nice video of Haile G. on the treadmill, cranking out 4-min miles… beautiful to watch.
That is the only time I could ever keep up with him at the track – As long as he never gets off the treadmill.
t
unfreakin real…anyone know how much ground he covers with 1 stride? I’m lazy so I wont do the calculation myself.
Thanks for sharing. He seems like an incredibly likeable guy and I really enjoy watching him run. I have several friends that run professionally that have hung out with him and they say that he is one of the nicest people to be around.
Thats nuts. I find it interesting that he says that he runs on a treadmill 5 or 6 times a week. If he does it, there can’t be any shame in it.
He makes it look easy.

That ain’t your ordinary treadmill. 4min/mile is 15 miles per hour.
I’m sure you have all seen it, but just in case you haven’t, there was a piece done by cnn on Haile covering his first record breaking marathon run. It went into a bit about his youth and where he grew up, and he took the journalist around the town he was from. You can find it in 3 parts on youtube. Great stuff.
that’s awesome. his running form is beautiful to watch…i love how he throws up his arms and is goofing around. Seems like a really nice guy.
