Emmanuel Korir's negative split of 1:43.73 last week got me thinking, "What's the fastest negative split 800 ever run?"
Historians, please educate me.

Dunno, but this was the biggest positive split
I believe it was David Rudisha at the 2010 African Championships in Nairobi, 1:42.84. It went 51.59 - 51.25 as per the official results.
