My boss is a Crossfit guy. He says he does 10 miles in 60 minutes when he runs. I know he is lying. Should I call him out?

That's Great! Thanks for Posting!

Yes he is lying. Would be great to catch him, but he won’t agree to do the run. Will come up with the excuse. 6 minute miling for an hour is another planet of fitness for 99.9% of population.

Yes. Definitely. Tell him (in front of others!) that you should run together because 10 miles in an hour is your pace too, "any time this week." Watch him claim injury or a busy schedule. And then get a new trainer. That guy is full of it.

Don't you dare call me. Go watch Saltburn

I’m not surprised you work in telemarketing.

hes prolly just shooting the sht brah ever heard of it?

60 minutes, 65 minutes, who cares?

Maybe you are much faster than him, go in to work and tell everybody that you run a 59 minute 10 mile instead.

I would just let it go. No one really cares. You’re at work to just do a job

if you called him out he would just pull a Jerry Seinfeld "I chose not to run"

Ask him what he benches for max then tell him you'll give him $500 to bench that weight that afternoon in front of you.

Most workplaces its nearing time for the annual pay review so No.

1 mile in 6:00

1 mile in 7:45

4 miles in 9:00

= 6 miles

I.e., that would not be the same as "he gives up at 5."

Just sayin'

Are you sure he is "lying"? He may have no idea what he's saying. Maybe he really believes he can do it because he did a little under-measured cross fit "mile" run in 5 minutes. I've found that many clueless people over estimate the distance they've covered while walking around the house/mall/vacation destination/etc.

Basically any guy and a lot of women who ran in college at any level could do 10 miles in 60 minutes. You have no idea about his natural talent or running background. I would assume if I walked by and you asked a random person off the street if they thought I could run 10 miles in 60 minutes they would of course say no. But that would be pretty easy for me as I’ve done a HM at 5:35 pace.

what are you even talking about? since when does running in college mean you are still a decent runner 10+ years later by default? idk the figures but if you go up and ask random people on a random street in the middle of the day then you are probably gonna have to ask about 400 people before 1 person who actually knows what they're talking about says that they can run it.
also why did you feel the need to add on the HM pace? your half marathon pace would be pretty easy for me to do for a marathon

Maybe he's not that good at math.

You're giving him too much credit.

He probably doesn't know the treadmill at his "box" is set to km instead of miles or something retarded like that.

CrossFit is a cult. It is Scientology for the physically fit. Wait until he is deprogrammed.
