What if medical science were used to give someone metal shin bones and toes. Wouldn't that person then be able to run longer distances? Perhaps 300 mile weeks become possible with the right bionic upgrades and doping. Then the 2 hour marathon is history.
Granted, but nevertheless nobody living today will see a 2:00 marathon in their lifetime.
2:00 for 26 miles is moving.
People don't understand how fast that is.

Oh no, trust me we do. It's 4:34 min/mile pace for a marathon and it's very likely to happen within the next fifty years. In fact, it definitely will happen by then.

I like the idea, but wouldn't muscles and tendons be an issue too? I don't think bones would be entirely the issue with running 300 mile weeks.
This might have been possible in 1991 but John Connor destroyed all our endoskeletons from the future
