Triathlete Alex Yee runs 13:13 5km!

13:13.89 in a TRACK RACE!

Cannot wait hear the tri haters and the sub-elite excuses about this performance. Short 380 meter track? Carbon nano particle bicarb?

Well 13:13 used to be something, but now it is 48 seconds off the world record. But don’t get me wrong, I am impressed.

My bad. 38 seconds. It is very good.

13:13 is national class in all but like the top 10 distance running powerhouse countries in the world. It is a time that feels bad to call sub elite, but it isn’t necessarily elite. Very very good time, especially for a guy who isn’t a full on runner

Between this run, Hayden Wilde’s 27:39 road 10k earlier this year, and Morgan Pearson’s 61:01 half marathon, I don’t know what is the most impressive standalone run performance from a triathlete.

Perhaps Webb’s 3:46 mile still remains the best run result by a triathlete though ;)

Not a track race. If it's road, may not be accurate. I think he's legit track 13:25-13:30 though based in his previous 28:00 track.

Doubt he'd be capable of 13:13 on track. Not happening.

It Was A TRACK RACE, A Very Deep Track Race https://www.athletics.app/wedstrijd/uitslagen/42551/443562/#losonderdeel_78_

That's faster than Drew Hunter's lifetime PB

lol @ downvotes, what could your issue possibly be with this

I meant to downvote this.

Imagine running 13.13 and finishing 25th. And a guy who ran 13.16 finished 35th.

That sounds like a race between LetsRun posters, if the race consisted of listing your personal bests.

That’s kinda sad… Hunter needs to chase some fast times this summer/fall

He ran 2:11 in the heat of London this year. Not a surprise considering he is an olympic distance triathlete.

how many heats? Looks like a lot of competitors

Amazing! So many PBs in that race. Kasey Knevelbaard with a 13:04 PR at age 28... the old man ain't done yet!

Finished a tenth behind Sam Parsons

It's a bit strange that 90% of the field had a PB. Races were probably started from the wrong line.

The wonder vitamin works fine for everyone who has access to it.
