To have a positive split of only 1 second is absolutely amazing in cross country. This has to be one of the most evenly paced 10k’s ever when looking at the 5k splits.
The man has been running 110 mile weeks for months.
He's dialed in
@@cwbb76 There are many (even sub-elite) runners who run more than 100 miles/week but cannot pace themselves so perfectly.
Conner Mantz 1st 5000 - 14:16.4 … his second 5000 14:16.7. A delta of .3 seconds ..barely a 1/4 second , not the 1 second you state.
Overrated
@@cwbb76 too bad he never wins a world championship
The mustache defenitely played a role in winning!
Hehe, it's funny because it's probably true!
Conner is a generational runner. I can't wait to watch him as a pro when he battles the worlds best in cross country. He never runs a poor race and is always battling for the win. By far the best NCAA Cross County runner for the past 2 years.
I wouldn't expect much in the world championships
@@waterproof4403 Give him a few years and you will start see him running with the lead pack.
@@davidbaldwin3599 Its unlikely they will finish in the top 10 in the world cross country championships. I wish them good luck still. Qualifying itself is a great achievement but I wouldn't expect them to win against athletes that grew up running barefoot in the mountains and forests since birth
@@waterproof4403 ok I guess people like Jakob couldn’t beat people “ running barefoot in the forests and mountains “ . What a stupid childish myth.
@@maxl5423 when was the last time a non east African won the world cross country championships?
I just automatically like all of Total Running Productions videos.
same lol ill watch anything just wish he posted more the production is unmatched on youtube when it comes to track and field
Hey would you ever possibly do any DII analysis? I know there aren't any big names or insane times but I'm a DII athlete and the xc nationals this year had a lot of drama in it as the top runner fainted with less than 2k to go and it was a very dramatic and interesting race. If you would every do this it would be very much appreciated by me and other DII athletes I'm sure.
And DIII!
and NAIA!!!
I vote for this as well
And NWAC! Just kidding, no one knows what NWAC is.
I would love a D3 analysis too!
Coop and Yared really blew up, also : Death Taxes and NAU winning XC
The MANTZ ZONE! The legend! Go Cougars! I hope he makes the USA track and field team for the 2024 Olympics.
This race was awesome, I'd never watched a college cross country race live, and this was definitely worth it.
teare showed so much grit love that man and what he resembles even when he was in Boulder doing Ben Crawford
Finally!!! I’ve been waiting for a video on the Beast, the Legend, a high school rival, Conner Mantz!
Yup, I watched him win Utah cross country at good ol' Sugarhouse Park.
@@konroh2 I was in that race😅 The crazy thing about this dude, was he was only his region champion 2 times, and the state champion once. He was like top 5 every year though.
@@Mr.Pip_ I do wish him well as a professional. I kept in contact with him a little as he's blogged, when he came back from his mission he ran a flat out 5K and could only manage 18:00, had to build up from there. I hope his drive and heart serve him well as a professional.
@@konroh2 I was so sad when his blog stopped! We are a about to see the fastest 10k races ever!
That's one mighty fast mustache!
and see-through at that !
Props to Clinger from BYU - those 7 points with Conner's 1 made for a solid team score when the other 3 finished well back. Gotta move up some runners to under 50....
I think Clinger will be win this by his senior year. Each year he is improving.
@@davidbaldwin3599 I think he's just now getting form back after church mission...
@@lylestavast7652 I agree, it takes time to get back to 100% after a mission.
🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Steve Pre would be proud!!! Congrats all and Conner⚡️⚡️⚡️
"Perfectly-trimmed mustache"
This race was absolutely insane. I ran cross country in the DII NAIA back in the late 70s and early 80s and definitely know what its like to hit the wall with only meters to go. Cooper Teare probably should have held back instead of trying to stay with the lead pack in the beginning. That blistering 4:22 first mile put him in oxygen debt and was most likely the beginning of the end for him with the early lactic acid build up becoming a factor the rest of the race. He is still one of the gutsiest athletes I have ever seen. I have a lot of respect for him even finishing the race when most would have given up. Connor Mantz, on the other hand, was on a whole other level. All I can say is "Wow". He's for sure the real deal. Congrats to him.
Total running production is the only TH-cam channel that adores both , track events and field events equally 🙌.
