She said in an interview that Kersee told her to take it out hard and see how she felt. He’s one of the all time great coaches and she’s one of the all time great athletes. I trust that they have a plan and that there is a method to their madness. It’s the first race of the season and this is the first open 400’that she’s run in years. This is far from a finished product. I’d image her race looks a lot different by year end 💁🏾♂️
This is the correct analysis. Syd will be the world leader by end of season.
I don't think the coach is good for either Mclaughlin or Mu. If they keep losing, both of them will change their coach very soon. On the other hand, Britton Wilson may have a good chance to win 400mF in some major events, even without a star coach.
@@trumplostlol3007 I would beg to differ. Doing this you can see where you are and adjust. Where your body breaks down and what points and adjust. Not trying your hardest leaves too much uncertainty. Track athletes train milestones. Let’s say she took this to film. Coach says hey run a 23.00 this time on your open 200 that’s what they train for. It’s a bit more complicated because you get 50-100-150 splits as well to train for that 200. But they train repetitiveness for those split times and adjust. And this is for the whole race. Knowing your body’s limit is 100% the right play. With the exception of bolt and shacari the play is always to get out fast and hold the lead. It’s always easier to maintain at the last stretch than to speed up because you’ve already exerted that much energy
Excuses. Excuses
Yeah he told her to lose
What folks need to realize is that Sydney going out hard wasn't an error, but an experiment. I do remember when Bobby Kersee had Felix do the same in Rabat 2015, at which she only managed to do it in 51 secs. By later that year, she went on to claim her first WC title in a new pb of 49.26. No one saw this coming, and most had favoured Shaunae Miller to win since she was already running 49s. Y'all gotta trust the process and know that Kersee is setting her up for something major! Kudos to Paulino and Naser as well. This is going to be a herculean battle amongst those three at their peaks.
See link to the aforementioned race by Felix
th-cam.com/video/GHQrXRDZZXM/w-d-xo.html
Yep that’s what I thought. I think her coach said go all out gun to tape. See where you’re at. She absolutely could’ve gone tactical and run48.9/49 but it felt like a time trial.
This is exactly what I'm thinking after rewatching the race.
Just said the same. The WR looks on to me
@@jasonmendelli6023 Maybe next summer in Paris.
I was actually going to propose that as a likely scenario. When i ran T&F I remember coaches doing that especially with their star athletes, and especially early in the season, in order to test their make or break points. They would use that data to further develop the training and race strategy of the individual athlete.
The fact that she still went sub 50 after starting that fast, is actually hugely impressive. She did this on purpose for sure. She's training for the WR and wanted to see how long she could maintain that speed. She didn't go for the win on purpose.
I saw another commenter say that her coach instructed her to go out balls to the walls to see how she feels. It was an experiment
What does WR mean? Is it so difficult to write out a word that usually means "wide receiver"? Nice communication.
@@dennysoinski4287 wtf are you saying
@@dennysoinski4287 lol you trolling? This is Track and Field. WR can only mean one thing. WORLD RECORD...
He’s gotta be trolling 😂😂 ain’t no way he thinks it means wide receiver
Sydney didn't run to break any record today. She ran to train for breaking the record on a bigger stage. This is Diamond League.
It is possible to control the time you run in races? What is your evidence?
@@pascalarancibia5199
Of course it is. Everyone else ran optimized pacing to control the time they ran.
This was a training exercise with sub-optimal pacing, resulting in a time she can obviously smash with normal pacing.
If that's true she is in trouble as first place would be doing the same thing all these excuses everyone is making for her is just funny
No pinch face ran to lose, which she did. Beautiful Paulino passed her like she was standing still, no competition
@@DG-iu8ck Not really excuses, it just is what it is. Also it’s literally her opening 400m of the season, not sure what you’re expecting of her. We know sub 49 is well within her possibilities with the sub 48 4x4 splits she’s dropped.
Strategy speculation. I think Sydney will not change the pace of her first 200m, but work on her strength over the last 200. That's what she did in the hurdles, and that is the only strategy that brakes long standing World Records. Let's go Sydney!
That's not the only way to go, ask Michael Johnson that, a dude capable of running 19.3 but splitting 21.2 to he's 400 record, and also is the best 400m sprinter ever too.
