i recently ran a 800m, i really thought i would have gotten under 2 mins for for but i didn't. I ran 25 at the 200m , 56 at the 400m and then 1:26 at 600m.
its really a encouraging mark though considering this is my first 800 in two years.
I really need some advice on what to do the next time i go out and run or what i should concentrate on in training.
Concentrate on running even. You went out at wr pace...Run on pure hate but make sure it is spaced out, don't use it all up in the first 200m. Go 59.9/60 next time.

Can you elaborate on what pure hate is?
wrong, should have gone 57-8 in first 400; no big deal, because you will likely break 2 very soon, seeing that you haven't run it in couple of years.

ok i have a next 800 in two weeks
Were you hoping to make the world standard with that 200m?
Seriously you need to pace yourself. 27 and 28 would have been easier than 25 and 31 and you would still be faster at the bell.
56/57 should be your goal if you want a sub 2.
