Thanks
I will kill you.
Now, anyone really have a link?
According to T&FN, he came through 1200 in 2:46.34. Sorry I can't give you more than that.
Wow. So up to 1200m he was averaging 55.4x per quarter. And then runs the final 300 under 40. When you think about it that way it makes me wanna cry.
thanks man, much appreciated. Thats what I was really looking for - his 1200 split ( I can figure out the last 300m from there). Thanks again.
His official splits were:
54.3, 1:50.7, 2:18.8 (1000), 2:32.5 (1100); the last 400 was 53.5. That, I believe, is FAST.
Interesting that in four subsequent races, El Guerrouj had faster splits at 1200m than in his world record race, but couldn't finish as fast in any of them.
