IIRC when Michael Johnson obliterated the 200m record in 1996, it was something like 30 mph, but I am not positive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just curious. 100 m = 0.0621 miles, so if he was able to keep the pace up for an entire mile (unrealistic), that would be a mile in 157.33 seconds = almost a 2.5 minute mile (again, unrealistic). MPH-wise, that is 22.88 MPH. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
