s/c because of the barriers.
Any shorter event mentioned is a joke as the pain even if greater is over quicker
If run it the correct way, slightly positive splitting or just barely evenly splitting it, the 800 or mile are the hardest without question. 3k steeple is up there as well. No way is it the 5k or 10k or anything farther. Different kind of pain and the shorter distances definitely hurt more, even if it is for a shorter period of time. Last lap of the mile hurts far worse than the last lap of a 10k.
