Running sub-5 when you're 15 and a twig is one thing. But completely insane when you're older and 194lbs of pure muscle. Props dude!
A sub 5:00 at 15 is beast mode, though I ran a 5:24 at 13, (and then there are the truly great high schoolers who run sub 4:00 at 17)
@@proverbalizer I ran 4:47 at the end of my freshman year in highschool, I’m going into junior year now but I was prob 6 foot 130 pounds when I did that😂 I am an absolute twig but it helps!
@@C.McL2006 I’m 5’11 and 128 pounds yet barely able to run 8:50-9:00, lol.
@@Stryfe52 just work on your breathing, im 6'4 210 and am able to run around 6:50-7:00 just by working on breathing techniques.
@@clidah4041 That’s what I’ve been doing for the most part, but I have noticed that my legs get tired before my lungs - if I’m really running for endurance; my lungs kind of get tired as a result of that. Doing something like running really fast in short bursts - like in soccer or something - completely gases out my lungs though, long before my legs. Any suggestions besides just moderating my breathing? I usually go 4 steps in, 4 steps out, or 2 steps in and 4 out.
i don’t think people who’ve never ran before know how insane this is
my best time for 1 mile was like 7min, could never go below 7 min
Right now I'm at a 5:16 mile, but I haven't ran that since February cause I was focusing on the 2 mile. Hopefully I can get there soon
@@ssgssleo2893 best of luck man, sounds like your getting there easy
Derek V. Bruce yeah but the fact that he’s 194 lbs is crazy
This is nuts... I've taken an interest in running and been trying to smash a good 1 mile time... my best to date is 6:55 at 238 lbs. Sub 5 is CRAZY.
Took less than 5 minutes to keep him happy for the entire week. Go out and get running guys!
The ultimate cardio.
This comment is deep for those who get it
@@XtremeFun Endorphins?
LITERALLY, the perfect comment
Facts ...a good workout usually last me 3 days
I started running to better my health, i am 6 ft and weighed 250 lbs, and i have high blood pressure, i wasnt even able to run a straight mile without stopping, i was finally able to run a mile in 14 minutes, after my 2nd month of training i dropped down to 7:46 a mile, may not seem like much to some of you all but im very proud of that accomplishment. I am down to 220 lbs now! Good video here guys!
7:46 👏
nice
How’d you do it?
Yeah, how’d you do it?
@@jdtvproductions9449 Just run and focus on getting a better time each week. Even if that better time is only by 1 second. im not sure if this guy really went down to 7 min in 2 months, but hey anything is possible. once i hit the 6 min, its got way harder. I cant escape 5:50. ive gotten 5:38 and 5:40's but that was rare. took me exactly a year to get down to 5:50.. take your time with it. dont injure yourself by pushing too much. no need for that.
"At some point in this run you're gonna see Jesus" Anyone's who's ever given it all in a mile run knows that's the truth
We have a similar expresion in Greek. I saw Christ soldier. Είδα το Χριστό φαντάρο. Meaning I did something so tough that I had hallucination of seeing Jesus Christ dressed as soldier.
I used to run xc and track and vividly remember every race the last 800 m was all out . wanted to throw up every time lol
that real talk ..if u don't run long miles u won't overstand..
Yep. Hardcore runs will make you go mentally insane lol
Mile and 1,500m races, the last 300m is an all out effort and yes you see Jesus all up that straight away and around the turn, until you kick again with 100m to go and then all you see are spots before your eyes and the finish line seems like it's 1,000 miles away. My favorite part of the race BTW!
A sub 5 minute mile at ANY weight is an outstanding achievement.
It is crazy when you really think about it
Yea but at 193 its nuts. I used to run XC in high school and I was never great but I was decent. My all time PR was 5:11 when I was 16 and weighed 125 pounds
I’m same height but 185, I think my current mile would be pretty ugly. ~5:30 range, this is really impressive to do it at that weight. Used to run in 4:30s but at 160.
@@pokerbuddy62 I ran XC this last year and my best was 5:35 at 150 pounds, got any tips for lowering that?
I was 4:25 at 115 lbs my junior year. It was an incredible achievement back then but I'd honestly never want that bodyweight again. 4 years later and im 150 lbs and I haven't run a mile since xD
My PR is like 6:18 and I was top speed sprinting and was dying after. You’re a monster!!! People don’t understand how freaking hard this is.
