    That’s simply insane. ~13.1 miles (~21.1 km) at <57 minutes is such an incredible pace. That averages out to about 4:20 minutes per mile, or 2:42 minutes per kilometer.

    Amazing.

      That’s 13.8 miles per hour. Faster than my commercial treadmill can go. I’ve run a half marathon and mostly focus on 5ks and I even hobby runners won’t be able to sustain 13.8 mph for much more than a minute let alone 57…

      Insane!

        Right?? Even at my peak fitness, my fastest mile was about 4:10 and I literally puked after just doing one mile (and I definitely didn’t keep running afterwards). Here’s this dude maintaining that speed for 13 miles.

      Here my upvote for going the extra mile (kilometrer) to provide both distance and pace in both metric and imperial.
