That's a sad sad story. Title: Re: Bolt v Farah at 600m Post by: The Baron on July 30, 2013, 11:52:49 AM Farah comfortably

Title: Re: Bolt v Farah at 600m Post by: Gazza on July 30, 2013, 02:20:08 PM Doesn't aerobic respiration take over at about 200m, so Bolt could last it out over 400m, but wouldn't have a shot at 600m?

John Ridgeon reckons it would be close over 550m, but after that it would be Farah. Title: Re: Bolt v Farah at 600m Post by: MintTrav on July 30, 2013, 02:48:20 PM 600m is an unfair distance to suggest - Bolt fades when he does 400m.
Rudisha for me.

Can Rdigeon get any more camp? Title: Re: Bolt v Farah at 600m Post by: kinboshi on July 30, 2013, 02:53:48 PM 600m is an unfair distance to suggest - Bolt fades when he does 400m. Rudisha for me. Rudisha would beat both of them by some distance over 600m. Rudisha v Farah at 1200m would be interesting (still go with Rudisha).

Can Rdigeon get any more camp? Haha, possibly not as camp as the current 110m hurdler Andy Turner. Title: Re: Bolt v Farah at 600m Post by: MintTrav on July 30, 2013, 04:23:52 PM Pretty sure Rudisha would have Bolt's number over 400m too.
Title: Re: Bolt v Farah at 600m Post by: kinboshi on July 30, 2013, 04:27:29 PM Pretty sure Rudisha would have Bolt's number over 400m too. There's a thread on that (as this race was mooted before the Farah v Bolt one). http://blondepoker.com/forum/index.php?topic=61063.0 At the moment Rudisha has a better PB, but Bolt has spoken about running the 400m seriously at some point, and to do so he'd have to take seconds off his PB - which would take it well beyond Rudisha's 400m best. If Bolt trains for the 400m, he comfortably beats Rudisha (imo).

This 500m is close. 550 too tough to call. |