Zatopek describing himself could also sum up Conner Mantz -
"I was not talented enough to run and smile at the same time."
I ran against Connor when he was a freshman and I was a senior. He kicked my trash! The kids’ work ethic is insane and he’s one of the nicest people you’ll ever meet.
The pain that these athletes put their body through is crazy. It has to hurt during the whole race and to see Connor finish like that! Great determination and focus.
Conner Mantz is a bonafide legend.
Congrats to Connor. He is a beast
I taught connor back in 8th grade, he was damn fast then. I think he'll be an excellent Marathon runner, the guy has so much endurance and grit.
yeah no u didnt
@@ofcl.swayxi3654 Really? You went to North Cache?
@@reflectionsdetail google is very helpful
First and last km absolutely insane
Meh
I'm not a fan of BYU, but Mantz is hard not to root for. So much respect for his ability to keep an honest pace.
It's Adam Fog exclusive Adam Fog, fogdog!!
Fogg*
His result was... (don't open the expand comment if you don't want to know his result)
139th in 30:30.7
Wow this great. I never saw you cover cross-country but the content is awesome. Keep up the good work.
your probably the best channel for running news that exist
Kiptoo will always impress me with how effortless he runs
Connor Mantz is an absolute beast- He just doesn't know how to lose when the chips are down. He reminds me a lot of the legend, "Pre". Same grit and determination, slightly unorthodox running style; even looks a lot like him with that 'stache! I expect to see him in the marathon race for us in the 2024 Olympics.
Great placement by Casey C. also to help BYU point total. But ASU is simply "the amateur running franchise".
Wow! Unbelievable finish.
I would want to see these runners at European Cross country races where its not just running on some grass for 10km but through mud, forests, streams, boggy fields, and hills.
The times are impressive but its like they are just running on a grass track. They need a challenging course where flat speed isn't the only factor but strength, endurance and tactics come into making the champion. It makes watching races more exciting because everything could change for any reason, a person could trip or break away up a steep hill.
The end time shouldn't be a big thing as every course should be different with different features which could help certain athletes who no one really knows about to give people who may not be the fastest in flat out speed have a shot at winning.
Put them in the word cross country championships
Excellent point. Cross county times mean nothing. It's the place that counts. Vice versa for track.
I run on the same high school XC team that cooper teare ran in, and our assistant coach actually was running buddies with him (apparently). Dude also had the same core teacher as I did in 6th grade, though different years obviously. I’ve seen him occasionally out and about running, and Jesus Christ the dude is quick
I think Cooper showed the greatest heart though at end I hope he's okay
My first time to see white guys running so fast!
Thanks TRP for the upload
I watched this today. The whole thing was incredible!
NAU wins with ease without a single senior in the top 5
They got their strat down pat. No heroes, just great teamwork keeping every runner in the heat
That altitude is paying off
God these guys are absolute monsters
Haha not at all. Amatures
Nice to see Rian Wildschutt doing well on an international stage!! Used to kill it in all the local trail races. Prodigiously talented and diverse runner 🇿🇦
im pretty sure Teare thought it was a mile race according to his start ahah great video as always
Besides the win, it was pretty awesome for Conner to optimize his performance pacing himself well with almost identical first / last 5k splits.
It looks like they are running impossibly fast wow
Haha not at all. Watch the world cross country championships and you will be stunned
I met Conner a while back when he gave a lecture at a local running shoe store. I was surprised at how short he was. My young twelve year old was there, and they were roughly the same size. So great runners come in a variety of sizes.
Best distance runnersare very small because they need to be light and efficient.
Mantz made the others look like boytz
Conner reminds me of Craig Virgin in '70 and '80s world x country champion.
Kioko looked like he just started jogging after Mantz passed him
Probs was gased
More than you know bro!!
Gotta love a Prefontaine moustache but you need the legs to back it up
He's got the legs too!
The perfectly placed mustache rofl
I ran here for Natinals last year
its a nice course
Kioko looked like he just gave up when Mantz passed him. He definitely could’ve finished second if he’d kept pushing
Thank you so much for covering this! Will you be covering the women's race as well?
Watched a video yesterday about Newbury Park and a video today about BYU. My high school and my college. I guess I missed the opportunity to be a better runner!
Mantz only won because of the mustache. Legend has it that it had Teare crawling to the finish. They also did go out hella fast.
