Quincy Wilson Drops  

whats the national record for 15-16

@@bacon_demand4093 1:46.45

@@wisforwinner 1:46.45 is the hs national record. Aside from the shotput and Hobbs's 1500m, its widely considered the best standing hs national record hence why its stood since 1996 even in the supershoe era. However, I think if Wilson wanted to, he could break it. He's probably better suited for the 400 however.

@@b.vancevancerefrigeration4761 I think he's well suited for the 400 as well. Yet, while they are moving him up in strength, he might as well put the hs 800m record out there as a challenge. I think you know that training at a new distance to improve your meat n drink event (400m), can be a drag without an appropriate challenge. I was thinking if he wants to go to trails this summer or be in the relay pool for Paris 24, he will have to be hitting the low 40's in the 400 or 52/53 split for 800. Point is the hs 800 nr target will do wonders for his open 400 potential. Btw, you can see he's a bit tight in the 800, he needs so much practice at setting up that distance. He'll get it down.

You think he'll have the stamina by then?

What are you saying about pain?

I was a mile (1600)/two-miler (3200) in high school, school records in both. I also anchored our school record / county record 4x800m relay. When we won the county meet it came down to two team race, stride for stride to the last step: 54 seconds and 65 seconds for a 1:59 split. Lol.

@@degreeO that first 400 was your PR? 😮

Imagine how easy a 54 would feel for him

tbh the 800 isn’t that bad compared to the 400 to me in the 800 you can pace urself better the 400 is basically a full out sprint

@@qupq i respectfully completely disagree. After a hard 800, my throat hurts for an hour. Also 800 m runners have much shorter careers than 400 m runners.

@@gtrdoc911 that post 800 coughing is no joke 😂 most definitely harder than the 400 if you run it right

Pretty sure he has 2 events now lol.

@@dajosco115 well his 400m time places him about top 3 in the world right now. His 800m time about top 3000. So not really.

He will need 48-49 if he wants world record

No he’s just a stronger generation

No he’s a stronger generation

Talk about it, man! I’m from PA as well. Won’t 100m states two years in a row. Senior year, ran 10.52, which if anyone knows, in PA with our weather, being crappy well into late April, is not bad at all. I want to Golden West invitationals, the premier High School even back in those days. I came in 5th running 10.41. The winner ran a 10.28. That was 1989. Now days, these high schoolers are basically practicing in the 10.5 range. There are so many kids running 10.1’s, where as in my day, you may find maybe 3-4 nationally running that. It’s amazing and exciting. Each generation gets stronger

400 yes 800 no

Do you know Rudisha had a 45 second pb

Depends is 43.5/1.45 better?

Don't take shots at Obea!

difference is quincy wilson runs a 45.19 400. he hasn’t ran an 800 before this

@@jackdunseth Obea had the 16 year old 400m HS record which was only broken last year by jonathan simms and it was in the 45.1 range as well

@@cbands7954 didn’t know that, thanks

THEY DONT' DO THAT IN SPRINTING. THEIR FORM IS THEIR FORM

He’s not going to do the mile he looks completely gassed out after 800m

@@JimmyKim-fb1jiwell it was an all out 800 who wouldn’t be gassed. You go all out your gonna be gassed. He’d obv have to pace himself way better so I’d say a 4:20-4:45 for him in a mile but with the pace he had if he were to somehow keep that pace it’d be a world record

@@jonathanayala2420 4:45 mile isn’t good enough for him, he already qualified for 400m Olympic trials so why would he do the mile.

@@JimmyKim-fb1ji Just saying he’d have to pace himself better for a mile if he were to run it. That was just hypothetical too not saying his mile is 4:45 just a range

He qualified for 400m Olympic trials, he ran like a sub 45.2 which is insane idk why he is running the 800m tho

It’s great for him - strength/endurance training. If this guy stays healthy I think he should just go pro, guys running top collegiate times as a HS sophomore.

Or do 1 year in college if he so chooses.

Ya no he wasn’t

He def wasn’t, just the camera makes it look that way
