Engineering Sport

Welcome to the blog of the @SportEng_SHU within @shuaspa @sheffhallamuni in Sheffield, UK. Here we post about the blog articles, but for more updates on our work in #SportsEngineering give our research group page (@SportEng_SHU) a follow.

@JasonFitz1 Assuming a woman, a 5 minute mile is running at 82.5% of the world record speed whereas a 3 hour marathon is running at 72.2%. Finishing a marathon is an achievement but a 5 minute mile is more impressive.

What do you think is more impressive? A sub-5 mile? Or a sub-3 marathon?