My fastest mile running alone was around 6:15. At track meets I was hitting sub 5's, there's a huge mental aspect to running
@@Smokeizimaybe he wasn’t running at a track and there was hills?
I just started running a month ago. My fastest 1 mile is still within 9 mins. I am aiming to run a mile within 6 or 7 mins. Root for me guys✌️
How’s the running going
@@itsjustme5097 Did 5k and also completed 10k. But not able to achieve under 60min mark. Been traveling last few weeks so running has some what came to halt. But will resume soon and try to achieve the Sub60 mark. The aim is to be a runner!
@@ChaitanyaBelhekar You got this. We all believe in you! 😎
@@ChaitanyaBelhekar new mile pr?
@@ChaitanyaBelhekar Chant 64 rounds bro and ill be even more impressed 👏
It's crazy how many people on here can run 4 minute miles
@@Who-Uhm-Cares youre a joke if you think its easy to run sub 5 minute mile.
We all know you can’t for sure
I run 5:04 but trust me now a days breaking 5 as a high schooler is chump change or at least where I compete kids are insane.
Ethan Tarrosa yeah my best time is 4:58 buts that’s nothing at my school
I’m 340 and run a 12 minute mile 😭😭
The fact that your pacer can coach, joke, and, laugh blows my mind. Today I retire from fitness.
Then the homie is just chilling ,while the nick out here dying
Hahahha
Dude that guy looks like he’s just doing it for fun lol
Being 50 pounds lighter I’m sure helps lol
4:15 mile fitness puts him in roughly 30:30 10k pace. Which is about the pace of this run. He could litterally run 5 more miles at that pace
Wow!!! Awesome job! I was 270LBS last year in may. Lost 85lbs in the 1.5 years through diet alone and just started exercising. I found a love for running that started August 13, 2021. I’ve been consistent with my running and even ran 3miles non stop in 39:39! I run 2 miles 5-6 a week now. My first mile run time was 15-16 min. My current PR is 11:46! 😭 I can’t wait to see where I’m at 6 months from now and my goal is to get under 10min.
Keep it up!
Setting new P.R.'s is so much fun. always compete against yourself and you will have a blast. What are you at now?
You got this!
Good job!!!
Impressive. Keep it up. Make it a life style.
Just PRed at 7:15 160lb / 5'10". This is absolutely amazing! Great work! A real inspiration
Nice! 👏
5:51 for me
I think this is 3:02 / km - insane. Now imagine Kipchoge had to run 2:51 / km for 2 hours straight to do a 2 hour marathon run. I guess that's what you get when your name sounds like 'keep jogging'.
I'm convinced Eliud Kipchoge is a supernatural being.
He is a beast
Honestly before I started running I couldn’t formulate those figures as I didn’t have a reference point. Attempting to break a 6 min mile right now and being exhausted (fairly fast runner) it is literally the most mind-bending athletic event across any sport to be able to maintain a 13 mph or 4:28 pace for not just 1 mile, but 26.2 (two hours) Most people can’t maintain this pace for 10 seconds, and he did for 2 hours. It is literally something out of a comic book.
Eliud Kipchoge is also 84 pounds lighter at 110.
Hahahaha Best one
And to think that the man who broke 2 hours on the marathon (Eliud Kipchoge) had to run faster than this pace...for 26.2 miles. So insane to me. Very impressive time.
Kipchoge isn’t human
Much faster. 4:34 mile compared to 4:53 mile is a crazy difference. Like if you run 4:53 in high school as a guy you’re just above average, but not really competitive. If you run 4:34 you can qualify for regionals.
Kelvin Kiptum do it easily@@crosh3301
What’s amazing is the fact that we all runners share one thing in common and that is maximum effort that we put in our runs. I love the way you ran mate. I have to try something like this.
Me: Sitting in my chair in front of my computer wondering how many Doritos I can eat in sub 5 min.
😂😂😂
I almost chocked laughing on my dorito while reading this..
🤣 💀
I’m 6’1 240 and i finally made a mile in a little under 8 min and RIP to my shins
wow... its good.. keep running...
a mile is a mile. weather u run in 5 or 9
I am 225 and that’s after losing 70lbs I don’t know if I could ever do anything like this.
House it can be done. As a 23 year old Green Beret I ran my 2 mile Army PFT time of 9:46 while 6'4"/247 lbs. They called me Clydesdale!
