[@vdoggydogg3922]

The fact she ran that fast with no competition and having to pass lapped girls the entire time is amazing.

[@keithtinkler4073]

Yes, there was a big fuss in 2022 (April), when she broke the Collegiate 5K, that she had been helped by pacers, but I think the problem was with them being fast enough for her!! because she broke loose with 800m to go, upped the pace substantially, and just flew round the track. Running that much faster for 800 m suggests she didn't need pacers.

[@ReverZe83]

When you've got runners to lap it actually helps, it's a target to hunt down.

[@SuperChuckRaney]

@@ReverZe83 Definately. I race cross country dirt bikes, can be 800 paid entries, with the skill divisions can have 200-300 riders on the track at same time. Sooo, they way it works out, with 1 minutes apart starting, from class to class, 1 min delay. Not sure if that reads right. But the lead line (the fastest avg lap time) class leaves about 20 mins from last line. And these are all Experts and upper Intermediate riders. So there are lappers to pass on the 2nd lap, 3rd lap for sure. Seeing lappers around the course makes a big difference, I've regularily gotten 1-2 minutes faster each lap. 4-5 lap race. So that's 5 to 10 minutes faster on the last lap. 10 mile course. Avg 35-45 mins per lap.

Covid19 is not that dangerous, quit watching the news many money making headlines out there. There are many doctors that are on the other side with evidence but know one wants to lisen.

[@XXXLmaster]

@@SuperYoungblood123 The evidence the 'doctors on the other side' usually looks pretty plausible and convincing on first look, but once you look into their evidence, things start to fall apart. I've seen a ton of evidence using known-wrong data, studies that were carried out without regard to scientific standards (might as well call them biased because the data base isn't usable for the study), or draw conclusions you can't draw from the data they present. If you look at the hospitals in hotspot regions and ask people who work in an icu, they'll tell you how their situation is. I've read a lot of reports from ICU nurses, doctors, and other staff who actually do work with the covid patients and these people confirm that it is serious. I'll much rather trust people with hands-on experience than those with questionable sources who don't even work with the patients anymore.

[@CzechRiot]

It is not that dangerous. The whole thing has been exaggerated. You need only compare it to numbers of others diseases, or respective deaths. About 700 thousand die each year from pneumonia; they should input those number into the COVID deaths, because these people would die anyway. The vast majority os the people of the world did not, and would not get the disease, and most of those who get it, have the same symptoms of an average flu or whatever. But, anyway, it´s all somewhat part of the same idea behind car safety, or any other social safety measure, in terms of diminishing the amount of people getting hurt by things. But the media and propaganda are too intense, the fear factor and psychological hammering of this virus is disproportional to the harm it causes, it has caused, compared to "regular life" harm. It´s just other diseases and accidents don´t get reported in a scrutinized way daily on every minute of every hour.

(Granted, I'm outdoors jogging with wind, traffic, and an uneven surface but still.) I'm not a pro runner by any means, but to run 5k in 15 minutes is incredible.

[@TheDwightMamba]

I pulled it off once in high school. It's a rush to cover 3.1 miles in such a short time. Took 19 years off and ran a random 5K at a go kart race weekend. I won it with a time of 20:30 and penguin walked for 10 days. 2nd place wasn't even in frame when I finished. Worth it.

[@hiratiomasterson4009]

I know the dad of a girl who raced Katelyn earlier in the year and spoke to him about his daughter's thoughts about racing her: it's not easy for all of these other girls psychologically. In a more normal time, there would be perhaps a few slightly better runners than the rest of the pack, but those would not be unbeatable at all times. But Katelyn is a once in a generation - at least - athlete that exists in a realm different to that of her competitors. When I asked the dad what his daughter found the toughest part of her race against her, he said it was towards the last few minutes or so of the race: it's not just watching the pace of Katelyn, but her composure: the technical perfection of her stride, the discipline, the focus and the look on her face when she goes past you - the ease of what she is doing is what is so numbing for other runners. With everyone else, there's the legs slowing down, the arms dropping a little, slightly less co-ordination...and pain. Katelyn seems like a CGI animation done to perfection, start to finish. And she's still a kid. There is of course the chance that as her body changes it may have the impact that it has had on so many other great female runners, but if she simply becomes stronger...you are looking at a legend of the 2020s and beyond.

[@exploranator]

Curious how much she will be vaunted by the worldwide media.

[@TheNameOfJesus]

For me, the best moment was at 11:10 when she seemed to be keeping pace with a long jumper who had to run only 40 yards in 10 seconds. When you can run 5.0k at the same speed as someone running 0.04k, you're strong and fast. I also noticed at 11:26 some boy in the background tried keeping pace with her for 40 yards, and he certainly did, but that was all.

Ketelyn's pace was continuous, yet passing the slower runners may have caused her to slow a bit. each lap that she made seemed to be better than the previous. the audience were supporting Ketelyn and you could hear the announcer saying something like "let's give a round of applause to Ketelyn Tuohy." the title of the video should say "Unbelievable Ketelyn Tuohy Breaks National 5K Record!" anyway, this video was enticing and i enjoyed every minute of it, could not did not want to pause it.
