Runner’s Tribe dove into the specifics of some of these 300m interval sessions routinely carried out by world leading athletes.
Two Olympic golds, two world championship golds, 800m world record holder. The G.O.A.T – of that there can be little doubt. Like many star 800m runners, Rudisha hails from the Brother Colm O’Connell stable. Home to thoroughbreds.
