Twice around the track is like a 50 miler run.

It is actually less than a half mile. Are you off by a factor of 100 in everything that you do?
It's more like the sprinting of ultrarunning. Think about it, twice around the track is like the 100 meter dash.
How long is your track?!
They could not be less analogous. Thank you for asking though. Now we all know explicitly.
Maybe if you run in the outer lanes.
It's pretty damn long for a sprint though, ain't nothing like the 2min. of hell. The 800m is considered a mid-distance event, due to the aerobic conditioning required to run a time relatively close to your 400m sprint speed, a highly anaerobic event. The 800m is also highly anaerobic in nature, but is not a sprint because it's not reliant on the ATP/Creatine-Phosphate system like the true sprints are; look at the running stride of a world class 800m runner and you'll notice it's nothing like the sprinter's stride.
Haters vs hippies.

Thank you for enlightening us. I doubt anyone here knew this.
Ultras are run on pure douche, compression everything, and trucker hats
But no hate mentioned anywhere
