I was able to last for 28 minutes running at 10.0 speed (the max) on my treadmill. It was basically a race lol. How long can you guys last?

Covered this a bit in this video:
that pace is a little slower than my marathon PR pace (2:35 PR @ 5:55 pace)
I didn't see you meant 10 mph. I thought you meant 10 second 100m speed.
6 minute pace..........?
I did 3x'10' on the treadmill with 4 minutes between ALL the time during high school winters. Just because. It worked out well.
Half a mile
45 seconds max
I usually turn it up to eleven. It’s like ten but one notch more. It’s like you get to ten and need that little extra. Bang you go to eleven.
a couple hours
I've run 10 miles sub 58 - which for the Letsrun elite is nothing to brag about - but I'm still proud of it - considering I was 19 and doing it off inconsistent training (and 7 months after a surgery). And, this was done at a bit of altitude (2200 feet) and on a moderately hilly course. Perhaps 57 flat at sea level? Who knows.
So in my 'prime' I could have done an hour I'm sure.
I began to set my treadmill at a 1.5% incline after reading that doing so makes up for wind resistance.
I've since done many treadmill runs at a 2.5% incline, which is my preference.
Now if you asked me now, 15 years later, at the age of 34, how long I could do it?
Considering I run a fraction of the milage I did at 19, lift weights and am at least 10lbs, maybe 15lbs heavier, I'd guess that I could still do a mile , maybe 2, but likely no more.

I don’t know exactly. I could run 6 flat pace for about 3-3.5 hrs on the road... so maybe 4 hrs on a treadmill (assuming 0.0 incline).
minimum 10k
Slow people like to ask these questions. Elites could hold the pace for 3 hours looking like an easy training run. It should be easier to lock in on a treadmill. Any good college runner could do 2 hours as their Sunday long run.
I did two hours at 10.4 on a treadmill, and was it a solid workout, but not really going to the well. If I got the room really cool and had bottles of Gatorade, maybe 3.5-4 hours?
On a treadmill? Probably 4 or 5 miles.
Outside? A little upwards of 10 miles.
Tuck Freadmills.
20 minutes MAX
I'm pretty dang slow
My gym limits everyone to 30 minutes on the treadmill, so 30 minutes.

That's pretty impressive. Are you sure you're an "800 dude"?
maybe more of a marathoner wrote:

Alas, not anymore. It's been a decade since I last danced the two-lap tango. It was a handle I used the first time I posted here when I was just getting into distance running, back in 2003 or so. I had been a 400/800 guy in high school. Now I'm definitely more of a marathoner, though I do occasionally bust out a decent kick.
I’m a D2 female runner. Our coach explicitly told us not to visit LetsRun forums.
