    alright you fucking sloths

    new 10km world record. Cheptegei runs 10k in a sharp Park Run time of 26:11.

    For those playing at home, that's basically running 100 x 15 second 100m sprints continuously.

    That is insane. And I used to be able to run two miles in nine minutes flat.

    Pfft, speed up slow pokes. Back in the day I had a training time of 52s for 400m and 1:58 for 800m. Best racing times were unfortunately a tad slower at 58 and 2:00.

    Of course the day was around 96 when I was 17 and I probably weighed sub 70kg. I think I could maybe double those times now.

    Quoting myself, but I just looked again at those times. They're clearly fucking quick, but also a MASSIVE difference in your 400m times, 52 v 58 is huge! At 52s you must have been a talent?!!!

    I was never a runner at school, and remember running a 400m in about 70s in 6th form 😀

    Yeah only did athletics for a very short time, so only a small selection to go off and had no idea how to run those races. McEvedy champ though!

    Jesus Christ. That's beyond ridiculous.

    Earlier this year, I was really comfortable at 5:15 p/km for some good distances - up to 20k ish. On some fartlek training sessions, I'd occasionally get a sub 4:30 km but that was about it. I'd be too worried to run faster about a muscle strain.

    Farken crazy eh!

    Cant fathom that pace! Have a mate whos bit of a running machine and his casual jogs are 4min/km and then happily below mid 3.30s when the pace is on. Just looked and his last 10km was averaged at 3min 24s km pace which seems good but then you compare to above WR thats like about 1 min quicker per km and for every km.......fark

    Update - just saw said mate did a marathon in the weekend at a cheeky 2hrs 41mins...averaging 3min50sec kms. I'd be happy with just one of those kms

    That is a great time. ATM I'm happy with anything under 6:30 😉

    Pretty amazing, Ruth Croft has won the UTMB Mont Blanc World Series 100 mile race.

    She's won plenty but this completes the first-ever sweep of the three main UTMB race formats by a woman, she must be a cracking good chance for a Halberg.
