Camille Herron has just broke the 300k world record in 48 hour race in Australia

Will she take a few days off?

Well coached Conor ,keep her going.

And if you can coach a fat old man give me a shout.

Nah just some random who went out to the event you can check out all 1070'ish lap splits as well. Longest break in 48 hours looks to be around 40 minutes.

She is hammering home with each 400m's getting faster looks like 270 miles is the goal. It will be close!

If she closes in 60 seconds for her last 400m they need to drug test her.

270 done with 3 mins to spare.

welp that was 2 minute ago and it took me a minute to type this so is she done?

Yep she went for her long run....which happen to be 270 miles or 435k or 1088 laps of the track. A long ways no matter how you look at it. An impressive feat.

This is a pretty astonishing performance. That's ten marathons worth in two days and another eight miler on top of that.

I read on here that your long run shouldn't be too big a fraction of your weekly mileage. What should she do to balance out the week? A few hundred miles of tempo?

Athleticism or mentally freakish? Or a combination of the two? Has she ever run faster than the current trials standard in any event?

Well time to delete the old "marathon on a track" thread. I can't imagine circling a 400m track for 48 hours at any speed.

What if you did this and got DQ'd at the last minute for stepping inside the line?

Of course the slobs on here can do ultra running. Anyone who doesn’t train can do these things. It’s just jog-walking.

This is a dumb, arrogant take. You are not good at thinking about the implications of your statement. Is triathlon "an event you gravitate to if you cannot make it as a competitive runner?" What about basketball? Is distance running what slow people do once they realize they can't sprint? What's the difference?

Not everyone is cut out to run sub-13 in the 5000m (men) or sub-14:30 (women). That doesn't mean they aren't cut out to be runners or athletes. They just have different events or different sports based on what they are dominant at.

Your lack of interest or respect doesn't matter to them. They aren't doing it for your approval. Michael Phelps couldn't have played in the NBA, but that doesn't mean he was a bad athlete (which is your logic).

What do you mean by a false flag in this case? Why would her Husband deliberately try to confuse her (or us)?

I think the hubris in this statement is borderline record setting for this forum. People say dumb things and mean things here all the time but the idea that you, a common schmo runner, think you could beat Camille Herron at a 100 or 200 miler is just idiotic.

You don't have the mental abilities to run for 200 miles and you don't have the weird, genetic traits that these kind of ultra runners have. You would just get tired (at any pace) after like 4, 5, or 6 hours. You (I mean you specifically) can't just go out the door and run 7:30 pace for 24 hours. You don't have what it takes (physically) and you'll never try because you don't have the right mindset (too weak).

Yes, just listen to a woman nagging her husband. You can tell she has endurance for days.

I have an opinion. You have an opinion. But you are so insecure that you have to engage in ad hominem attacks. Just try to refute my opinion. It doesn’t matter if we disagree. I will not subscribe to your adoption of groupthink.

A “common schmo runner?” You have no idea who you are addressing. It is absurd that you think someone such as myself, who could at his best run a minimum of 50K at Camille’s 5K race pace, would have no chance to beat her. Know your place.
