I find it interesting that measurements for both time and distance are pretty much random concepts made by humans. There's just something so psychologically powerful about round numbers in our measurement systems; I bet this feat would have stayed unbroken if the term -marathon- meant 30 miles or if -hour- meant 70 minutes.

I guess American runners are just too lazy. I run more than two hours straight during my morning jogging routines just for the fun of it. A professional runner should not have any problem beating that challenge. This video hurts my brain really bad.

Pretty sure the fore foot thing definitely isn-t a myth. It-s more of a thing for sprinters u need to have quick turn over if u want to be elite. When ur approaching human limits minute things like that matter.

The Usain bolt top speed of 28mph blew my mind. But for some reason that seems way less impressive than going 13mph for 2 HOURS! What?