Hey how do you suggest she work on her strength in the last 200m please reply
B R E A K
I don't think so she'll have to ease it a bit. 22.6 is just silly. Having a 22.6 followed by a 27.3 isn't the best way to run. Even if she could get that to a 26 that's still not the best way she could run. Getting out in 23 makes more sense
I think 23.00+24.59 would be the "best" way to break the WR. 22.66 is a tad fast, that's like if you're trying for a low 47.
Marita Koch’s 200m split was a hand timed 22.4 seconds and her 300m split was 34.1 seconds during her world record run this is an indication of what Sydney is up against if she is to break the world record which some people think she will but others doubt for good reason.
That record shouldnt even be standing, She was on drugs and it was admitted. She was just on a drug at the time that couldnt be detected in those days. So knowing this idk why they still allow that record to stand, that is truly unbelievable
Her first 300m is too fast. She doesn't know how to control her pace without those hurdles.
@@trumplostlol3007 Makes you wonder what kind of training her coach was doing with her all this time???
Yall so quick to judge literally her first 400 in years and first race in 4 months
@@justtester_9962 I don't think her coach is good strategically. Not letting her run in competitions for so long to prepare for some bigger races is always not a good idea. And she ran 60m which clearly shows that she wanted to improve her pace early on. But she is not running indoor 400mF, so what's the point?
If your goal is to run 48 flat, this is how you run early meets. You go out fast, and each meet you hold that speed a little bit longer, until you develop your lactic acid tolerance to the point where you can finish the entire 400. I'm confident she could have won this race if that was her goal.
Que buena broma, ella hubiese ganado FACIL está carrera de no ser por la Chica Caribeña, ella les ganó a todas las demás FACIL, pero lo que ella y ustedes no ven (o no quieren ver) es que hubo alguien que le dijo claramente que NO...
Ahora vienen con el absurdo pretexto de que ella no ganó la carrera porque "buscaba el récord y que así lo quiso", PAMPLINAS😢
So glad she got this first race out.. Stoked to see her improvements..Just counting the months/years till she breaks the 400m WR👌
Youngsters WR holder indoor (49.2) Femke Bol or Britton Wilson (outdoors 49.1) will break it first.
@@QuamfyMarc You did not mention youngster Rhasidat Adeleke who beat Britton Wilson this weekend in the NCAA women’s 400m final in 49.20 seconds which is faster than both Wilson and Femke Bol has ever run and at aged 20 younger than both of them.
It's not going to happen. Sorry!
So Mclaughlin, who is 400mH WR holder, didn't know or think she'd die by going out that fast? Come on - that race was a time trail - she even said it in the post-race interview. Syd has nothing to lose.
exactly. Im sure Bobby told her to relax for the last 100m and not worry about the win
@@smoothnubian
Yeah and she let off the gas big time when Paulino appeared....her posture and foot strike show it clearly. Didn't even push it when Naser started approaching.
She's gonna go sub-49 probably at USAs and sub-48.5 at Worlds.
@@efisgpr So you think she intentionally let off the gas? Why would she do that intentionally?
Or seems she instead went out as hard as she could then gassed out (but using it to gauge future potential) ?
@@efisgpr you must be her biggest fan boy going on all the excuses you have been making for her fact is she went out to fast and had nothing left at the end and was beaten by a much better 400m runner your just but hurt that your favourite girl lost 😂😂
You can tell that you’ve never ran track , if you did you would know the two races you mentioned take totally different strategies, and breathing techniques…but I digress.
What the narrator didn’t mention is even though she gave out at the end, the time STILL ended beating her personal best time. Thus what we see as getting slower, it’s actually was her speeding up.
It is her first run at 400 m for a long time, and I'm confident we will see much fast times later this season from Sydney McLaughlin.
I think Sydney did that intentionally to test her strength and speed endurance. Probably her next 400m will be a negative split. Greatness is in her blood. Something greater is about to happen from her❤
A negative split 400 = a slow 400.
Only from around 1000 meters on up do even or negative splits lead to optimal times.
Yes competitive runners intentionally lose, great strategy
@@undisputedtruth6176// "corrió a perder" solo porque UNA SOLA CHICA LA PULVERIZÓ, ya que si hubiese sido por las otras competidoras ELLA "no hubiese corrido a perder"...
NASER IS BACK!! That is such exciting news for the 400m
Much as I appreciate the hard work you put into this channel, you do get carried away. In this race, Sydney was simply one of 7 athletes who did not win the race, and many of these 7 athletes achieved SB's and PB's and yet did not rate a single mention.
