What is toughest distance to run in track?

After doing some research, it seems the 800m run is often considered the toughest distance to run on track. It's a grueling race that demands both speed and endurance, a delicate balance difficult to achieve. It's not long enough for runners to pace themselves like in a marathon, yet it's not short enough to be a pure sprint. This unique requirement of speed and stamina makes the 800m a real test of a runner's mettle. It's a challenging race, but that's what makes it interesting, right?
