The results of this study demonstrate for the first time that exercise both with and without the influence of opponents influences time perception. This finding has important implications for healthy exercise choices and also for optimal performance. Independent of RPE, time was perceived to move slower during exercise, underpinning inaccurate pacing and decision-making across physical activities.
“When a man sits with a pretty girl for an hour, it seems like a minute. But let him sit on a hot stove for a minute—and it's longer than any hour. That's relativity”
Basically saying that when you're not looking at your data every second, you tend to underestimate how long you've been at it, especially if you've been having a good training day
Or, as I call it "The 'We're Done Already?' Effect"
It also points that with the addition of the "pace-lights" on the track "several long-standing track running world records have recently been broken, such as the men's 10,000 m (15-year-old record; broken in 2020) and the women's 5000 m (12-year-old record; broken in 2020)"
