Yea that's my thought. If Shalane had the right shoes, that record would be down around 45:30.
And an even better athlete than Shalane (Kelati?) will take it down further, so whatever. If Lynn Jennings had Shalane's shoes, she would've run faster. Next generation innovations help make athletes better, not just shoes alone either.
