A good runner always clocks herself. She is running alone never looking back and a very focused runner. She is a joy to watch.

😎 From a old 74 year old miler OUTSTANDING JOB!!! You demoralize the competition with that strategy 👍👍

Amazing! I’ll be following her. She’ll be breaking world records soon!

Another special one!!! And as a SOPH, ran faster than Valby's 5000 NCAA win this past year! WOW!

In future race vids, please consider extending the video by 15 - 30 seconds to show all of the competitors as they finish. (4/22/2024)

@Jdlc2025 Ай бұрын

The video is about the second fastest 1600m in Texas not about the race as a whole.

@wtcashel Ай бұрын

When you put up a race against other human beings, it’s respectful to show at least the next 3 to 5 finishers.

@bwayne40004 Ай бұрын

And showing a little of the 'action' behind the running 150 feet ahead of everyone else. It was all one girl running, not a 1600 race.

This video is not about them. But about her.

No one watched the video to see the slow runners, we watch it to see the fastest.

@@lukecarroll19 umm that's not the same 🤔 That's like comparing Sha Carri to Jackson Sha Carri is faster in the 100 but Jackson is faster in the 200. Sadie is faster in the 1600& mile than Leachman according to the times ran🤷🏾‍♂️ Both ran their times essentially by themselves and Sadie ran faster. We're talking about the 1600 in this thread not the 5k, lol

@TimMarshall-er9qk Ай бұрын

@@lukecarroll19 Agree. For only being a Soph, Beth is much more versatile than Engelhardt. Will be fun watching Sadie after she gets to Raleigh and train with Tuohy on ocassion. But Leachman, may just re-write EVERYTHING!!

@jeffjeff8562 Ай бұрын

I couldn't see it for a while, but the reason she's so good is look at her feet on her back kick, the bottom of her foot is pointed straight at the sky. Her stride is different than anyone else I've ever seen. Maybe that's the reason.

Leachman is smooth and not a lot movement. The other girls had lots of hip and arm movement. Nice.

@beagle7622 Ай бұрын

Elizabeth moves her upper body a lot less than most of her competitors. It’s not easy I think but saves a lot of energy. She is extremely impressive.

The wording of this video title is unclear to me. Was this the second fastest 1600 meter time EVER at this school or Ever in the sport?

Sad...North East can't afford a clock at the finish line? Elizabeth Leachman, baby! More power to ya. I'm a fan. Hope you find that perfect existence of training on the track coupled with the cross training Parker Valby has shined with. I'm no runner but I hope you stay off cross country courses & sharp, slanted indoor tracks for injury sake. I'm old, went to start exercising starting w/walking. The sidewalk I used was slanted, in a month I couldn't lift my right leg at the knee joint due to that right-leaning sidewalk the right heel had to reach further to every step ala the indoor short tracks turns

Her coach needs to be out there shouting the splits at her. She checked her watch 5-6x and that will definitely slow you down. She might have broken the record if it werent for that.

@phillippitts6294 Ай бұрын

@@sharonb537 it probably did slow her down. If it was a h.r. monitor. She might have been checking so she didn’t blow up in the last hundred. Maybe she didn’t turn off the alarm for the monitor. I would not be surprised to see this young athlete in the Olympics one day .

@binkyxz3 Ай бұрын

Checking a watch is more reliable than maybe not hearing a coach, plus she was checking twice per lap (coach would have to run back and forth across the field).

U should probably settle down Beavis bc it's April it wasnt competitive and she also raced an 800

Congratulation tilinfinity, that's a fast mile. I ran a 4:36 as a senior and got 8th in district. Now the ladies make it look easy. In the 80s, it was very rare to see a HS girl under 5:00. I think Leachman may go under 4:30 before she graduates.
