Best Female 800 Metre Runners

Deserves top ten for longevity and number of medals despite not winning a major championship

I remember watching her run and I also remember that I always hoped that she would win.

By far the best ever. Some say Mutola but she is a pathetic 0-4 vs Quirot in major championships which would be 0-5. In my mind she is a 2 time Olympic Gold and 1 time silver medalist. She wins in 88 with no boycott, silver in 92 behind Van Langen without doped up Soviet, and gold in 96 without again a doped up Soviet.

Would put her #1 if she werent half a man. If she keeps dominating will have to put her #1 though despite being half man.

Was unbeatable at brief peak, too bad she fizzled out surprisingly fast.

She still holds the world record from 1983, which is the longest living individual record in athletics.
