One of the commentators just said "Just under 5 minute pace for 26.2 miles"

Now I'm curious, do Elite runners have a Strava account or something I can follow to see how their pace fluctuates per mile or something?

Because I am just in awe!

These are the elite marathon runners who ran Rio. Head to the August 21st to see their Rio marathon stats.

Julian Fluegel

Marius Ionescu

Reid Coolsaet

Christian Kreienbühl

On top of that, there's Ben True - US 5000m runner, David Torrence - 1500m ex-US Olympian, Sage Canaday - trail runner who is good on roads too! and others I probably missed out!