Nah, this showed a lot more than that.
@@efisgpr it didn't
IKR - Someone else wins ... but $dyney $ydney $ydney ... Amerikuh and it's obsession with GOATs and individual glory
@@bunhaymeen4987
And what will you say if she does 49.1, then 48.5 soon? We can all already see the writing on the wall......even if you can't.
@@jagatsevakc
Who had the most global golds and WRs in this field? SYDNEY.... she's also the fastest
We also need Femke Bol in the line up
This is a really smart opening race. Her coach instructed her to test her speed endurance by going hard for 300m and holding on. She executed perfectly.
Her season is right on track and expect amazing come August and September.
And you need to look up Innocent Egbunike and watch his 400m approach.
Can you explain what is the purpose behind doing this? Really hard for 300m does what, shows she can keep up a pace that fast and now she will train to maintain that in the last 100m as well ??
@@BollywoodMediaOnline I'm not her coach but I think this was a pure test of speed endurance at this stage of the season (first outing). Meaning, learning how far can she hold form at close to max effort right now. I think the data they have for her first 200m will inform decisions for the remainder of the season. Based on this showing, I think she'll get to 48.5 comfortably this summer. Although we all know she's capable of astounding results.
@@jamesahilliard Thanks for your thoughts - yes she is AMAZING !! Excited to see what she runs taking this information and tactically planning/preparing going forward
@@BollywoodMediaOnline #encourage ❤
What Syd did was very good, not crazy.
TRP with the classic exaggeration clickbait
Helps make us watch and it works!
Her first 300 was crazy
No it was crazy. She went out on WR pace over the first 150m. You have to be crazy to do that in your opener. So crazy is a fitting title.
I think the way she sprinted the opening 200 could maybe be described as crazy, but yeah this channel's titels are a bit silly. I mostly look to see if I am interested in the athletes/distance/event and ignore all the buzzwords
She went out to run the world record and ended up with a pb nicely done
S/o Paulino for continuing to run her race, in the face of that shock and Awe campaign from Sydney. I also thought Salwa NAsser did well too for her first race back.
This is like Salwa 4th race. She’s been steady going down
Nasar is a doper. She can touch grass.
Yea they’re closer Naser and Paulino do their damage in the last 150
@@mssha1980 And it was Syd's first....and she did the pacing all wrong on purpose....and Salwa still couldn't catch her.
@@efisgpr Why did Syd do the pacing wrong and go faster at the beginning?
Congratulations Paulhino👏👏👏
Put Femke Bol in the mix. That would be amazing.
what a great race. can't wait to see what syd does next.
It was a 1st race for her 400 for the season. Paulino is WORLD class and favored for metals wherever and whenever she runs. She had more experience thus far. If Sydney keeps up her pace for all 400 and doesn’t hit the lactaid wall, she’d be alone in 1st. She and Kersee were probing and feeling it out. Wait til Worlds in Budapest. I’m looking forward to that
Season opener for Sydney. Pretty impressive. Let's see where she's at towards the end of the outdoor season. More training and learning from this race in what she did in the opening 200m will make her better. How much better? We shall see.
Losing is not impressive
@@undisputedtruth6176 Neither is your lack of knowledge
This race was a learning curve for Sydney and her coach. That was the opening race in a new event, running without hurdles was a true test to the 400m.
It's like going from the long jump to the triple jump.
Once she and her coach make the adjustments, she will learn how to distribute her speed. Give her time to master the event. She did run 49.71, impressive!
She should do the same thing again. The mind and body will adjust and she will avoid hitting the wall. The problem today was she tried something new for the first time and the body responded with lactic wall. The body will adjust and so will the mind. The whole field went crazy and the runner most prepared was the winner.
Thanks. I always enjoy your breakdowns of these events.
Sydney was wearing flats not spikes 🤣
The Wayde 43.03 is the model for world record times. So yes, that first 200 pace is here to stay for Sydney, maybe faster come champs.
😆 Lord. I want to juxtapose the comments from the last SYD video, to these. All the "she's breaking the record" and "she's unstoppable". And then the press conference where no one asked Paulino any q?s, only to see Paulino reel her in. Welcome to the big show SYD. We are like 3 weeks away from USAs, and Britton ran the flat 400 in 49.36 @ NCAAs -- IN PRELIMS. That will be the show worth watching. But that's also at SYD's fave (nearly exclusive?) track -- Hayward. That is, unless SYD drops out of 400 because she doesn't know what she'll run -- per her post race interview.
