Murphy shows up to Nationals in 3:36 1500m shape, far superior to the other 800m runners, cruises through the rounds, stays off the first lap pace in the final, moves into position in the back straight, uses his 1500m speed endurance to decelerate less than the rest of the field over the last 200m, and cruises to a nice 1:44 win. Straight from the Nick Symmonds play book!
Unfortunately, Nick was more concerned with beer miles, American Ninja, Building his brand and his Twitter account that he failed to get himself into decent 1500m shape.
