2022 RunBlogRun Recovery Weeks, Week 1, Day 6

On Thursday, June 15, I watched the Oslo meet. The weather was cold, then warm, then cold, just like Norway! The fans were out in droves and the competition was fantastic.

The battle in the men’s Dream Mile, between Jakob Ingebrigtsen, Ollie Hoare and Jake Wightman was fantastic! Jakob had company until the last 200 meters, and he pushed himself on from there. Ollie finished one second behind and Jake was three seconds. What a brilliant and exciting race.

All three of those guys ran as juniors or high school athletes, and Jakob started as an 8 year old. Each has different paths, which path will you follow?

Think about that! How far do you want to go?
