2:51 / km. 1k record is 2:11.

Would be:

  • 14 min 5k
  • 28 min 10 k

Or, as I call it "all out sprint".

There are lots of funny videos of people trying to run this pace.

Ya, having run 3 marathons and two 50ks I very much appreciate how unbelievable that time is...

It's like the elite runners are not really human :)

Great job on the marathons. I actually only accidentally replied to you instead of top level comment.

:), I do stand by my simple comment "amazing"

It really is hard to comprehend the pace they have to run to do that.
