I genuinely enjoy that none of us in 2023 have yet to agree what the 800 is. Even physiologists.
Stand Nick Symmonds next to David Rudisha and tell what the 800 requires. Its guys running 120 miles per week, its guys running 50 miles per week,...... Its all "strength and speed! But look at A-MU...jeesh.
800 chooses you! Not the other way around.
