What can Symmonds run for 1500/mile? 8/9/2012 11:02PM Reply | Return to Index | Report Post
Based on his 2012 PRs of 47.45 and 1:42.95?
What if?

It's probably a little premature to infer that Symmonds must move up. He might just have one more Olympics in him as an 800 runner. He said himself he previously didn't think he could run faster than 1:43.5ish. Now he's talking about him and/or Solomon breaking Johnny Gray's AR in the coming years.

And I do believe one of them will do it.
Always the same

I'd say he could run a final, but come in 5th-8th.

No. What can someone with PRs of 47.45 and 1:42.95 run for 1500/mile?

3:29? 3:30?

3:47? 3:48?

You can't just take his 800 pr and plug it into a calculator and find out what he can run in a 1500/mile.

After watching him race over the years, it is clear to me that the 800 is by far his best event. He might be good for 3:52 in the mile, but what would be the point of him focusing on it?
mee tooo!

he must have quite some endurance since he ran 47.xx
I give him 3:30 after two years.

3:36.04 this year.

You are supposed to speculate on distances that an athlete has not seriously run.