Jed Fisher man that’s intense!!!
4:53 and your weight is seriously impressive. I was a cross country/track runner during hs and ran 4:40 at 175 ibs but I’m 6’4. Running has gotta be one of the most mental challenging sports in my biased opinion.
Dan Cater what you are failing to understand Is I can do BOTH. I can run your mile in sub 5min, I’ve done it before. Took me 7months of focused training. I was stuck at 5:10 for a very long time. To break 5:00 was difficult for me, it took an all out sprint bc I weigh easily 30lbs more than you. I have row’d your row, and run your run. I have taken it to the next level. That’s what I am saying. Best of luck in your training. Bc my few reps of the box jumps completely Trump all the time and effort you are putting into your boring row. Beat yourself up all you want. I’m saying if you grew some balls you wouldn’t have to train so much to be in just as good, if not better shape, than you are now. That, is what I am saying. You are just at the beginning. You have much much more to learn.
@@dpcater i was gonna say the same thing. rowing is a true testament to your mental toughness
@@dpcater agreed. i pulled a 6:59.5 at age 15 a couple months ago, a 15 second PR after about half a year of training-with no one there to yell at me. I pushed so hard that I went past my max heart rate and when i finished i threw up for 40 minutes. torture for sure
@@dpcater mentaltoughness is a very useful attribute. any tips for a young rower like me?
@@dpcater this is awesome, i really appreicate this long reply. i hope you know youre helping shape my rowing career. i hope to row for college. out of curiousity, because you said you were a poor high school athlete, how long did it take you to get below 6:00?
When you realise kipchoge ran at a faster pace for 25.25 miles more
Yes, that puts all other running achievements in perspective doesn't it.
fr
At 120lbs still impressive
190lbs here, almost 40, adn after six months of training i get to 6minutes 15secs. Working hard to get it under 6. Thanks Nick for motivation !
Everyone: Marathoners and bodybuilders are slow runners Nick bare: Hold my supplements
k brown good shit bro!
@k brown I'm your same height and weight, but much younger and ran a similar time to you 5:10. This motivated me too. At age 37 5:17 is crazy impressive
He isnt a bodybuilder anymore, I mean he never was but hes gotten ALOT skinnier
Marathoners, slow? I mean, I guess not the winners. Those dudes rack together 26 well sub 5 miles. It's not even fair.
Most elite marathoners used to be elite middle to long distance runners.
The pacer aint even breathing hard at the end wtf
yeah you can tell that dude is a freak at running. pretty impressive
He's probably in low 4mins so this is like a tempo for him I guess
@@adamede9316 Nick said he did 4:15
u will ran that also if u keep ur ass out of the house
Maybe it has something to do with weight? Idk
I got 4:40 at state when I was 17 years old, 110 lbs. Now I'm 155lbs, and I'd like to see what I can do now. 190 and a sub 5 is insane! Great work!
Both you and Mitch are beast. The speed you guys ran this race demonstrates just how fit you two are. I'm new to running and you guys definitely inspired me. By the way, I love the shoes you're wearing, Nick.
This guy just said a “5 mile cool down”... I can’t even run 2 miles
And plus a 2 mile warm up

Actually you can run 2 miles, every one can. Not right now, maybe.
weak
@@HSGeorgiev no, you're right - anyone can run 2 miles. People are just mentally fucking weak and quit as soon as it starts to hurt.
I’m about a 12 minute mile. Working at it every day tho
Me too! We will get there !! My goal is 8 min mile
Me to
Get it Dawgy.
You'll get there :)
My best was 6 I think but now it’s gotta be 12 we’ll get there
You left it all out there! I love to see it! Maximum Effort! Proud of you dude! #Grit&Grind
honestly super helpful and inspiring - when I imagine people doing super impressive stuff like this I don't really imagine that they struggled at any point, I kind of forget about that part of it.
When I was wrestling in high school sitting at 177lbs I ran a 5:51 mile. I felt like I was going to die 😂 this man is insane.
Those 6 minutes made it feel like you was running for hours 😂
His coach wasn't even breathing heavily lol what a freak
@@TommyHiggz fr everyone talking about Nick but Mitch is a freak of fucking nature, man wasn't zoned in at all. Sub-5 is nothing for him.

Good. ..
@Farting Bean you know, you might be right...
