      @@sorrym8421 most distance world records weren't even splits, marathon wr is negative splits, same with kenenisas 5000m, 3000m world record was led out fast and slowed down just like galen, consistent splits are not necessary for a world record, a good time? maybe, a world record? doesn't matter as long as you have the mental strength and physical strength to accomplish it.

      @@DrReddit That's total nonsense. Every world record was run with almost perfectly even splits, especially the events you just listed. They run even splits the whole race and then sprint as fast as they can the last lap. Every world record is even splits the whole race and a bit faster for the last lap.

      Fine Wine Daily “almost perfectly” none of those were close to being perfect even splits, at all, do you even know the splits? 2 seconds between splits are a huge margin, especially running at a pace that’s elite, it’s not nonsense, it’s you being delusional, many records were set with even splits, many were not

      Was Komen running indoors in that record?

      Also, no one could’ve predicted Grant’s insane progression over the last 2 years, which is why it’s sus. When I wrote this, no one was breaking 13, no one was running sub 3’55, no one was running sub 7’35. Barely any Americans had even run close to sub 27’10. We’re not even factoring in super shoes/super spikes 😂 and if people think they don’t make a difference they’re insane. The amount of extra training you can do with Vaporfly’s on your feet is wild. Remember, Galen was running 100 miles a week on an underwater treadmill because that was the best way they could find to increase volume of work without causing more damage. Now the shoes and spikes are doing it. We’re in a difference era now. However, my point with Galen in the half or full still stands. Maybe someone could snipe him in a half marathon but no American is beating him head to head in a marathon.

      N J no, 2 miles is a tad over 3200 metres. One miles is actually 1609 metres, but it’s usually rounded in track meets

Anyone who has ever run these longer track distances (1400 to 10,000 meter) knows how HORRIBLE it can be! Your lungs are on FIRE, your legs feel like lead and EVERY fiber of your being is screaming, "STOP! WE CAN'T TAKE THIS $#!+ ANYMORE!"😣😵But, you FORCE yourself through you sheer GUT-WRENCHING determination to PRESS ON as FAST you can! Ah...good times!😅
