Andrew Wheating Runs 3:59.11 at New Balance

[MegaBeanz]

He makes it look so easy lol

[trackguy2]

"does in the guy in the lead right now think hes in shape?" lol.. i love spectator commentary

[ap1234512]

interesting little fact about the race, andrew wanted to go 3:55 and overphsyced himself, which is why he now races to win and not for time

[FallenhasaDeathwish]

@dchartier1 -- do you have a hardon for wheating or something because you just dont leave his videos alone.

what the fuck do you run in the 800 and 1500/1600? probably some slow-ass pathetic times, right?

[smokey10able]

chicken s##t racing... how is this?? he runs solidly for the whole race its the clowns at the front shoot themselves in the foot .. in 800ms example oylmpic trials 2008 whats the point the leaders go out in 50secs. Do they not get the picture its too fast if they do that pace again the get 1.40 world record.symmonds and wheating smart runners run high 51 to 53 and repeat the same in the second lap.its the front runners slowing up from going too hard and they finish strong chicken dont think so

[dchartier1]

@smokey10able

And HOW fast did KIPKETER go out in when he SET the WORLD RECORD? 48.3 in his FIRST record, then low-49 in his SECOND record, and he was RIGHT IN THE FRONT for both WITH A RABBIT. Seemed to WORK for HIM, right?

Wheating goes out SLOW not for TACTICS but because he DOESN'T HAVE THE BALLS to take it out HARD. So he SITS BACK and lets the OTHERS GUYS do all the WORK and STEALS THE RACE in the end. He's just plain CHICKEN SH*T!

[ap1234512]

@dchartier1 the 800m is a tactical race... its supposed to be run like that even if it is the hardest to do tactics and be successful in, its 1 thing when he gets going with 200m to go, IMO thats fine and hes not even sitting on people either, in order to chicken shit the race you need to SIT on the persons shoulder, not HANG ON like he always does which is why his races are so close. unless ur going for a personal best you race the 800m like this. its another thing if he kicks by w/ 50-100m

[xxxDAPROBLEMxxx]

Andy! Andy! He and german f.= the main two hopes for the future of USA distance. Wheating more 2012, german more 2016.

[westsenecawest21]

Amen bro...Andy Wheating is going to break the american 1500m record. And then shit on African competition in London. No surprise to see gold round that kids neck.

[linglingjr]

Running indoor track seems twice as hard

[Lucky77725Pheonixris]

This was amazing:D I met the guy for a few secs to get his autograph @ the pre classics this yr. He destroyed that time though he is s real great runner.

And for the guy that's flaming him shut your ass up your getting all your comments from Prefontaine. They went to the same college he will be remembered not just bc they went to the same school but bc he's an excellent runner same for Chris Solinsky & Galen Rupp. And btw Solinsky has an American record and he too was behind a lot of runners.

[bpfastfeet25]

4:06------the first time he looks tired

[leadpencil96]

Love you Andy :)

[ironbubble]

"fuck you dyestat" hahahah lol they tried to cut it out but epic failed hahahaha

[TheMazungo]

yeah Wheating is kind of an olympian athlete dchartier1

[slippingintothevoid]

dchartier1, you obviously have no idea how to run track successfully.

[dchartier1]

I'm glad to see that Wheating finally had the BALLS to GO OUT HARD FROM THE START rather than SIT BACK and STEAL THE RACE AT THE END from the guy who does ALL THE WORK. Too bad the guys he followed WERE ONLY RABBITS. It shows that he's still too CHICKEN SH*T to go hard from the start when he's up against REAL COMPETITION.

This guy will NEVER get ANYWHERE internationally in the half unless he starts going BALLS TO THE WALL straight from the gun. Let's see if he has the GUTS!

[Pay2Bad]

seriously u just follow his vids to flame him?

[dchartier1]

I DON'T mean to flame Wheating. It's just that I get SO MAD when I watch his vids and see that he DOESN'T have the CLASS to run a REAL and FAIR race. Why can't he go out HARD and see what he can REALLY do instead of being a CHICKEN SH*T and DRAGGING off the guys who DO THE REAL WORK? He has a bit of talent, but he'll NEVER BE REMEMBERED if he doesn't start LAYING IT ALL on the track and go BALLS OUT from the gun.

[Pay2Bad]

u have a very good point

[dsk803]

@dchartier1 dude ur a loser...just shut up cause no one asked for your idiotic opinion

[dchartier1]

@dsk803 YOU just SHUT UP cause NO ONE asked for YOUR idiotic opinion. Loser! Hernandez RULES, Wheating DROOLS! Muwahahahahaha!

[xxxDAPROBLEMxxx]

@dchartier1 you're plain chicken shit. Someone watched a few too many prefontaine movies...

[dchartier1]

@xxxDAPROBLEMxxx

This has NOTHING to do with PREFONTAINE. Wheating is CHICKEN SH*T plain and simple. LANANNA should teach him PROPER RACING TACTICS.

[zacdougherty1]

@dchartier1

you are an idiot lol. youre basically saying he's a bitch for not running somebody elses race?

[dchartier1]

@zacdougherty1

No, YOU'RE an IDIOT for not understanding my point AT ALL. I'm saying he's a BITCH for, IN GENERAL, running CHICKEN SH*T races! He's an OLYMPIAN -- one of the BEST half-milers in the COUNTRY -- and it's DISGUSTING that we HANGS BACK and doesn't run to his FULL POTENTIAL. I'm not saying he should RUN SOMEBODY ELSE'S RACE, just that he's being a CHICKEN SH*T by hanging behind LESSER RUNNERS. He'll NEVER be remembered if he keeps doing THAT!

[eKriZZLe]

@dchartier1 well how about your stupid ass sits back and eats your own damn words. look at what Wheating is doing now. he just beat Nick Symmonds in his European in the 800 first American. just took first in the US at the Pre Classic in the mile...in one of the top fields ALL YEAR. now? he just ripped a 3:30 in the 1500m in Monaco. what's that? good enough for 4th all-time in America. 1 second off the record. and it's just the beginning. how does it feel to be the stupidest person on youtube?

[dchartier1]

@eKriZZLe

So he runs a LOUSY 3:30. He's just been LUCKY. He'll NEVER run faster than LAGAT, and ISN'T even WORTHY ENOUGH to carry El Guerrouj's JOCK STRAP. Just YOU wait and SEE!

[eKriZZLe]

@dchartier1 yeah because we all know the 4th best 1500 in American history is lousy. Lagat...whos record is only a second faster...is so far above Wheating. Andrew just graduated college...his running life is over.

get a clue you fucking tool.

[dchartier1]

@eKriZZLe

As if AMERICA is so GREAT in the 1500. He's still MORE than FOUR SECONDS behind the world record, an ETERNITY in RACING TERMS. His high-3:30 1500 today is the FASTEST he's EVER GOING TO RUN. Wheating will SOON BE FORGOTTEN.

Get a CLUE you FUCKING TOOL!

[eKriZZLe]

@dchartier1 just like what you said months ago. and months before that. don't you ever get a clue that you're just a completely retarded troll? Wheating has the most upside of any runner to come out of America recently. and he's just scratching the surface of his talent. a 7 second PR and he's never going any faster?? HAHA. i'm done with you. it's like trying to explain the theory of relativity to a toddler. or someone from Europe.

[dchartier1]

@eKriZZLe

You obviously know NOTHING about track. So he runs a 3:30. BIG DEAL! He's still more than FOUR SECONDS off the WR. In Kenya, he WOULDN'T EVEN MAKE the Olympic TEAM!

Trying to explain this to YOU is like TRYING to explain the THEORY OF RELATIVITY to a TODDLER, or SOMEONE FROM EUROPE!

[eKriZZLe]

@dchartier1 uh oh...Wheating got another personal best! just milliseconds behind the world indoor champion..another African. you know...i love making you look like the idiot you are...but Wheating does TOO good of a job of it himself.

everyone...just let him talk to himself. everytime he says something about Wheating...Andrew goes out and proves him wrong. lets see what this dumbass says this time!

