Wow great range, 1:47 is no joke, did you do any real specific 800m training or just ran that on the side? I am an 1:55 8 guy and these times just blow my mind

I like 6x500 off 1:30
Last 100m is tough in the last few reps but it's better than 10x400
I went from 3.48 to 3.45 in a season. Looking back I was probably doing 65Mpw average, a lot of steady low 6 min miling running and intense 1500/3k track sessions.
