You're in your fifties and you're running a sub 1:19 HM? Color me dubious on that one. Possible, but not likely.
Although you're right that it would be a piss-poor treadmill if it were built to max out at 8 minutes/mile pace or slower. I suspect none are, but I think the fellow reporting it was at heavy weight, so perhaps that affected things.
- Jenya_ 9y agostatistics shows there are indeed some runners in this age group which run 10k close to 6 minutes per mile and even faster: http://www.pace-calculator.com/10k-pace-comparison.php http://www.pace-calculator.com/10k-pace-comparison.php
- mikestew 9y agoYou caught me. 1:23, close enough for illustrative purposes. Besides, the age group record is 1:09, 1:19 isn’t that fast.
- hsitz 9y agoHa, still not bad, kudos. 1:19 is further out on bell curve tail, enough to raise some doubt, at least on a geeky website . . . .
