The 400m beats the 800m any day of the week. The 800m is too long to sprint and should be abolished.
You.
Take.
That.
Back.
The 400m is the worst distance because it's the longest, that can be done anaerobic.
This results in the maximum lactic acid and pain for such a short event. It's the uncanny valley between proper sprint and endurance.
