Peter Kosgei 800-meter run (2008 NYSCTC championships)

[tobyhawk828]

hated the feeling before you had to run the 800..

[tjdohner]

dude in 2nd made his move way too early with 400m to go. he might have caught the guy if he waited to make a move around the 250m-300m mark.

[jasonziolkowski]

@tjdohner if he made his move 250-300 to go there would of been an even bigger gap between them and it would make it just that much harder to catch up. so you dont know what your talking about

[tjdohner]

@jasonziolkowski the guy in second ran the leaders race and took off when the leader did making that much harder to make up ground since hes running a longer race. the 2nd place finish ran roughly a :52 first 1/4 and a :59/60 second 1/4. if he waited to take off he would have shaved off about 2 maybe 3 more seconds off his time closing the gap seeing that he finished about 3 seconds after the leader. he paniced.

I am nowhere near as good as most guys in Hampshire, and I do a 2:10.

Please can we stop attempting to glorify ourselves! If you want to be good, get off YouTube and train! Trust me, it will work, Im breaking 2 mins next season, cos I want that title.
