Sitting in my office today, a couple of my coworkers got into a heated debate on who would win a race between a biker and a runner in a 400m race. The race would take place on a track, and it would be lanes all the way around.
The runner in this race was a 400m runner in college, at a good division 1 program, who thinks he can still run at least a 50. The biker is just a good all around athlete.
I keep looking at this challenge, and I just don't know who I think will win. I believe the 400 runner has the advantage at the start. The only problem for the biker is the corners, obviously.
So anyway, I was wondering what your thoughts are. Who wins, and how fast do you think someone can bike 400 meters?
