The Miles' Lists: 800 Meters

Kicking off this week's installments of the Miles' Lists -- the comprehensive 2009 and all-time Minnesota boys high school track and field performance lists -- is the 800 meters.

The 2009 800m list is topped by Minnesota's fastest prep all-time in the event, Zach Mellon of Buffalo. Mellon clocked 1:49.80 in 2009, after setting the state all-time mark of 1:48.64 in 2008.

In addition, the 2009 MSHSL Class Champion Harun Abda ranks #2 on the 2009 list with 1:51.69, but his 1:50.74 from 2008 ranks him #5 all-time in Minnesota.

Mellon and Abda could tangle again this weekend at the Big Ten Indoor Championships. Mellon competes for Wisconsin nowadays, while Abda wears the maroon and gold of the Gophers.
