In his defense, you only have to run at 20mph for about a step as you’d be slowing down pretty fast.

This made me think of that time my partner’s brother told me in complete earnest that he’d be able to jump off a skateboard going 20+ mph and run it out based solely off the fact that the fastest recorded human running speed is 28 mph and therefore he, an average fit 20 y.o. should be able to achieve 75% of that.

Your torso and face certainly make for an effective, if slightly messy, brake.

running at 12mph on a treadmill is scary and fucking exhausting.

Yeah, I used to be able to do 1 mile flat out at about 9 mph, then I’m toast.

I did 1 mi. in 7:19 today.
I have done 9.2 mph in some 1-2 minute sprints for HIIT.
I’d want somewhere soft to land (when the treadmill threw me) and a first aid team ready if I were to even attempt 12 mph!

yeah I was 15 years younger when I tried it and it was just a novelty.
