J. Ingebrigtsen runs 800m tomorrow. What should we expect?

He will not win but towed to 1:46.66.

This. At best we'll see a sub 1:45, more likely we'll see something around 1:46-1:48.

He ran 1,46,44 in 2020 cant see why he would run any slower than that

Any info on the race? Where is it, heat sheets, etc?

Nope. He will run slower than Flatt and Sumner. Our young guys are better than Europe's young guys. Go USA!

1:42.69 if you know what I mean

Is two 52s really that hard?

He should do 1:44 easily in my mind

I mean think about it, I don't know his exact mile prs but they have to be in the 56s per lap range. Two 52s or a 52 and a 53 should be a piece of cake for this guy.

In a perfect race he should be able to run 1:45 high.

His pr for 1500m averages 55.55. So, he averages 1:51.10 for 800m in the 1500m. You would think that he could run 52s for 800m at least. Most previous top 1500m men have been able to run 1:44 or better. I would be shocked if he doesn't do it at some point, but as of last year he wasn't doing the hard 200/300/400 work necessary to run a good 800m. My prediction is 1:45.4.

Not any top 1500m runner is able to run sub 1:45.

Some are / were. But not the ones, that also run 5000m under 12:50.

1:46 would be a terrific result for Jakobing.

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.

'faster'

if he runs faster than 1:46 i'd think he finally put down the damn lactate meter

This. If he could run 1:44/12:48, he would most likely be in shape to run 3:26 or 3:25-high. El G's 5k pr is 12:50.

Due to the way he has trained and other physical limitations, I am certain he will not run sub-1:44.50

1:45.63

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