This guys cool down is my top speed. Beast mode 😎 Keep going man. You keep us motivated.
Dude, you’re a freaking beast! I watched this vid after watching you run a 6 min mile at 225. You are truly an inspiration!
The pacer having full conversation while running that quick. Holy shit. He would’ve pissed me off and it would’ve made me run faster LOL
That is how I feel running a mile in 12 minutes. Need to step up my game.
You got to build strength with your heart. The best way to do it is trying to keep a consistent heart rate when you go for jogs. Build that initial strength and you'll know when u can push it more, it will take time but its fun to do !
Do more workouts other than running such as burpees, sprints, incline walking, jumping Jacks.
Nick is like a tank compared to his pacer. Both ripped, but Nick is just a beast out there. It's like a tank running with a Mini Cooper. Congrats. Much respect.
Way to go. I have been jogging for years and remember running a mile in 6 minutes. Never would I push myself that hard again. Congrats again.
You can tell Mitch is a cardio beast. Nick looks like he easily has 25+ lbs of solid muscle over his pacer. It's simply not easy to carry all that weight at any pace, that he did a mile in under 5 minutes is brutal.
The best I've ever run was when I was sophomore in high school soccer and it was a 5:54 at a whopping 5'6 and 135 lbs. Nick is insane. Makes me wanna start running again.
bro thats my exact height and weight right now 😂
and im a sophomore in high school
@@giovonni.mentality hes you from the future
Are you 180lbs now?
That’s exactly what I ran in Football was a 5:54, or 5:56. They made us run a mile one practice cause the coaches were mad at us lol. I never ran for the fun of it, or trained for it. Football is mostly just sprints, but that mile tore me up.
Great push! Getting back in to running and all your videos are really motivational!
The other dude running as a pacer, Nick running a 5min is awesome. Other dude doing it casually as a pacer while calling out times and motivating, is baller. Props to Nick and his support team.
just imagine Eliud Kipchoge running 26 Miles at an average pace of 4:40. :D lul
@Mustafa Khan INEOS doesn't count.
He weighs like 100 lbs
yeah but you can use that guy as grate between your tiles....
Ryan A.P. He’s at 139
I don’t get why the running community does this just appreciate what h Th is man is doing at his weight and his dedication to getting better and better at running
Embrace the suck! You continue to inspire me everyday man!
Great job both you guys! I miss running so much. Running is the best workout in my opinion. Sadly years of football and not recovering from injuries properly has taken it away from me. Keep up the great work!
Try rowing, possible to get a similar effect monitoring your time. Machines are cheap too or better yet, outside.
Great job, guys! That was awesome! MAN, you're fast for such a big dude! It gives me hope. I'm 5'9 145lbs. I'm in my 50s but, I am pushing myself!😬💪🏽
The pacer ran that while talking and pumping up the other guy the entire time. That's crazy
Best mile I ever did was 7:15 and that took everything I had. Incredible video and outstanding work! Awesome!
This is one of my all-time favorite fitness videos on the internet.
First time watcher here, pretty cool vid.
Ive been running since the start of quarantine. When I started I ran a 12 min mile on a track, now I can run 5.5 miles in under 40 min with 400+ ft of elevation. Don't give up on yourself and keep on runnin!!!
How is it possible that the pacer is talking so much at the end, was this actually his conversational pace?
Its like... hes talking normal as if hes just lounging on a sofa. Also, love that chuckle at the end of the run. Lol
@@olymsailor83 I mean, his PR is way faster. He would probably go out this fast for his first mile of a 5k.
My conversational pace is 9 minute miles
@@tiananman first mile of a 5k haha
That’s like his pace for 10k I’d assume.
Dude you’re a monster. Love how much you push yourself on the daily!
I love the motivation from his friends. This was awesome.
my fastest was around 10 minutes. Need to start running again, so satisfying.
I ran a 4:56 mile two weeks in a row when I was 17. Districts and regionals in track. Exact same time both weeks- 4:56. It was the absolute best I could do. I have no regrets. I was 6'1" and 165 lbs at the time. You have no idea how crazy it is to run 4:53 at 194 lbs. It's INSANE!!
6'1" and you were 165? Holy fuck, I guess I'm overweight at 180 pounds 5'8" lol
Hey, good point. that is what I am thinking when kids here are bragging that they can run sub 5.0 , forgetting that running @ 195 pounds is not same as running @ 140 pounds . Also there is a age factor.
