Good show of speed ahead of SECs.
Good show of speed ahead of SECs.
Has there ever (in history) been an 800M athlete this young with honest to goodness sub 50 flat 400 speed? What is fascinating about watching her run is it doesn't even look like she is running hard, those long legs stride a little further and she's suddenly in another gear when compared to the rest of the field
Bam. 💥
Put that in your pipe and smoke it.
Mu is the real deal.
.867, LMAO
How were the conditions?

Exactly. Its impossible to record split times dow to the 1/1000 of a second. .
I can't wait for her to take on SMU (not the school...)

Hey hey dont shoot the messenger here just reporting whats on the site
And conditions were fairly good, Laird ran 19.82 windy, Hobbs and Clark sub 11, Noah Williams 44.30.

It is good but it isn't faster than her best 400 out of the blocks - 50.5. However, it is possible she could run below 50 at some stage - which is very fast for an 800 runner. But endurance still remains the key for the longer event.
She can likely run 49.xx now and 48 high in a few years.Endurance and speed are both important in the 800m
I don't get why you keep going on about endurance. What makes her a unicorn is the 50 400m and the 4:16 1500m, in her only race at this distance in 2 years, and of course with goofy splits in a duel meet. Moreover, unlike most 400/800 types, she embraces endurance training and competition.
49.867 = 49.87
her speed, along with her 1500 endurance, shows good potential for 1:55 or better I would think. But of course the relay split is not showing us anything new in her toolbox.

Eagerly awaiting her 400m opener. I think she has CR performance in her
49.65 or there about
Mu will be the clean record holder by 2022.

Not exactly true. The splits were recorded by a FAT timing system. Probably finish lynx.
Finish lynx records times to better than the thousandths of a second (think it is ten-thousandth). Track and field rules allow for the use of times to the thousandth of a second to break ties. Times are rounded up to the next thousandth in these situations. The official times are all rounded up to the next hundredth. Times are normally stored in the results database to the thousandth of a second so that the meet management software will automatically break ties that occur when the official times are tied to the hundredth of a second. These stored times are what you see listed in the splits. Because the setting is to store the times internally to the thousandth, you see the split times listed to the thousandth. They should really have the meet management software round the splits up to the hundredth instead of just displaying the internal stored time to the thousandth.
But anyway, the times can be recorded to the thousandth of a second very easily. But official times recorded by FAT systems should be rounded up to the next hundredth when reported.
Of course hand times should always be rounded up to the next tenth when reported.
I am curious how they are getting FAT splits for all of the first legs of the relay though. Normally you can only get a FAT split for the team in lane 1. Unless they used a one turn stagger instead of a 3 turn stagger?? I have never seen a 2 turn stagger 4x400 but I suppose that is also possible.

In the women's 800 endurance is crucial. There are quite a few 49 sec 400m runners; none of them are successful over the longer distance. Jarmila, with her 47x, was a stand out (a bit like Juantorena in the men's event). Mu's 1500 time means squat. She won't show md endurance until she closes on 4-flat, like Semenya could.

No, she won't. That record is set in stone - except to a massively doped athlete.

She won't ever run 48-high unless she can run 22-low in the 200. She can't.

She only needs 22.3, and she can likely manage a 22.7 right now.
It's a small possibility that mu is closer to an 400m runner than 800m, she one of the best juniors yet she doesn't train specifically for the 400m. Maybe her training now gets her close to her potential, but there is a chance she better at the 400m
