If you were to run alongside Kipchoge, how long would you last? This is what 2:01:39 pace translates to for various distances.

I'd probably be spent at about 700m. With some hard training, I could maybe make it a full 800m.

For those who want to try this tomorrow let me know how you go .

For those trying to get a handle on how amazing this is he just ran slightly better than 20.7 k/hr for a bit more than 2 hours
Try to do this on a treadmill for a bit more than 2 MINUTES & see how you go
Most treadmills won't even be capable of this speed because it's just silly

After watching every scene of @TomCruise running (see link); What did I learn?

Cruise is a natural. Looks like a real runner, not some guy imitating how he thinks running/sprinting should look. This is very rare

Overall: His mechanics are impressive.
