Running a 1600 in the ~4:50-5:10 range with a big heavy weightlifter-type physique as most of these guys did is pretty impressive. A lot of comments hating saying they're on PEDs or they're not fast or what ever but as an actual mid distance track runner I find this pretty impressive hahah

1600

“Fittest” is such an ambiguous term. We talking highest VO2 Max? Cyclists and cross country skiers. Highest lactic threshold? 400M hurdlers have to be up there. All around athleticism? Decathletes and heptathletes. Best at CrossFit? Crossfitters.

CrossFit is moronic. The fact they have the nerve to call winner “fittest person on earth”… tells exactly how insecure they are about how ridiculous CrossFit is.

CrossFitters are probably fitter than any other athletes besides elite tactical athletes like US special forces.

The funniest thing about this to me is that, even with a track, they can’t get the distance right. This is a 1600, not a mile.

If you're an athlete you're suppose to do better for one mile .. its one mile to give it your all. That's easy peasy.. if it were 3 miles or 2 they would definitely struggle with that weight.. why are people reacting to this as they are marveled by it?
@mcgeek47819 күн бұрын
Because this is a single event in a multiple- day, multiple-event per day competition that includes heavy lifting in addition to cardio events. I would agree that this isn’t impressive if it were a stand alone event, but it’s not. Not even close.

@@chrystiancrisostomo4528 ...wish I could...but at 68 years old I'm past my expiration date. I did run 4:42 a lifetime ago. But you are missing the point about the pacing. He gave inferior runners a much better chance of beating him with such a crazy first 200-400m. But running is just one of a zilion things these guys do so I should probably cut him so slack.

Lol mat’s discussion about his diet lacked the most important factor… SAMMY! He may not have been counting macros but I guarantee she was mindful of them for him. She is literally why his diet was so good and I think is probably one of the biggest reasons for his longevity. The hardest thing is diet fatigue and clearly sammy put in that work to prevent that
