Coming around to the argument that Kerr's record might be more impressive than Sawe's.
However, Rudisha's 800m is still king. He led from the front with no wavelights or pacers and his record still stands.

It’s 2026.
I cannot believe I’m still pinning a race number onto my shirt with safety pins.
Why hasn’t someone disrupted this space yet? Where’s the innovation?
Please.

Mary Decker was 15 when she won the 1974 US Indoor Championships in the 880y.

Incorrect positioning of the feet isn't what does runners in.
Usually it's that they cycle their legs in the wrong order. Many go right foot, left foot, repeat.
You're supposed to go left foot, right foot, repeat.
This is why I avoid running like the plague personally
High odds you position your feet wrong and then running on asphalt makes it worse because it doesn't bounce like running on sand or grass would
I can't count how many people I know who have knee injuries from running, it's not worth it for me
I do cardio on a Concept2 bicycle in my gym and have never had any injury in my life

Well, just got fired for posting about politics.
My boss saw my tweets calling Noah Lyles the fastest man alive and believes the proper answer is Bolt since he holds the world record.
He called me biased towards Americans and told me to clean out my desk.

Cooper Lutkenhaus made the world team to get out of cross country. Ultimate big brain 800m runner move

Dave Wottle didn't have a great kick, he just ran even splits while everyone else was slowing down

Confident in my ability to properly run, I take to the track. I smile at my opponent.
Faith Kipyegon does not return the gesture. She’d be prettier if she did. She takes the first lap in 61 seconds. I have a massive heart attack, which kills me instantly.

just got stung by a wasp for the first time in my life and barely had a panic attack, where my award

This is exactly how I felt before winning NCAAs 2010.
The best can perform despite how they feel--emotionally or physically
“All I want is to get this over with.”
Those aren’t the words of a weekend warrior.
They came from Olympic champion Herb Elliott right before winning gold and setting a world record.
What does that tell us?
You don’t have to feel great to perform well.
And sometimes, your best days start with dread.
