800MM is a really short fucking race.

thatguy2016 · Jun 8, 2017

Heppenstall is a stud and has a legit shot at the all-time WF record in the 800m of 1:46.74, depending on the tactics of the race

Ellie Abrahamson competes tonight in the Steeplechase; she has already destroyed the WF record in the event (by 30+ seconds) and hopefully will get under 10:00 tonight

yes I dont' know much about track and field but I suppose it's considered a short race with only the 400 200 and 100 shorter and probably many other races much longer ...

Ellie Abrahamson qualifies for the final in the Steeple with a 10:00.02

Yep.....only 2 laps.

I think I could beat biff in a 800mm race, but it would be close.

You're probably right, but you've been training. Give me a few weeks and it would be even closer.

I'll even wear boat shoes to level the playing field.

This race used to be known as the 36 Inch. Like a lot of other races, the rounded off metric version ends up being a little shorter.

It's considered a "middle distance."

Also, to be clear, I get the joke.