@@DiabolicMagicSquare if he lost 40lbs and trained for distance running he would be fast asf like 4:20 range without a doubt.
It's a good time, but definitely not "INSANE". I ran a solo mile time trial this year in 4:47 at 6' 190lbs and 37 y.o. and I'm just a mediocre runner so 🤷. That time gets blown out of the water at any county high school competition.
great work. lmao at your buddy laughing at the finish line like it was a breeze
To run a sub 5min mile is amazing. To do it at 194lbs is a herculean effort. Wow, this is insane -- way to go!
Hey Nick, just wanted to give you a shout-out from Romania brother. You are a real inspiration all over the world, hope you know that. Keep going my man.
clapped irl when you said you put everything out on the table, love seeing people give everything they got to acheive a goal. nice work guy
When their 1 mile time is your 1km time 😂👍🔥
I love this - I started running March 2020 during covid at 5km in 25 minutes. I now run 10km in 40 and just started hitting 15km at 70minutes. Weighing in at 85kgs I feel this guy on a spiritual level. Absolutely mad props, would absolutely love to give something like this a go.
Your video inspired me to get a PB of 5:02 today and made me feel that sub 5 is possible!
Wow! Killer mile! Out recording some of my running footage and had to drop everything to see it for myself. Pretty good range being able to run what you have run in the mile and marathon! Good to get mile speed even for a marathon. Makes running at marathon pace that much easier!
Roadrunner Training Projects he ran amazing!
I was bald I got finally done check this kzhead.info/sun/jbaim9BuoqVqra8/bejne.html

Always left inspired after a Nick Bare video! I had to try this out for myself on my KZhead Challenge Series! And now I respect it even more haha!
So awesome ! Way to go Nick !
That was crazy, well done Nick that effort was amazing!
Ended on an incline too jeez crushed that respect. Go one more.
Congratz. I just got back into running after a decade+ break from it and I was able to outpace my son a few times. Really enjoyed the video.
I’m currently 145lbs and my 1 mile run is 11mins right now. I want to improve really bad but I’m recovering from a strained muscle 😩… congrats man! I hope to reach that 1mile 5mins run and make it a norm soon!
You should just get out there and run for enjoyment for awhile. You will get newbie gains without much thought.
Ah yes the power of vaporfly. The return on energy is so good.
Is that so?
SpartanFit Spartan Yep very much so. Feel like trampolines pushing your forward with each step
Andre Johnson still have to have an engine behind the wheels
Zach Catalano Yes but the wheels bounce like a tennis ball on the ground
Zach Catalano oh agreed, Nike has nailed the technology that if the right”engine” uses them can pull of some ridiculous human feats. kipchoge definitely proved that with the new vaporfly and same here with nick. I can also attest to them, ran my first full in the original version and it was a lost less taxing than my training pair of Pegasus which I can do a 5’30 in but my body is wrecked afterwards.
Absolute beast!!!!! You pushed hard at the end and gave it everything. Thank you for recording And commentating this man. I’m aiming for sub-5:00 and this is super motivational 🙌🙌🙌🙌
i have the same PR at 4:53. that’s really impressive considering i weighed about 140 in a competitive atmosphere with a crowd and you did it with just a pacer. good job man.🤙🏽💯
Absolutely freaking incredible work!
I think you're 2 mile warm up and 5 mile cool down are so key. Endurance sports often overlook the prep/cool down time that literally makes the event.
I never comment, but you deserve a lot of credit for this. The girls I coach watch your videos as motivation, keep it up! 4:45???
This guy is a beast! Not just the mile time at his size, but the warm up he did leading up to the mile.
Love that motivation!!! I'm 266 and just broke under 9mins... Great PR!!
I'm going to comment STRAVA on every single video until you get one. STRAVA BOY STRAVA!!!

right on nick, that is a gravity defying run for your size! most serious runners cant even do that for a mile
I would love to see more insight into your injury prevention methods. I think injuries are a part of aggressive training but you don't seem to get injured (Knock on wood, don't jinx him please!)
Johnna Marcus a lot of stretching and foam rolling helps a lot
Johnna Marcus probably a lot of glutamine too
Johnna Marcus he use to do alot of heavy squat and deadlifts that will injury proof you
Just my opinion.. 1 gram of Testosterone per week along with HGH are great for recovery.

