Runners Attempt Eliud Kipchoge’s World Record Marathon Pace

[@RunnersWorld]

Is this the fastest Vaporfly yet? Check out our review: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jIq9qGqreM5lf6c

[@_Woo]

I remember when I first moved to Kenya during high school. I participated in a cross country run and there were like 4 younger kenyan boys with us (international school). As the race started they took off at what could only be described as a sprint from my point of view. The rest of us figured that they would get tired and we would catch up maybe halfway. Infact we did not see them again until the next day. When the first of us reached the finish line they had already showered, eaten and left.

At the absolute peak of my physical fitness, I was able to run a 5 minute mile. The amount of training I did for that was ridiculous (for my standards) and after I completed that, I dropped to the ground and just layer there. So proud, still a favorite life memory. For 5 minutes! He was faster than that pace for 2 hours! My god

[@dpavlovsky]

Yeah it's insane to think about. My proudest running accomplishment was doing 2 miles in about 00:11:30. I can't even wrap my head around a sub 5 min/mile pace for 2 hours.

[@wallstreetoneil]

You have either trained in track & field or you haven't - there is no, I'm a good athlete, I'm in shape, I can do this - you can, but you won't last long and your form falls apart immediately. I ran the 800 & 1500 for 2 years in high school - at the time, I was an elite level soccer player and in better shape than anyone I knew - until I started training track. We trained intervals over and over at a 28,30,32-second 200-split pace - 34 was almost slow motion - and that is why it looks so easy for her. High school boys can hold that pace for 1 to 1 1/2 miles. I thought a lot about his pace when he later broke the 'unofficial' 2-hour marathon record - I personally believe it is the greatest physical achievement of any kind ever by a human being. The only possible way this was achieved was to approach the marathon distance from a track-split-perspective, like he did, and then pick the 200-pace (34seconds) that he believed was doable and then figure out how to do it. I can actually understand personally why this 34-second pace was picked - it's doable when you train - it keeps you just on the razors-edge safe side of aerobic failure - once you are 32 and below, you are on the anaerobic death march to failure. I look back now as a 50-year old to what a 28-second 200 pace is, convert it to a treadmill mph speed, and I'm in disbelief that I actually ran that fast. If you went to any gym in the world, and set the treadmill to 15mph (if it could go that high), and you started running on it, the entire gym would stop and watch thinking you were insane - and it's just the pace highschool track kids train at.

@Supa Mario some forms of "zombie" do already exist and it is actually possible for something similar to eventually afflict humans. There's a fungus that overtakes Ants and makes them do their bidding. Some wasps can even hijack a spider and make them spin special webs. Parasites can affect the way animals, that includes Humans, behave. Making them likely to have behaviors that spread or maintain the infection in some way or another. All it would take is for a disease/parasite/fungus to mutate in just the right way, usually from a domesticated animal first (like influenza), so that it can affect humans too. Just imagine if Rabies affected humans like it does Dogs.

It's quite hard and only a small percentage of people can do it. Just try it and see how hard it is. He ran like that for 2 hours. It boggles the mind that anyone could run a marathon at that pace. All the top marathon runners run at an insane pace, but Kipchoge has outdone them all!! One of the greatest athletic achievements in history!

[@gregmccauley1687]

a 400 in 68 seconds is really bad. Keeping that pace for an entire mile would put you just over 4 minutes 30 seconds, which is a lot more impressive. These people don't know how to run with a stride, that's their problem. It's insane to think about 100m-200m-400m world records. The 400 is practically run at the same pace as the 200, which isn't far from 100. A full sprint just about.

What they are not facing: • Air resistence • More force needs to be applied since the road won't be going back like the threadmill.

[@ronanmcintyre]

The air resistance factor is missing here, but the track moving back is equivalent to you moving forward on the road, so the required force is not different

[@myagrimm4719]

@@ronanmcintyre is it really equivalent? That makes sense, but it also feels much different running on the ground vs a treadmill. When on a treadmill, you're essentially staying in the same spot but when you run with the ground under your feet you have to push off and move yourself forward which seems like it takes more energy or does that feeling just come from the air resistance?

[@ronanmcintyre]

@@myagrimm4719 When you're running on the road, you have to push against the road to keep yourself moving at a constant speed, and if you push less, you slow down. On a treadmill, you push against the moving track to keep yourself stationary, and if you push less, you get pulled backward with the track. So as far as I understand, it's only the relative speed that matters. Same way wings and cars are tested in wind tunnels where the air moves but the model doesn't - those tests still accurately simulate the object moving through the open (still) air. So I think the only factors which are different are the air resistance and the bounciness of the treadmill track (it seemed pretty bouncy in this video, which I think contributed to the bad running form from a lot of those participants).

[@fpsreactions8481]

@@ronanmcintyre Not really. You could always push your self and spend longer time on the air whilst the treadmill goes past you.
