800m is the best race and true 800m runners are the best!! I'm not talking about the guys who run 4 30 in the 16 but can't break 2 min or barely do so. You are NOT an 800 runner. Those of us who run sub 50 400 and sub 155 800m are the best. So much versatility and speed and endurance combined.
Also to all the people on here who didn't even run in high school or on scholarship in college, your are the definition of hobby joggers.
What motivates people to post stuff like this?
Woohoo! True 800m runners checking in. Let's go. What is other true 800m runners favortex workout? I like doing 15th , especially with the distance runners who think the have speed. So funny to leave em in the dust
The OP is kind of a bro, but what he says is actually true. True 800 guys are the most impressive athletes Ive seen in running.
1:55 ?
The 800 rewards mediocrity. It's no different than ultra-running.
Too slow for the 400? No problem; I have an event for you: run your mediocre 400 twice in a row.
1:55? Sub 50? tons of top milers and even 10k guys have that kind of ability... they aren't 800m runners.
If you can run 50 you should be going a lot faster than 1:55, if you are a true 800 runner. You are a sprinter who dabbles in 800.
2/10
haha at all these dumb ahh boys that not true 800m runners talking.

bruh you dumb? this is on the high school forum this is for high school runners. and no way a skinny little b*tch 10k runner can run sub 50 in the open 400. And if we have mediocre speed then 1600 , 3200, 5k, 10k got no speed (which is true)
yall just mad you not a true 800m runner and dont know the bond that we have with other true 800m runners!

Too slow for track? No problem; I have an event for you: run your mediocre-self in a road race with overweight people who consider it an accomplishment just to finish a 5k.