was 2 and 4 seconds short on trying the sub 5min the last 3 days. recover and trying again next week. thanks for the motivational video Nick!
Tell me if you succeed
Starting watching back in October 2020 and started running again after blowing up to 234 lbs at 5’6 during the pandemic…my first day I was struggling to run 1 lap at the track but I kept working at it, I’m now doing a 7:24 mile and a 37 minute 4 mile loop at our local park I’m averaging about 20 miles a week now and I’m down to 185 lbs…and at 30 years old married and a father of 3 I can honestly say I’m in the best shape of my life! but I’m not stopping there I’m gonna keep going!
Crazy…I did a 4 mile loop at 37:33. I was 212.8 lbs at the time. Trying to currently get down to about 189
I haven’t run in 2 1/2 years since senior year of cross country ended in the fall of 2017. You inspired me to run again so I started running again 4 days ago and I’m about to run my first McKirdy mile race. I’m going for sub 7, I’ll be back with my time once I finish.... UPDATE: I ran a 6:23
What were your times when 1st getting back into it?
@@jcherestal when I went out for my first run it was a high 8 almost 9 minute mile and I barely made it

@@climatepurification hell yeah man, good luck!
To run at that speed the way you're built, wow! Congratulations!
Thanks for this. I'm close to 200lbs and it's good to know this is possible
Your an absolute beast bro. I started running two months ago and I kinda like it. You inspired me to get into running
he helped me get started too! Keep going, it's so worth it! I'm down 50lbs from the start!
That's extremely impressive! Amazing pacer too!
This is really impressive! I have a mile PR of 4:14, but I’m 5’6 and was 137lbs at the time and was running collegiate track. My goal is to get up to 150-155 with strength training, but I was always worried about it negatively affecting my running performance. This has definitely motivated me! Congrats!!!
@@Smokeizi When you run competitively from the age of 11 a breaking 5:00 is always a big milestone. Racing in High School I was around a lot of the same competitors and we would inch closer to that sub-5 mark. Once its broken though, its easy for that to become the new standard and at a certain point its easy to become desensitized. In college, just about everyone who races the mile as their main event is in the mid to low 4's. I hope I didn't come off as making it seem easy. It certainly takes a lot of dedication and training to get to the sub 5:00 mark and shows an excellent level of cardiovascular fitness and a harness of both the aerobic and anaerobic systems.
@Smokeizi These online clowns just run their mouths, it's stupid... breaking 6 mins for the mile is big for the vast majority of the population. Honestly, if I don't see video proof of their claims, I just take it with a grain of salt.
Damn nick that is flying, I run every day and have not gotten that fast yet! well done bro, keep killing it!
That’s amazing, would love to know what your heart rate was during and at the end
Geses. I'm out of breath just imagining this....haha Congratulations - mad inspiring.
That is incredible! The fastest mile I ever did was 5:10 and that was 10 years ago for me in high school, and 30 pounds lighter than you. I tried running a mile recently and could only get 7:30. I was so tired, still in decent shape and weigh about the same. Just assumed i could never get to my fastest again, but seeing this. Maybe I can get just a little faster, I think its possible now so I am gonna keep at it. Good stuff!
Beast mode. I started running 2 weeks ago, ran half a mile then nearly collapsed, my second attempt was 1 mile in 12 minutes. 2 weeks later i just did 1 mile in 9.50. My next goal is under 9 minutes.
Awesome so fast Nick! You worked hard for that time! I ran my mile yesterday and got 7:08 at 237 lbs you are an inspiration to me. Keep up the great work.
Goku Runner wow keep at it 🏃💪
@@arodmind1637 thanks. Im debating on doing another mile so soon. U can see the vid of my mile on my channel if interested.
Goku Runner good work. Keep at it. Definitely will help if you don’t run with a camera on the hand. Unless it’s tiny. Hopefully we make it to Boston with Nick. Check me out 😉
@@arodmind1637 lol yes I made up my mind not to run with a camera next time especially if it isn't recording. Get to uploading more brotha. Nice vids.
Damn that's fast are you tall!!!
Wow. That pace man is incredible and at almost 200 pounds, amazing job.
That is amazing that you ran 4:53 at 194lbs. Inspiring to say the least!
Very impressive - especially at 194lbs - WOW! Weight is a huge factor in running - so hat's off to you for accomplishing this.
