1. so many outdated records on this list
2. Hope that he gets to this form again in Beijing........He's been struggling
3. I run a 2:10. This is just ridiculous
   
4. I wouldn't mind doing 200m at his pace...!
5. I love how he instantly recovers after running a world record, must be nice
6. i cant run i got a 3:07 im 12!
7. A GREAT runner
8. Try "soda loading".......it'll vaporise 9m
9. am crying while starting my 800m training at 40yrs...I must break at least even a half record
10. If the Boaz Kiplagat Lalang would have came first, he would have beat the record by one second.
11. 400 is NOT I repeat NOT easy yeah there is adrenaline but that just makes you say i feel the pain fuck it and you feel it after the race
12. stupid war comment! All athletes work hard and wake up early in the morning to acheive their dream! Stop the unecessary drama
13. You probably don't run very fast or push yourself hard enough if you feel fine running an 800m, yours arms and legs should feel wobbly as **** after
14. They are the "popular" ones because their race is so short, ask any true athlete and appreciator of Track and they will tell you the middle distance, 1500m specifically, is the blue ribbon event
15. Damn what state are you from, i didnt even place with a 1:56 as a senior, ran a 1:59 as a junior and didnt even make state,
16. Very nice run. Life goal of mine is To run a 1:50 and as a senior in high school i hope to run a 1:58 this year. Placed third in the state with a 2:01 last year as a junior. Sadly a sophmore ran a 1:51 and sat state record.
17. Needs a faster 2nd split. In London his 3rd split was almost an entire second faster than his second. With a pacemaker this can be stressed.
18. yo wat is that song? i like it.
19. you have no proof of this. im sure the fastest man alive has a lot of respect. i believe that people will say the 400m is the blue ribbon event
20. you're doing the same thing as me, comparing the two! so I applaud you on that remark. once again, it is your opinion that the "beethoven" of track is the 800m. I'm saying that millions of people enjoy the 100m more.