I say that Syd did exaxtly what coach wanted her to do. Maybe feel what it's like to go out that speed, and keep it steady the last 200 to know where she is and then go from there. No need to go ALL OUT and get hurt or run some crazy time so quickly.
Always best to take your time and develope your craft. Andre De Grasse does similar type performances throughout the year.
Nice vid again. Especislly about the 300m too. I csn tell Syd is still not ready to shoe EXACTLY how fast she can go.
Peace N Love
Finally, finally you said her name right. It took you long enough.
It was an excellent opener for Sidney but honestly I find it kind of disturbing giving more attention to the second than to the winner of a race
Not really! remember this is her 400m flat debut so everyone wanted to see what she could do.
She is the GOAT in her event. Thus, a bigger star and bigger story. Also, her opener was 0.6 faster than Paulino's opener.
@@efisgpr goat in the hurdles not in the flat. Paulino is a much bigger draw than syd in the 400, at least for now, and even if it's 0.6 faster she didn't win, doesnt mean shit if you can't keep up your speed
@@bunhaymeen4987 LMAO you're gonna have very little to say after she beats Paulino's PB soon.....
@@efisgpr// eso decían para esta carrera y hasta ahora solo suman Fé y Esperanzas...
With the way this went, I'd actually love to see Sydney compete in a 200m dash. Then she can truly go all-out and show everyone how fast she really is. I wouldn't be surprised if she goes under 22s
One world record at time bud 😂😂😂
@@helloman3676 not sure if she has the 200m world record in her, but I'm willing to bet she'd be competitive. My guess would be something like a 21.8~21.9 for her
Pinch face can’t compete, she’s a cherry picker
She’s going to have to get to 21.8 to get that record. Probably even 21.7
She did 22.39 at 18....ahead of even Miller-Uibo at that age.
Gabby Thomas did 22.38 that season and is 2-3 years older....but became the #3 200 runner all-time 3 years later. Syd came within 0.01 of her in 2018 but was just way too dominant at 400mH to switch.
Now, she is the undisputed GOAT at 400mH and we can see her branch out finally.
She also long jumped 18'6" at 14 and 20'6" at 17.
She can also juggle while riding a unicycle... seriously.
I hope she does some 200s too. That 60m in Boston this year showed she is a true speedster. Also got 11.07 100m with only slightly excessive wind (+2.1) at 18yo.
I think Sydney and her coach now have a great baseline to assess what pace she needs to run in the opening 200 to break 47.5. I think she'll break 48 in Oregon and then anything can happen in Budapest.
Great breakdown of facts, that's why I like this channel ❤️😎 . Sydney has to make adjustments..her time in this race is very impressive!
reminds me of the time in highschool when our 800m guy got hurt, and i was chosen to fill in for him even though i only ever ran the 100 and 200. and in my first 400m, because i had no idea how to run the race, i ran my first lap in 48 seconds. when i started coming around the first bend on the second lap, i was thinking to myself what a grave miscalculation i made, since i had no idea how to run this race, as i wondered how i was even going to be able to finish. my second lap was well over one minute total, and by the time i crossed the finished line i blacked out, lol.
Sydney was not wearing spikes she had on flats
I would love to see more 300 meter races they are awesome to watch
And Naser breaking 50 again too 👏
That she hit the wall so hard and looked so compsed tells you so much of her strength. Probably from hurdles. She'd do well to run the 200m now!
I was wondering, why doesn't she run the 200m!!??
Thank you for the breakdown. It was very informative and well produced. As I watched this race unfold and saw McLaughlin tie up at the end, I wondered what message she was sending to the other competitors. Was she demonstrating how she plans to improve anaerobic capacity to deliver that pace throughout a race? I have trouble seeing it as a mistake in judgement or pacing. She is too disciplined a runner to make those mistakes. Of course, I could be wrong.
Going out that fast is a coaching decision. If she’s gonna break the world record she has to have those fast early splits and still finish strong, in the world record Koch ran a 22.4 for the first 200m, Syd just want a 22.6 in her first race. Syd 4 years to get this record. Her finish will come in time the same way it did it the hurdles. This girl will finally take down Marita Koch world record. I truly believe that.
I think Sydney McLaughlin has 48-mid to 48-low potential for this year. It usually takes either a lot of experience with that race (which she doesn't have), or more likely several races to find that sweet spot for pushing the pace, yet having enough left for a strong finish and ending up with your best time. Now that she has a bit of racing experience under her belt, we'll probably see her times dip precipitously as the season evolves.
