy to imagine a young & relatively inexperienced athlete getting caught up in that and either running too fast too early, and/or getting overwhelmed when the pack moves past her in the 3rd quarter of the race. Very steady & controlled effort, setting up an excellent last 400 (and excellent result). In addition to being very talented physically, she seems to have very good racing sense.

and 1:23.59 for montano

what a night breaaks record of 1:26

According to Peter Larson site this is the second best ever (!) behind Olga Kotlyarova 1:23.44

Probably the performance of the meet

all-athletics.com's stats support our announcers, with this listed as WJR for indoor 600:
Linsey McDonald GBR 1:27.4 (12 December 1981)

Right.
At least according to the 2011 TAFWA All Time World Indoor List!!
She ran that time on February 1, 2004 in Moscow.
Montano's time is #2.

I think she had already run faster than that mark this year. Wasn't sure if she had beaten her earlier run this year but apparently she did. I see now it was 1:27.30.

[aaronk]

And Chris O'Hare finishes off maybe the best indoor meet ever (except for championship meets??) with a new Collegiate Indoor Record!!

WOW!!

[odelltrclan]

Indoor collegiate record in mile as well. All in all a fantastic meet to watch!

[az2004]

annoucer said men mile was a collegiate record in 4th guy from tulsaa//

I'm inclined to agree -- in fact, looking at the all-time 600m lists -- combining indoor and outdoor -- Montano's time makes her #6 performer. I realize 600m isn't raced that much, but the four ahead of her (and Kotlyarova) are significant names in women's middle distance running: Quirot, Mutola, Jelimo, Melinte. Great performance for Montano.

[Dutra5]

annoucer said men mile was a collegiate record in 4th guy from tulsaa//

Correct. Chris O'Hare from Great Britain.

Anyone have a confirm on Cain's 1500m? I haven't seen anything other than what was mentioned here.

[Master Po]

I know it isn't a record, but given the history of great indoor performances by Ireland's milers, it seems worth noting that Ciaran O'Lionaird's 3:52.10 makes him #4 on their all-time indoor list, behind some great names: Coghlan, O'Sullivan, Flynn. It's been 30 years since a miler from Ireland has run this fast indoors.

Also, Lomong & Centrowitz now #3 & #4 on USA all-time indoor mile list (behind Lagat & Rupp, moving ahead of Scott & Maree).

And, O'Hare (in addition to the collegiate record) is #2 on GBR all-time indoor mile list (behind Peter Elliott 3:52.02).

By the way, how many record performances this evening? I haven't tallied them yet.

[az2004]

they had a timer at 1500 mark

salazar made sure it was there

2. Cain.........4:26.15 (4:09.50 at 1500)

Where is this from? First of all...what is the 4:26.15?

I don't doubt it was timed....I'm just looking for an official time.

[az2004]

by tomorrow morning the specifics and times should be available

great meet overall

even hasay broke 4:30, good run for her

[Dutra5]

This makes more sense:

Millrose Games‏@MillroseGames

Mary Cain ran her 1500m in 4:11.72 en route to her fantastic 4:28.25. Both are national indoor HS records. #millrose

[Dutra5]

Jordan Hasay ran 4:36

[az2004]

thanks for update on the 1500

ajee had run 1:27.30.600 before

olde usa record was 1:26.56 at Millrose.

both got it montano in a big way

ajee is 18??

[Dutra5]

4:09.50?
That makes her final 109.1 meters only 18.75!
She finished in 16.67 in her 4:32.78!
More than 2 seconds slower?
Was she dying at the end?
Did she jog across the line?

Whatever the case, she now has broken SIX HSR's indoors!!!
Unprecedented!!

she finished in 16.53.

the 4:09 and 4:11 matching up with the 4:26 and 4:28

seem to be the problem

it was coburn under 4:30 not hasay

coburn first race since london, that's a good sign

If you look back at all the posts, right before the mile started, I posted my predictions for the race, listing what I thought the first 6 placers would be, and their times.

I picked Reid to win in 4:25.78, with Cain second in 4:26.15!!

[az2004]

4:26 is assuming 4:09 my bad error here

too excited and messed up big time

abby, doaugostino almost broke 4:30

ok before ukraine where will cain run??

take a break, do some speedwork?? some 800's to sharpen a bit??

get under 60 for the kick to deal with the africans??

alberto, inquiring minds want to know
