Would the female equivalent of this be sub-4:30 milers? (There is no study about women.)

Yesterday was the first time I’ve played #games with my wife, and we’ve been married for almost 9 years and we know each other for over 12. We started with #CapcomVsMarvel, did some #MetalSlug and #TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles, but we had the most fun and laughs with old #NES #TrackAndField!🥰

“Records are falling and times are dropping. Is it the shoes, or something else?”
"It’s easy to make an anecdotal case that #runners are faster than ever. Backing that up with data isn’t quite as straightforward”
“It does seem like there’s something going on, both on the track and on the roads”
"Is there something new on the scene over the last few years?” 🤔

firefly, 11 months ago to Stockholm

I left all my beloved track and field fans and friends behind and I migrated here from Twitter in January. Anyone out here interested in #trackandfield or #athletics (in the European sense)? I’m excited for the #Stockholm Diamond League meet today, and the USA championships in Eugene this week!

Good on her! The Belgian team, devastated by injuries, needed to earn the points for competing in the race that would hopefully stop them from being relegated to a lower division. #sport #athletics #TrackAndField #Belgium #JolienBoumkwo

"Belgium shot put and hammer throw champion Jolien Boumkwo showed her team spirit at the European Championships in Poland when she stepped up to run the 100m hurdles and save her team from getting disqualified.

Boumkwo smiled as she carefully attempted each hurdle on Saturday. The 29-year-old finished the race without knocking any of the hurdles down in 32.81 seconds. That was 19 seconds after the winner, Teresa Errandonea of Spain."
