how the fuck you run at that pace for 26 miles? 

[Mladen Orlovic]

i wouldve dropped dead after a minute of that pace

[That Guy Who Says One Does Not Simply]

Hard work.

They probably didn't. They probably ran slower until the end. Then when they broke off from everyone else and started racing they pushed each other to that insane speed. My guess is that they're under 5:30 per miles at that point.

[Anthony Wallick]

its simple if they were running a 5 minute pace thats 12mph and at 2 hours they would hit 24 miles then 26 at around 2:10. they are averaging just under a 6 minute mile

[Anthony Wallick]

thats just the girls, the men finished the race 20 minutes before this

que carreron , pta madre..!!!

It's possible they were touching on mid 4's right near the end, however. Certainly not for a whole mile, but this is the last quarter or so we are talking about. No, they aren't going to close a 60, but something in the 65-70 range is plausible.

They were running sub 5 pace towards the end there.

[LMaster1]

Yea and the men run at 30-40sec/mile faster, around 4:45 pace. Crazy stuff!

[huradamlardanbiri]
