It's the one distance where you can kind of be like...

I'm going to show you how fast I actually am.

Like no one's doing anything shorter than a 5K now.

Like no one's going to like go and run an 800 meters on the track because like a 210, 800 is completely irrelevant to most people.

But to everybody, even if you don't run, for example, your wife, you could say my PB to her and she'd be like, that was quite quick.

But without having any knowledge of the sport at all,

Yeah.

I do think it is just a bit of an ego thing to be like.

She can tell that one number's bigger than the other.

She doesn't understand the difference between a 17 and a 1730.

Yeah, it's like... The difference between the training or the athlete or the pace or any of that.

It's like when some of my mates are trying to break 16.

So fast.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

I think when I ran my 1656, whatever it was, I was in shape, like a 245, like sub 245 shape.

So I think that does kind of correlate.

That's probably why.

Yeah, that was flat out for me, though.

But I ran 250 in Chicago, like, six weeks prior.

And then I just ran it, like, in the middle of a run on a random Thursday at, like, two o'clock in Bassey Park.
