He might not even win. Tony van Diepen ran 1:44.3 in Bydgoszcz last week.
The meeting is live on Norwegian TV (you'll need a VPN). The M 800 is due off at 8.10pm local time.

I'm going to go with an extremely optimistic time of 1:44.5. He shouldn't run this fast, but he's ridiculous.

His best is quicker than your two young guys already. In fact as a 19 year old he ran 0.01 fastener than the US high school record.
Does it really matter though? The only reason he is running 800m is to use this as a training tool. Jakob is a 1500m/5000m runner. 1500m / 5000m types don't need to run 800m under 1:46.

He will go out in 1:40.8, setting a new WR, then to the shock of the crowd keep running a full mile but fade to finish in 3:43.2, just missing the mile WR. Letsrun will still not be impressed.

According to the program PDF, pacer is set to go through 400 in 51s, so I'm expecting a fair bit faster than his 2020 showing. Optimistically, I'd say a high 1:43 or low 1:44
If he runs 1:43, the 1500m world record is gone within the month. Expect closer to 1:45.5.

Expect a full penis exposer from the Nike onesy, and a 1:44 low win.

If the pacer is only going out in 51s then Jakob is most definitely not going to run 1:43.

I'll agree with the various 1:45 high predictions, although I think he is capable of faster if he trained specifically for it.

A lot of top 1500m men run a sub-1:44 800m, though some never show their potential at 800m and some can't do it.
Hicham EL GUERROUJ 3:26 12:50.24 closed 1500 in 1:46 in Athens, coach said he ran 1:42 time trial. He averaged 1:49.6 in his world record 1500m and did 10x400 at 53-54 on 30 seconds rest supposedly, and 10x300s in 35-36.

The only person in history who could do that is Gerry Lindgren.

You do realize that El G was a walking pharmacy, right? No one in his or her right mind thinks that El G was clean, nor Lagat, Kiprop or Morceli, just going off the first 4 on your list.

Excited to see how Jakob does in this 800m. He's using it as a tune up for a very fast mile at the Oslo DL on the 16th, possibly even a WR attempt in front of his home crowd. Current PB is 1:46.44 from two years ago. He really needs to run under 1:45 today. If he posts 1:44 mid or low that would be excellent. 1:46 or slower would be disappointing.

+1. By the way, does anyone know a world class runner who wears soccer shorts?

If it is well paced he will be under 1,45. I dont understand the predictions over 1,46

Based on his form i would expect a time around 1,45 high
Nope. He will run slower than Flatt and Sumner. Our young guys are better than Europe's young guys. Go USA!
Let’s see how much better they are if we put them in a 1500m, or anything longer than that, with Ingebrigtsen
