What song is that playing in the background?

[DeepCore214]

O fortuna by carl orff, he made mad intense music.

[norkysa111]

thank you. I've been trying forever to find the name.

[DeepCore214]

If u like that, listen to "Ecstasy of Gold" by Ennio Morricone

whats the name of the song playing when there racing i have to run to this haha

[zippo7224]

i like to go into a really fast sprint at the start for like half the track then be really out of breath and be like wow, i got a long way to go and then run slowly for a lap 1/2 until i recover then i go at a kind of fast pace then when i get to that last 100 metres i just sprint and win the race, i have never raced anyone but i know i beat everyone because i always do it in world record time and today i ran the mile at 1minute20seconds

[zippo7224]

@DeepCore214 would they allow a 16 year old to run in this because i can run a mile in 1minute20seconds and i really wanna show everyone who thinks they're so good at running that they're really not and i wanna make them feel slow and embarass them like usain bolt did to the sprinters

[mamowolde]

the track is 140m

Dem boys were flying. I would have preferred John Philip Sousa music but it was OK.

[Enduran999]

breaking the 5 minute mile is really good, breaking 4 minute...wow

[blaze222666]

they go so fast but look at lagat it looks so effortless

[blaze222666]

most tracks are 200m meters, but they vary. i have run on 150 and 160 meter tracks.

[ap1234512]

how big is that track? i thot indoor tracks were like 200ms? at least the one i use is

[Schlunky]

I don't know if I'm going to beat it or not. I'd just like to by the end of senior year.
