    From what I have heard the Memorial van Dame, Monaco Diamond league and Zürich Weltklasse are some of the greatest tracks
    Great hearing your opinion on these tracks

    As a Millrose 3x champion running in the garden yet training home track in the armory millrose is something else. Fact that in 97 my high school team was only team ever to compete in the HS 4X800 with 3 sophomores on the team. No team ever qualified with 2 sophomores and we we 3 + 1 junior. Won in 98 when we came back second year and to this day one of my all time best memories was winning in 98. Great list here and as a former half miler always rooted for you and still do

    Hey Clayton, two words: Monaco FOREVER
    Weltklasse would be my runner-up.
    I like the inflection of humor and candid moments here!
    P.S. I hear there are lower level swimming pools next to that most beautiful Monaco track ;-)

    Zurich is my favorite, the athletes come to the cheap seats around the curve after the finish, the fans are really into it and my kid got an autograph there from Usain Bolt back in the day

    Being from Nice, I was anticipating the mention of Monaco. So many records are broken in Monaco and yes Monaco is beautiful. There is also a meet in Nice called the Nikaia (old Roman name for Nice) where I went as a kid and I saw Sergey Bubka and Said Aouita break word records.

    • @ClaytonMurphy800
      @ClaytonMurphy800  2 роки тому +1

      Nikaia Grand Prix would be such a great meeting to compete at! so much history as you mentioned. Is it still being organized? I can't seem to find any newer information on it.

      grew up in the sticks and barely had a HS team let alone one to get to Penn. Akron also wasn't exactly a powerhouse D1 program either 😬

    Congrats on running achievements and taking on Nick Symmonds in the 800M UA-camr space. What motivated (motivates) you to push yourself to extraordinary limits? How did you find balance between speed vs. injury and regular life vs. Olympian life?

    Great debut for your Top 🎱 dude! I ❤️🤍💚 that you have the Hungarian meet on your list!!!! As a former D-1 distance guy, I agree Eugene must be anyone's list! However I believe Hayward was once historic, traded passion for glory.

    • @ClaytonMurphy800
      @ClaytonMurphy800  2 роки тому

      Hoping to add Budapest23 to the list this year too 😏
      Loved historic Hayward but can't count out new hayward either. Change is hard but it lays the foundation for great future growth of the sport in eugene

    Can you rank your top 10 USA 800m runners all-time? Also, do you wish you would have had more opportunities to race nick symmonds? I think his style would have made for some fun rivalry. Ive watched that 2015 race between you and him many times.

    Very nice video! Did you earn your money from sponsorships? Race wins? Or did you learn a job? And what's your opinion to doping, did you ran against people who did it?

    • @ClaytonMurphy800
      @ClaytonMurphy800  2 роки тому +2

      I’m a Nike sponsored athlete so my full time job is training and racing for them, Race and championship bonuses are always nice to earn though!
      I am a big advocate of Clean Sport and anti doping control and always do my part to keep track clean. Unfortunately have raced against dopers before-Bans work but we still need stricter control.