In all honesty though I think Kioko was instrumental in how fast pace was. They knew they couldn’t let Mantz sit around. Especially if they saw what he did in Provo at regionals
I was thinking at the start Jesus they are all flying
i heard- this race was coming up
You can’t believe the defending champion won again??
yeah pretty daft statement wasn't it
Great job 💪👊
sad for cooper teare. it was hard to watch 😕
And his perfectly trimmed mustache
😂😂 5:12
I suppose you could mention he's like the first US born runner to win it in awhile... :)
Perfectly trimmed mustache! 😅
A 4 :22 first mile is insane on a cross country course
Great video!
Legend
I was at the race. It was electric.
👏 👏 👏 👏 congratulations
I’m a slow high school runner and ran a 5k at this place 3 days after this race and my time was the same as the winner
How can't you believe that he won? He was the favorite lol
sheeeesh
I mean hes had like 7 yesrs to prepare for this
Bitter? Dude was on a mission for a couple of years where he did run at all. I would argue the others had an advantage because they did not take a 2 year break from running. Many return missionaries never find their running form once they return.
Spelled Tallahassee wrong in the intro… but good video though
I feel bad for coop
Could you do an analysis on North Central College? Although they're D3 they've have the most dominant cross country team for decades
Lol, I remember getting y ass kicked by them in the late 90s while I was for a DIII school in MI.
insane
Meh
Buddy just turned on the legs
Who’s gonna tell him that Notre Dame is pronounced not-ra dam
no one, because in the US they pronounce ir No-tur Dame.
@@lylestavast7652 bruh
Is he the new mustache ?!
Chart of historical multi-winners at 3:38 is wrong. Henry Rono went to Washington State.
Conor is one of the gutsiest runners I see, but don't try this at home...
Why was Morgan McDonald not in this race?
opening mile was actually 4:15-4:16**
Cooper Teare really suffered and should get the refuse to quit award.
Anobdy know what shoes they were wearing most people and people who placed high up are wearing those white shoes. Anybody know what thoes shoes they are called?
Damn
Cover the women's race?
he has pigeon toes when running
Conner Mantz is almost 25!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He shouldn’t be running anymore in college
He is a covid redshirt freshman so it's all good
He'll be almost 26 when he wins next year also
Finally something other than sprinting which is boring to me at least. Distance running requires more discipline and adds more drama as a sport.
Soo... STEEPLE CHASE??
@@ignorethis68 Steeple chase is good but sprinting is boring anything 800 or above is drama.
Any R E L A Y. az well tho!! !!
@@ignorethis68 relays are boring to me.
Keep up the good work Total Running Productions it’s good to see variety because knowledgeable track and field fans enjoys all of the events within the sport.
But the second half of race seemed to be a lot faster jet just 1 sec in the difference esp with the speed of them in the last few km ???
Sup
Kioko? That's a kenyan name but not a runners name😂
I can
Not an easy course either
White Man can jump.
Cooper Teare had a bad race
Obviously a great runner but the guy’s 24. He should be running pro and is definitely a pro level runner but shouldn’t be running in college still.
After reading Outliers and seeing how age difference gives huge biological advantages, seeing Mantz win isn't as impressive. Dude basically has 4 years of physical development ahead of the field
3 years because a normal senior would be 22 and he is 24 almost 25.
He took a 2 year break from running to serve a mission. I would say the other athletes have the advantage because they never stepped away from running for a couple of years. He had to essentially find his form again once he returned.
@@davidbaldwin3599 just because you stopped running, doesn’t mean you stop aging. It’s a lot easier to get back to form at 20 years old than at 18. Just because he went on a mission changes nothing.
@@ianbusche1471 We can agree to disagree. Some athletes that serve missions return a shell of their former self and do not return to form. Keep in mind, he did not run while on a mission. It's not like he took 2 years off and continued running.
If it's such an advantage, maybe other schools should start sending their student athletes off on sabbaticals or volunteer missions in 3rd world countries and see how it works out.
Props to Connor and it's nice seeing a white guy win sometimes lol. His running form looks so choppy that it surprises me beating these runners that look so smooth next to him.
Where's the outrage? That mustache isn't natural -- no way! How can clean shaven or naturally trimmed athletes hope to compete against such an advantage? If not stopped, facial hair doping will ruin our sport.
