How many meters elevation does Harvard ivy League University have? I didn't know it can produce championship runners like this.

As it real good college as many smart people go there and as many smart people go similar skools as bush roommate (dad) send them there
39ft

It took you 3 times as long to write this post as it would have for you to look it up yourself

I'm not very smart but I do know Harvard is right on the Charles river with no excessive river banks and which is flowing to the ocean (pretty much by definition sea level) about 4 miles downstream so 20-30 feet seems about right.
I worked on the Big Dig for about a decade. No real progress other than increase the altitude by a meter or so in some areas, and reducing it to below sea level at some points in other areas. Not much else to add.
Google can answer this for you, but sure, lets post this on lets run...
Altitude is overrated. A lot of people who are already fast move to altitude and remain fast. If they did not move to altitude, they would still be fast. You don't need to be at altitude to run fast, like Graham Blanks. Justyn Knight was another champ not at altitude, Eugene is not at altitude with Ches, Morgan McDonald at Wisconsin not at altitude, Charles Hicks at Stanford not at altitude. Patrick TIernan villanova not at altitude. Edwin Kurgat while at Iowa State, not at altitude. Kenedy Kithuka training at Texas Tech not at altitude. In the past decade only Conner Mantz went to a university at altitude. If someoen says "East Africans are at altitude and they run fast". Well take them away from the altitude and they are still fast, they more so have a generational adaptation due to a very very very long ancestral line of people being at altitude.

Yeah I came here to say something along these lines. People can be responders to altitude and for some people it doesn't quite work. If you're not able to recover or get quality workouts in when at altitude, it's probably hindering your progress more than it's helping. Emily Sisson for example is our best women marathoner to date and she does her training in Rhode Island because she is constantly tired at altitude. That can't be an easy decision to make if a lot of your competitors are training at altitude and you're not, but you have to listen to your body.
Pretty flat right near Harvard. Have to go a ways to get to any hills
