Which one is better to be????
Seb Coe or El Guerrouj?
At the college level, I would say the 800/1500 runner. As a 5k guy, you typically aren't on relay teams, which in my opinion is the fun part of running track. After college, moving up is a wise choice because your opportunities to run 4x800s, 4x400s and DMRs are pretty limited, where as there are a plethora of 5k road races.
1500m/5k no doubt!! The 1500/5k-runner is better at 1500m.
And you can run XC and road races with more success.
1500/800 you will get more speed, but in my opinion I think you lack a lot of strength needed for the 1500. the 1500/5k is better in my opinion, but hey lukezeck pulls the 1500/800 off.
Webb, Brannen, Willis for the most part.
I thought Webb would be more of a 1500/5k guy considering his 5k pr(13:30). David Krum is an 800 1500 and has the same pr as Webb in the 1500 (3:32)