Ithats kinda like saying a mile specialist doesn't have experience running the 1500
Plus she's run plenty of 4x4 relays
@@proverbalizer Agree. She knows how to run a 400 to win... and her times will get close to 48 this year, I'd hope.... depending on how many races she enters. and whether she switches back to the hurdles regularly.
@@rogerbarnett8412 I thinks she's gonna try the super difficult double in the world championships... We'll see... either way, I'm sure her and her coach are focused on peaking toward the US trails and WC
@@rogerbarnett8412 If you consider that from 2018 to 2022 Sydney has made significant progress in the 400mh and she would also have progressed in the 400m. Considering that prior to this year, the last time she ran the 400m was in 2018, the most reliable record of her 400m progression from 2019 to 2022 would be her 4x400m splits.
In 2018 when her 400mH PB was 53.82 she ran a 400m PB of 50.07, in 2019 when her 400mH PB was 52.23 she split 48.70 in the 4x400m and in 2022 when her 400mH PB was 50.68 she split 47.91 in the 4x400m.
I'm not saying that her 400m PB is 47.91, what I'm saying is her 2022 4x400m split of 47.91 is a more accurate reflection of her 400m progression from 2019 to 2022.
Her Paris DL 400m PB of 49.71 is very misleading because it wasn't the results of a race where Sydney was trying to win, it was the result of a training session conducted under racing conditions at the Paris DL.
@@proverbalizer Sydney is indeed planning on peaking USATF Trials where she intends to attack the 400m WR and at World Championships in Budapest where she intends to lower her own 400mH WR. you may only see her race once before USATF Trials if there is anything specific that Bobby need her to work on.
Great breakdown of this race!

Wow 😮great breakdown. I was so disappointed she lost but now what this information I’m so excited for her. I see her one day breaking the wr
Quality athletes and good coaches learn something useful from every race.

As soon as Sydney gets into complete shape,... she will take down the world record. 👍💯💪
Loves this breakdown. This was a Learning race. She will be focused on learning each stage of the race. We will watch her destroy the world record. Afterward, I would love to see her go back and break 50 in the 400m Hurdles. Needless to say I am in awe of this woman and know she is capable of generational records.
This is just the beginning of season's speed work. Her peak speed is yet to come. She will certainly come back strongly.
From what I've seen recently and Bol breaking the 400m indoor World Record with 49.26 things are shaping nicely. Cant see anyone running sub 48s this year though.
Fast and gorgeous! What a combo!
First 400 in years on a stage like that and ran a 49 sec, she is running 47 sec by the WC! She needs a few races in the 400 and she will be unbeatable! What I love most about her SHE HATES LOSING!
😂
People didn't give Paulino who had just ran sub-49 enough respect. You need to know how to pace yourself for the 400, expecting syd to be masterful enough to and fit enough to run sub-49 having not raced the distance in some years was wild.

@@samueltullis806 FRL
Those wavelights help with the records. Much easier if you know exactly how fast you need to go.
It reminds me of the Sydney and Adila competition. Both runners only got better with each race. This new match up with Paulino should see the 400 WR fall hard and Sydney pulling the entire field with her.

Sydney has to beat them first.

Thank you for finally pronouncing her name correctly :-) I'm not sure what caused the change, but probably not my comment from 6 months ago :-)

Credits should be going to Paulino.
Not McLaughlin
Sydney pb with a bad race strategy. Now imagine what she will do if she runs the race the right way
From around 4 minutes 50 he does exactly that
fr, people and their favourites
@@stephentrader9142 why do you only think Sydney will get better and do great things ?
What about Paulino
I bet you
She will run 48 flat
She is obviously about to leave everyone behind. We've seen this movie with Muhammad.
Sydney could break 48:60 if she follows the method of coach Clyde Hart. Fast start. Back off at 150. Start building speed at 260. Keep form for the final 80. 3 Olympic gold medals from 3 of Clyde's protégé in the 400m. Success speaks for itself. 😊
The Maestro is setting her up for a WR pace. That's what this was all about. She now knows exactly what she has to do. And that's what she said in the interview after. I'm surprised TRP doesn't see this. It's very obvious when you think about it. She's not running for medals or to win races. She's going directly and solely for the WR. And after seeing that race there's no doubt she's going to shatter it.
