Can you run as fast as kipchoge, for 400m?

That was not long after running a flat out mile, and also a 14 second 100m. So I suspect if rested I could have shaved a second or two off, probably not quite fast enough for a 68 second 400m though.

But we did 2 sets, trying different formations in each set. We had a small food break between sets too, so it was much more managable! The technical team gave us a talk first about the theory behind it all, how they used math and wind tunnels to test the formations before we tried them, and why the previous attempt (the Nike one) failed.