[dchartier1]

@eKriZZLe

So he runs a PALTRY 1:44.6. BIG DEAL! He's still nearly TWO SECONDS behind Gray's American Record and nearly FOUR SECONDS behind the WR. Kaki WASN'T EVEN GOING ALL OUT in that race, and Wheating STILL couldn't beat him! If/when Wheating BREAKS 1:43, let's talk.  Until then, he's JUST ANOTHER LOUSY AMERICAN HALF-MILER ("JALAH").

Where's Johnny Gray and Earl Jones when you NEED them? If Wheating is one of the BEST WE'VE GOT, that's PRETTY SAD!

[ap1234512]

@dchartier1 and i also need to mention, look at kipketer and how he raced in his non pr races, he ran to win and does along the lines the same thing, he waits then goes with around 200m to go. in a race where time isnt your goal this is how you race, especially in trials and qualifying rounds... at least in the 800m. thats how the 800m is run when you want/need to win, you cant win an 800m and get a good time by front running, its too short and you need to be moving FAST. did you even do track?

[dchartier1]

@ap1234512

NOT true! I run in HS and I WIN just about ALL my dual meets running FROM THE FRONT straight from the GUN to the FINISH LINE. So YES, it CAN be DONE!

[ap1234512]

@dchartier1 ahh but here is where things get different. ur in HS where as the great bowerman said (a frontrunner advocate) you can get away with it in HS but in college and beyond ppl r smart and know how to use that frontrunning. and ur only winnin ur conference dual meets anyways, i too am a frontrunner but i know the pros and cons of frontrunning, i can guarentee you that you will not win half ur meets in college by frontrunning every race, and besides i never said frontrunning cant be done.

[ap1234512]

@dchartier1 and im a front runner as well and ive lost serious races because of it and i hate those kickers just as much as the next but at the end of the day, there the 1s with the medal and not me. ive only got 1 hs year left and i know that i need to stop doing all the work, let others do it a little bit like 1st 2 laps (im miler/800m) then go. front running is just too exhaustive, ull burn out faster if every race is hard start to finish, some races you need others to strat the race 4 you,

[zchrocks]

@dchartier1 hey want to suck me down

get back to me when your faster then wheating

[dchartier1]

@zchrocks I bet YOU'D like that! But I'll PASS. Would you like to SLOBBER on my A**HOLE?

I bet I'm faster than YOU, my friend. What are YOUR times?

And NONE of that CHANGES that Wheating is JUST PLAIN CHICKEN SH*T!

[EvanHatton21]

@dchartier1 WHY do you enjoy capitalizing RANDOM words? I really DON'T understand what the POINT your TRYING TO GET ACROSS by YELLING IN TYPING.

[xxxDAPROBLEMxxx]

@dchartier1 Hey too bad El G and the WR don't matter since El G and lagat aren't racing anymore (well lagats just olddddd so he won't be competitive no more) and no one today is as fast they were. So 3:26.00 don't matter cause the odds are no one's gonna run near that fast anytime soon. You suck

[dchartier1]

@xxxDAPROBLEMxxx

Big deal, Wheating is STILL way way OFF the WR. Wheating is STILL a CHICKEN SH*T racer who likes to STEAL THE RACE at the LAST MINUTE from the guy WHO DID ALL THE WORLD. That kind of racing is JUST PLAIN CHICKEN SH*T!

[dchartier1]

@eKriZZLe

Fourth best in AMERICAN HISTORY is probably FOUR THOUSANDTH best in AFRICA!

[eKriZZLe]

@dchartier1 oh...and if you must know...that race featured the 5 fastest times in the world this year. Wheating's included. and...another tidbit for you..Lagat was 7th in that race. why do you hate Wheating so much? he's a great runner and one of the USA's shining stars. he keeps this up...he could be standing on the podium in London. yet you still would bash him probably.

[dchartier1]

@eKriZZLe

If Wheating gets a medal in LONDON by doing CHICKEN SH*T RACING, then YES, I WILL bash him. There's NO EXCUSE for that.

But this MOOT, because Wheating AIN'T getting on the PODIUM in LONDON. He'll SOON BE FORGOTTEN!

[Meehan78]

Damn this kid has so much potential, look at him he's 6'5" he will be the first American in over 100 years to win the Olympic 5000m

[Hgreene1130]

he's more of an 800-mile guy.

[electrospecter99]

thanks for the upload

good humored commentary too