Agreed
100% truth. So TRP should have focused her splits with Marita Koch and that other dude who had the record before her.
@@igloozoo3771her second 100 was faster than Koch when she set the world record.
22.6 is pace for 45s 23low is a better option for her
@@igloozoo3771 Exactly. I expect he'll take a second look at those numbers.
mclaughlin is going for something even crazier
She didn't time herself well but what's clear is that she's frighteningly fast
Sydney s goal are always goat level. That fast start is no mistake. She will get better as the season progresses
3 world records in one meet is ridiculous
Where was Bol?
Syd is a work in progress, she will only get better and better.❤
If sydney runs the first 200 in 23.30instead of 22.66 she should be able to finish strong
A very interesting figure in this race is the 3rd placed. Naser just made her comeback, after a long suspension. So there was a big question mark regarding her, and what she is capable of after all that time. She has actually the fastest of all PBs of all that took part, and by a massive margin. I wonder if she can catch up to her old greatness. The fact she ran immediately under 50s, shows she is someone to watch out for (again). She is still pretty young as well :)
Objectively speaking, Marileidy Paulino had a bad start, which meant that for a moment she was running in the last position, if she had had a better start, she probably would have done a minimum of 49.05, but the most important thing is that thank God she was the winner of this race.
Sydney always won our heart ❤️
I think you’re missing something and possibly mistaken too!! What SM-L did was likely and exactly what both she and her coach wanted!! This was an assessment of her ability, to see exactly what she’s got, working with and where to focus for the future!! Technically she only has to concentrate on the last 50M, how to overcome the lactic acid barrier and maintain or possibly improve the closing/finish!! The hurdles is a a repetitious effort and event, methodical if you will!! 123 over, 123 over, that’s what she did in the flat here; steady pace(her pace) can do 300+ meters and keep her in front!! As seen only one could catch her, along with the assessment of her effort, she et al now needs to factor in others like the winner and make the adjustments accordingly!! I’m sure nobody’s gonna want to go after SM-L, which means they are gambling that she’ll tie-up, I wouldn’t take that gamble!! Consider the 400 flat on notice, this is gonna change how it’s approached going forward!! If none can stay with SM-L for the 350 mark, they would need to pace themselves exactly right because SM-L is likely to improve!! By the way…how about SM-L in a 200!?
This was no error on Sydney's part. I tried for 4 years in college at Florida State to run a sub 4-minute mile running 4:00.5 three times and 4:01.x more times than I can count because I constantly had a shitty third lap split because I was always afraid of not having enough to finish strong (or possibly afraid of hurting too much 😨) . Finally in mid season of my senior year at the Florida relays in Gainesville, Coach Long told me to just go all out on the backstretch of the third lap and finish with whatever I have left. I ran splits of 59.2, 60.1, 56.4, 61.2 to get there at 3:56.9. I was run down by two superior runners in the last 50 yards, but I had finally reached my goal and beat some guys that had beaten me for many years. Sometimes you have to experiment and be willing to fail if it doesn't work.
Congratulations on going under 4 Minutes, as nobody could do that prior to 1954 (at least not officially). You would have beaten Arne Andersson and Gunder Hagg until they got shoes like you and ran on your track just to beat you like those 2 "Superior Runners"! lol!
Their best times of 4:01.6 and 4:01.4 were done with inferior foot-ware, track and training but if you were at that level, my hat is off to u!
It reminds me of the mission Lieke Klaver got from her coach. To just attack the first 200, while everyone was sure she had to pace herself better. All of those people were wrong, you shouldnt pace yourself, you should work on maintaining your speed better. Needless to say it worked for Klaver, and Im sure it will work out for McLaughlin.
True but not for WR. Maybe in coming years. Femke, Britton and Nasser have also something to say!
Sydney is capable of 47.8s this season with these revelations. And as always, excellent analysis by Total Running Production.
However, there are to inaccurate notions.
1. Sydney "didn't" run 22.6s in 200m but first 200m of 400m. She ran on lane 4, meaning her first 200m bend is 'shorter' than that of open 200m. Many sprinters would run faster than their best over 200m when running the first 200m of 400m except when they run it on lane one or two, which have similar bend distances like the open 200m race.
2. Sydney's open 300m estimate is underrated/underestimated! She'll definitely run better than 34.9s if she runs 300m from lane 2 or 3. But might still run a 34.9 if she ran it on lanes 6 to 8.
