Very nice.

Clever. +1 for you.

The sample base week was at least 60 miles, and probably 70 or more with warm-ups and cool-downs. That's decent mileage for an 800m guy. He should still go after a 1500m following world champs and see what he can do at the height of his fitness on 800m training. I still think that he can get pretty high on the American 1500m list.

yeah you probally know high school kids running sub 1:44 in the 800 too. and to the rest of the people who are asking about the "hunting/fishing", nick symmonds trains 24 hours a day and has no time for enjoying himself on a friday afternoon. trust me there has never been an elite athlete EVER to go hunting or fishing. it would just be terrible if nick symmonds destroyed YOUR pr AND shot a bigger deer than you, wouldn't it?

woah! The Most Dangerous Game! I just read that in school yesterday! Weird.

I don't understand why people keep pulling up year old threads and responding to them like they are in the middle of a heated conversation. This isn't the first one I've seen this week.

Yeah, that's so stupid. Why would anyone ever bring up an old thread like that?

It's absolutely hilarious to read these posts from more than a couple years ago. People have to stop putting their opinions out there as if they're the facts. It's fun to read though!

It is always hilarious to be unknowingly reading an old thread. A guy said Symmonds had "a little" success in the 800 and I thought he was just trolling.

I like that: "avoiding deceleration", very true.

I am pretty sure Symmonds has gone 1:42.95 in 2012.

Well, for starters, Nick is not really an 800m guy. Oh, he thinks he is, and he has had a little success with it, but in reality he is a 3:31-3:32 1500m guy if he has the guts to go after that event. The bottom line is that he just doesn't have the raw acceleration that is needed to be in the event that he currently is pursuing. Some of you will ask, "How can you say that, he's gone 1:43!" It's very easy if you look at the masters of his event. To be a real threat in that event, and have longevity, the bottom line is that you need :45-:46 second 400m speed. Why? Because that's what the 1:41-1:42 guys have, and that is where you want to go if you stay in that event. Well, that's my opinion, and I'm stick'in to it.

Yep, the Canadian kid McBride has sub 46 speed.

I wouldn't call him "nuts" on it. If you look at his 1:42.95 here, it may look "down the list" a little, but look at who is ahead of him. Rudisha ran about 20, Kipketer over a dozen and there are a handful of others who have run multiple top times. So you could say, all-time, he is pretty fast. Now look at the 1500m list below. his 3:31/2 is good, but way further down the list:
