Everyone for years has speculated how fast Wariner (or any 400 guy) could run for 800. The boards have been populated with this talk for a LONG time - http://goo.gl/LFBHlj . Some idiot even said he could run 141/2.Well Chris Chavez caught up with Wariner and it looks like we'll soon find out: http://www.sportingnews.com/sport/story/2015-01-14/jeremy-wariner-2015-season-800-meters-olympic-gold-medal-track-and-fieldFor the record, Wariner is hoping for something reasonable:http://www.sportingnews.com/sport/story/2015-01-14/jeremy-wariner-2015-season-800-meters-olympic-gold-medal-track-and-field

“I have no idea,” Wariner said. “It could be great if I could open up under 1:50 and run around 1:47 or 1:48 as my first one ever. Anything faster than that I’d be happy with. Anything slower than that, I know I’d need more strength work.”
How fast do you think he'll go?
