It depends whether you run east to west or west to east. Time travel is always relative to timezones. That's where the advice not to leave zone 2 comes from originally.
It's actually pretty much a fantasy for every middle-aged runner. My running isn't a distraction from work and family -- no, I'm out there earning $5000/hour!
I love the idea of finding out little Jane needs braces, the baby has a cough, the car needs new tires, etc. so I (Dad) put on my running tights, Ciele hat and headlamp, then head out into a dark, snowy night to support the family.
Don’t be such a jerk, not everyone is an elite athlete throwing down sub 12 minute miles. We all can’t be putting down sub 40min 5k ultras like the pros.
A 12 minute one mile ultra is basically impossible without investing $1100 in vaporflys and Gu, so obviously if you don’t want to lose money you take the upfront 500k and invest it in AI.
Does that happen? I might need to check with my wife's boyfriend if they are fucking (especially as I saw them naked and sweaty) but he said they were just massaging each other. So maybe check with your wife's boyfriend. It may just be a misunderstanding.
While 3 miles a day is a good plan, you'll get up to far higher mileage with periodisation and rest days. You could quite comfortably only run 3 days a week and hit the same mileage. Or do 5 days with down weeks and hit much higher figures.
My current training plan is a 6 month build and will see me completing around 1,200 miles... and I'm doing that with a full time job and a toddler.
I'd take the latter even if it was 7 minute miles. Even if someone can't do a 7 minute mile today, with enough training, it's achievable for anyone. Run a 7 minute mile per day and you got yourself a $365k job. If you run a 7 minute mile every day, you will get to a fitness level where you can do multiple 7 min miles per day easily. Sign me up! So... where do I start collecting these checks?
Lmao. A 12 min mile would feel like walking to me and considering I've run 4,933 miles just this year all under 12 mins a mile. I would have 4.9 mil just this year. Easy choice
It's a trick question obviously, running a mile in less than 12 minutes is far too fast and you'd probably die soon after from over exertion.
I ran under 12 mins once and my wife left me for her boyfriend
Probably married that guy and got a new faster boyfriend. Everyone shifted over one position
It’s not because you were under 12min, it’s because you left zone 2.
My apologies that’s correct. That run left long term neurological damage.
Last time I ran a 12min mile there was a flash and I got transported 100 years into the past.
Funny. I did that and got transported into future
I ran a mile recently and got transported about ten minutes into the future. Not very fit. Was also sweaty, weird.

Mother fucker this was funny
$1000 wouldn't cover the medical bill I'd have after attempting a 12 minute mile
SLOW DOWN ROGER BANNISTER!!
🤣🤣🤣
Obvious.

Damn. Kinda insane how unfit the general population is
Okay Eliud
They should start offering these for anyone who can run a mile in less than 12 mins.

Even a single dollar would be nice, would pay for shoes at least

Nah fr this comment section is scaring me
$1000, and that mile will be the rest of my life

That would be great! strava athlete intelligence does have a couple things it could improve on. Thank you for your philanthropy!
Fuck, that'd be like $3,100 every marathon.
Running that fast obviously isn't possible for anyone but the elitest of the elite, so obvs going with the $500k.
See you at my next 5k ultra where I try to break sub-15 minute mile average pace!
These pro contracts are getting out of control
$500k, my shins and my life thank you very much

Good thing you didn’t turn around.

£1000 for a 12 minute heart attack Jesus
$500k or having to leave Zone 2?
Oh here we go, someone hiding behind a question just to flex there per mile pace……AGAIN
Unlimited money printer
Husband: Ha ha….drinks on me tonight….I’m gonna run.
Wife: Run to the ATM?
Husband: running is the ATM.
$1000 is far too little for Exploded Shin Surgery in this country
I’m accepting this deal but never running up hill again
500k, I need that money to pay off student loans, buy a decent new car and have a nice chunk for a house.

Plantar Fasciitis out here making people homeless
Considering the 12 minute mile wasn’t cracked until 1930, this is pretty dangerous
I'd do that and just get Kipchoge to mule for me for $500 per mile.
C'mon people, it's like you're not even thinking like capitalists.
Do I have to pay taxes on this money?
1000 no sweat. Making about 4k a day I workout casually lol
The best part is you wouldn’t even have to leave zone 2!
i know its fake, but just think how fit you would become with this incentive. Ultra runner extraodinare.
The runny money. I'd be ahead in less than a year with zero change to my routine.
As a runner, serious question: if I run 6 miles in an hour (faster pace for each mile), is that one time ($1000) or 6 ($6000)?
Former, sold - I’ll hit it in a year, and after that it’s all gravy. Latter, I’ll take the $500k and invest it and make more money.
Back that Brinks truck up!
Run 2 miles a day for 10 years and get 7.3 million by the end
I guess I'm waking up and running 1 mile every day moving forward when this deal is offered.
Go walk at the gym and you’d be able to buy it by the end of the day
God I would turn into an ultra runner so fast
Definitely the latter. Gonna clean up with all my 5k Ultras booooooooi!!!!
I'll only have to run for 10 years and I've made my money, this is a no brainer.
