Both Wayde Van Niekerk and Shaunae Miller-Uibo attempted the 400m/200m double, with different levels of success. Wayde took two medals and Shauane took one medal. So, in part 4 of the Mo & Larry show, we discuss the difficulty of the 400 meter and 200 meter double.

The problem is, quite frankly, that fine athletes make all things look easy! But, the attempt of a 400 meter and 200 meter double is very, very difficult. Michael Johnson did it in 1995 and 1996, and it is a very difficult double.
Enjoy our conversation. Working with Maurice Greene is always fun and I always learn about the sport when we discuss our topics.
Watch for more to come.
