Under 5 minutes a mile – Not Bad
Posted By vblack on March 19, 2011
Here is an interesting article about the LA Marathon.
The winner ran 26.2 miles in 2 hours 6 minutes and 35 seconds. That is about 4.83 minutes per mile. Not bad,especially when you realize this was the guys first marathon.
I don’t think I am going to try to beat that. on my first marathon. But I do think it would be a good idea to schedule a Marathon Makeover field trip to Africa. Those guys over there can run a Marathon.
God Bless
