This seems like a weak WR. Surely any sub-4 miler could job a 5:35 with a 40 pound backpack...?
def weak
No effing way that dude ran 5:35 with a 40 pound pack. I doubt he's run sub-5:30 carrying no weight.

7 hours 41 minutes to complete 26 miles with a 60 pound ruck?
I've done more than that in less time, so that HAS TO BE some sort of age group records sort of thing.
Maybe not as weak as you think:
Assuming a 4 minute miler weighed 140 pounds, his new mile time would be 4/(140/180)=5.14 min.
So it's not a terrible time or anything. 40 pounds is a lot, especially for guys who don't weigh much to start with.

you're assuming a lot more there than the weight of the miler...
No, you haven't. And if you'd bothered to read the article you would have seen that the guy's 45 and he did the marathon cross-country over muddy, icy fields.

"Not even the famous milers in history could do that with a 40-pound weight," Gould said. "He is an all-time great, and his name will always live on in the history of record breaking."
Wow.

Yep.
7 hours 10 minutes. 31 miles.
the rough conversion for intrinsic mile ability is to divide 5'35 by square root of masses
for different weight of guy
160 pounds ->5'00
150 pounds ->4'58
140 pounds ->4'56
i doubt he's better than a 5'00 miler
damn I could run that time carrying a 40 pound gut

ventolin, are you saying that all other things equal, 20 pounds will make only a 4 second difference? it has got to be more than that...
not sure where you got 4s for 20 pounds ?!
we are talking 5'35 carrying 40 pounds
if we try 5'35 carrying 20 pounds
160 guy -> 5'35 * ( 160/180 )^0.5 = 5'16
150 guy -> 5'35 * ( 150/170 )^0.5 = 5'15
140 guy -> 5'35 * ( 140/160 )^0.5 = 5'14
it's ~ 20s for a 20 pound pack
1886 one armed push ups in 1 hour.......that is the most impressive.

Thats roughly 1 every 2 seconds for an hour. No way he did that without breaking form. One armed pushups are easy to fake. Even with poor form they are very difficult, but there is no way he did 1886 strict-form OAPs.
hahaha hes so FAT
