Glad Theo made this video It’s hard to have an actual idea of how impressive Kipchoge’s record break is unless you have running experience. Seeing this just shows the levels at which Kipchoge is at. What a specimen he is.

He is a specimen because his body is so accustomed to running there is no unnecessary weightage in his body sub 10 body fat percentage no big muscles absolute beastly human

[@bradley4706]

@@adityakr7895 I don’t know if he is from this area,but Kenya has an area where people live that’s 8000 feet above sea level. Being born and raised in that altitude mean your lungs work twice as hard as everyone else’s until they have adjusted to it. Then they train up there. Their lungs are something people that live at sea level couldn’t understand without altitude masks. People like kipchoge are just marvels

We used to have something called the cooper test in the Netherlands. It's just 12 minutes of running but for the boys A+ or 10/10 would be 3200 meters. Only managed to get it once, but that's exactly 3:45 per km for 12 minutes.

Top speed of Nordictrack's treadmills are 12 MPH, or 5 min per mile pace or 3:07 minutes per kilometer. AssaultRunner treadmills assuming you can run fast enough will let you hit that speeds, which is why it feels harder, because you where never running that fast on the treadmill. There is no proof or time from the treadmills are ever shown, but the truth is they where running 5 minute mile pace or slower.
