The undisputed fastest running shoes in the world are 3mm drop & the 26.2 World Record is now 1:59:30. When I first put shoes in my toaster oven to create the world's first cushioned Zero Drop running shoes in 2008, the nearly all running shoes were 10-12mm drop & (cont. part 2)

Part 2: ...and the World record was 2:04:29. 5 minutes faster in 17 years and change. For reference, the previous 5 minutes took 40 years, going back to Derek Clayton's 2:09:36 in May of 1967!
@singulieroblige@CSP_News Go drive in Europe or the UK and it will make sense quickly. Traffic flows SO much better when people stay out of the outside lane. People passing on the right is dangerous. People having to weave in and out of traffic is dangerous. Move right and the morons can speed on the left
@Apollod282477@LOBig12 I mean, I guess if you don't like huge mountains, waterfalls, great food, mountain biking, trail running/hiking, longboarding down the canyon, waterskiing, flyfishing, a great tech scene, and all kinds of entertainment that aren't alcohol related, then yeah.
@onX4sports@LOBig12 Possibly true, but also, due to the high married population, it's been shown that there is more sex going on at BYU than any other university in the country.
@GeorgeThoros @TheChosenUte According to all the metrics, BYU's schedule was average for the Big 10. Statistics say BYU would likely have had the same record with an average Big 10 schedule.
@GeorgeThoros @TheChosenUte BYU's #22 composite strength of schedule was right in the middle of the Big 10. B1G schedule was tough this year for sure, and BYU's schedule was on par with the average B1G team.
@GeorgeThoros @TheChosenUte According to an aggregate of all the Strength of Schedule rankings (Massey Composite), BYU's SOS was #22 in the country & nearly identical to Iowa, Indiana, USC, Michigan St, and Illinois. And unlike all those teams but Indiana, the only team they lost to was the #4 CFP team.
@secnumbersguy That #4 Big12 team was tied with 3 teams and while they finished that way due to tiebreakers, most anyone in the know would bet on many other B12 teams over them.
@AllinYellin@HawkGuyEnjoyer Except a middle of the pack Houston Team who played about the easiest schedule of the Big 12 teams just beat LSU of the SEC...
@HawkGuyEnjoyer Against other conferences, Big 12 is 2-0 and SEC is 0-3. Iowa State of the 'Mid 12' beat Iowa this year and is in the bottom half of the Big 12. B1G is top dog this year, but only their top teams...bottom half is pathetic.
