Last I checked, 5 miles does not equal 10km. I may have missed a memo about this "fact."

Rupp is a hell of a marathon runner(closing a 2:09.20 race with a last 10k of 28:30 is incredible and very few if any outside of Kipchoge has that ability)

These are all facts. Now please shut up.

He got the win by ripping off five straight sub-4:40 miles for miles 22 (4:39), 23 (4:35), 24 (4:30), 25 (4:34), and 26 (4:33) to decimate the five-man lead pack[/[quote]
Those last 5 miles average 4:34 pace which is 28:23 pace for 10k(sub-2 marathon pace)
