Rheinhardt Harrison, the distance star at Nease High School, rolled to a personal best time of 1:51.48 in the 800 meter run at the Bolles Bulldog Classic on Friday evening in Jacksonville. The performance is the second-fastest time this outdoor season in Florida behind only Samuel Austin at 1:51.24.
Harrison had little competition to press him to the time winning by a margin of 4 seconds and only one other runner in the field breaking 2 minutes in Buchholz senior Nathan Bailes at 1:55.54 for second place.
As his time continue to improve in the 800, Harrison should see his chances of breaking 4 minutes in the mile improve after running 4:01.34 as a sophomore last outdoor season.

🏃♂️👏👏👏👏👏
Beautiful run to watch. Right from the start he was his own compeition which is toughest of all when you are alone as pointed out by other posts.
Dude killed it from the start..
I’ve seen track meets take place in the cold. Notice everyone in hoodies,coats and hats? Yet, there is a swim meet going on simultaneously. Outdoors? or does this high school have a glass enclosed swim facility? Holy crap!?
Dudes going to kill it in college
Imagine running 1:55 at a high school meet and still getting second
That young guy was in an 85% sprint the whole distance! He never let his heels down out of that cruising sprint.
Amazing
Stunning. Half mile at that pace, all by himself!
Smooth! This kid looks like he has the 400 – 1600 covered!
Runs a 54 followed by a 57. Most high school runners are lucky to break 60 on their second lap. Impressive.
Outstanding performance only matched by the riveting commentary.
Thanks for the video, though I didn’t see the young guy much
All alone is the most impressive part of this race. Stud!!!
This video was Extremely Satisfying to watch.
That was Blazing fast with nice form
"He's the one trying to break 4 min in the mile" other lady "right now?"…….
Nice run. Crazy he was that far ahead at 400 with a 54 second split
What is this commentary lol
Prob the one of the worst commentators I’ve ever heard
Bro I know someone who 17 does 1 49 and someone who 15 or 16 that does 1 53
In New Zealand there is a boy in high-school running 1:49
Who here after his sub 4 attempt he ran 4:05 but very windy
I ran on that track several times in high school, lots of memories…
he ate his wheaties that day
A beautiful runner. I wish!!
He is a great runner…with a lot of potential….Maybe even Olympic caliber….but I just hope he doesn't get burnt out by the time he is 21.
Tell the lady to get off the damn film while the great run is being taped…jeeze us!!
I would’ve gotten last with a 2:14 but every meet I’d do the 800 after the mile so that really affects my 800 time
Big props to Aiden Smith for taking out this race hard and keeping it honest the whole way. Very excited for the future of American distance running.
There are kids under 14 years old that run 1:51
He’s good but he’s not Alan Webb good.
Had a guy like this on my team in high school. He would train the same as everyone during practice, nothing spectacular. And then race day he would blow us all away. It was crazy, cause in cross country 5 k races his first few times he finished last place. Then all of a sudden he was winning every race by huge leads. Im convinced it was all mindset now that I look back on it.
He is just a junior people….outstanding stride and oxygen intake.Cant wait to see him next year!
The 'Karen' is strong in this video.
Dime a dozen!
His form is absolutely perfect. He’s going to be lethal in college.
I applaud the commentator for knowing and stating the meet record prior to and during the race. He is more prepared than NBC commentators. But I can't help 😔 how bland of a level of commentating this was for such a great time. Sounded like he was commotase. He possibly has a future at NBC.
