Would a treadmill be safe at that pace? 13mph is extremely fast especially over a sustained period of time.

Would a treadmill be safe at that pace? 13mph is extremely fast especially over a sustained period of time.
- mkl 7y agoI don't know how safe it is, but people have done times in that general speed range, e.g. Eric Blake's 2:21:40: https://www.recordholders.org/en/list/treadmill.html https://www.recordholders.org/en/list/treadmill.html
- DrOctagon 7y ago2:21 is not even in the same ballpark as <2:00. 2:21 is a very respectable time, but not even international/national standard. It's a chasm.
- mkl 7y agoWhen you're talking about treadmill speed and the mechanics of that (which we are), it's definitely in the same ballpark. In terms of running, no.
