The 800 metres, or 800 meters (US spelling), is a common track running event. It is the shortest common middle-distance running event. The 800 metres is run over two laps of the track (400 metre track) and has been an Olympic event since the first games in 1896. During indoor track season the event is usually run on a 200-metre track, therefore requiring four laps.
The event was derived from the imperial measurement of a half a mile, a traditional English racing distance. Imperial racing distances were common in the United States. American high schools (in the name of the NFHS) were the last to convert to metric distances in 1980, following the NCAA's conversion in 1976. Countries associated to the English system converted to metric distances after the 1966 Commonwealth Games. 800 m is 4.67 m less than half a mile.
The event combines aerobic endurance with anaerobic conditioning and sprint speed. Both the aerobic and anaerobic systems are being taxed to a high extent, thus the 800 metre athlete is required to combine training between both systems.
Olympic and World Record holder David Rudisha retained his olympic 800 metres title to win Kenya’s second gold medal in Rio,Brazil. Following the win, Kenya now lies 2nd on the athletics medal standings with a total of 5, two gold and three silver.

Kuuban Alberto Juantorena voitti 800 metriä ME-tuloksella 1.43,50 Montrealin olympialaisissa 25. heinäkuuta 1976. Hopean vei rajussa kisassa Belgian Ivo van Damme (1.43,86) ja pronssin USA:n Rick Wohlhuter (1.44,12). Britannian nuori Steve Ovett kuittasi viidennen tilansa korkojen kera ottamalla kultaa Moskovan kisoissa neljä vuotta myöhemmin. Kenian Mike Boit joutui jäämään pois Afrikan maiden boikotin vuoksi. Kuuban hevonen johti kisaa alusta loppuun lukuun ottamatta viidettä satasen pätkää, jolloin Intian yllätysnimi Sriram Singh porhalsi kärkeen tukka putkella. Juantorena jatkoi riehumistaan muutama päivä myöhemmin viemällä myös 400 metrin kullan sokerisaarelle. Yleisurheilukilpailuja selostivat Suomeen Montrealin olympiastadionilla Raimo Häyrinen ja Voitto Raatikainen (1930-2012)...