Open 300m race is not a standard event. 300m of a quatermile is ran from Curve to end on 100m start. Meaning the amount of bend each athlete in all the 8 or 9 lanes run are the same. Innermost lane (one) has even first and 2nd bends. Lane 2 has slightly shorter first than the 2nd,then on and on till the outermost lane with shortest first and longest 2nd bends.
If 300m is going to be a standard event, it would need a SPECIAL 300m track that is staggered just like the 200m or 400m races on standard tracks. Remember Bailey and MJ 150m race was staged on a special track with 75m bend and 75m straight.
If a 300m race is staged between the 3 leading ladies in Paris DL, on a standard track from back straight, WHOEVER runs on the innermost lane most likely would win with all things being equal.
Meanwhile, Salwa would win the 400m at Budapest WC.
Quite simply it was a fascinating encounter.
There's of course much (much) more to 400m running than many think.
Anyone who watched [ and listened] to the great Michael Johnson will know.
She have the world record in her system!
I would have like to seen a comparison of her 200m and 300m splits from this race to her WR with hurdles as well as comparison of her last 100m between the two races. It is rare to see her hit the wall like that in the last 75m.
She never goes out that fast in big hurdles races.
@@rogerbarnett8412 With the exception of her last WR. She went out very hard. She also looked a lot leaner at the World Championships last year than at the beginning of the season so once she tapers and peaks correctly we may see something huge from her in Budapest.
Britton Wilson is still my favorite to win USA trials. She has a grit and determination to her to finish a 400 hard as she’s shown indoors and outdoors. Both her and McLaughlin have to decide which events to focus on, as they both do 400/400H. But this year the world 4x400 record could be going down at the WC
When are you posting the 100M Lyles run?!?
She give now all the others hope. Her coach speaks about WR.
Marita Koch's 200m split of 22.45 during her 400m 47.60 world record in 1985 is faster than Sydney Mclaughlin's 200m split you are talking about in this video.
Sorry bro, she's going to keep that 22 and add the finish you are looking for. she's a beast. Massive WR ahead.
Sydney can break 49 with more races and she will get a good adaptation from that opener and going too hard for the first half
Don't forget the WC relay split. It was under 48.....
She should lowkey try the open 2 now, after watching her easily jog that 22.6
Brutal video
Great job with the pronunciation of McLaughlin.
Boy, the title of these videos really get me sometime. 🤔
She came second yet the focus is on her. How about we talk about the actual winner and the time she ran
This was a training race. She and Kersee have said as much. She will get much faster.
That's what her coach told her to do.... RUN the first 300 and let's see what ya have to go home...she will get even better... its a tactic to see where you are... and it makes ppl hit the wall closer and closer to the finish line....this is amazing work
Last year, Shaunae Miller-Uibo went out in 22.70s during the 400m in the Monaco Diamond League, and that was one of the fastest 200m splits in my mind, so yeah, I doubt anyone except the WR holder (22.45) has gone out faster.
Still early in the season. Time to adjust and adapt. Let’s go Sydney!
I think Sydney will break the world record this year, however Fenke Bol is right there as well, as she has shown in the indoor events. Its not only an adjustment period, but also to test out how fast of a speed she can sustain and if this could be extended. I think she is too experienced of an athlete, to not have her eye on the Worldchampionships and the Olympics, rather then an early season diamond league event. This was always a first test that would serve as a measuring stick. In that context it was correct to go all out initially and see how long that can be sustained.
She's still a new to the race like that's because her specialty is the hurdle...give her time and she's will make a comeback again ❤❤..
😭 she is just playing around she had on flats. She did not have one spikes.
I dont get how you choose whether to use quick or fast...
This race was more about Sydney pushing her limits and see where her body will tighten up at
I think Marita Koch ran 22.5 for the WR run?
In a 400 meters race there is room for strategy. It looks that Paulina strategy makes the result.
She is fast and strong, has lots of wins in her lifetime, and she has an amazing coach. There is a PLAN. Wait for it ............
I don't think for a second this was a tactical mistake. I imagine coach kersey was gauging something so they could identify certain markers that she needs to hit etc. Cheers trp, great vid as always. P.S: Britt wilson coming second to rhasidat adeleke in the NCAA! I did not see that coming.
Sydney was not wearing spikes. She had on flats.
@@wyndell300 Really? That's a good spot if it's true & very interesting.
