That's 5 minute mile pace you understand? Seriously fast - like national standard.

No offence but I think you have got your numbers mixed up.

Looking at your PB's, it would be virtually impossible for you to run 20 miles mostly uphill in 1 hour 40 minutes. Maybe you meant 20k?

That is NOT POSSIBLE! You would have been at the European champs in the marathon if you are that good.
Get a pedometer, bet you ran less than 20k,

You should be running sub 14 for 5k.

I'm impressed, to maintain a pace considerably (and by considerably I mean an awful lot!) faster than your best over 5k, and probably faster than you can run a single mile for 20 miles.

Wish I could record work-outs like that!

Am I right in thinking a sliiiiiiight mistake might've been made? Still, doing long runs up hills is something to be proud of..

It is, and reading back my post is probably a little too caustic if it's a genuine runner!

As a low 33 10k runner though, I've done 17 miles in just under 1:40 which was working moderately though not overly hard. This chap is saying he's done 20 with a 5k PB that's closer to my 10k than my 5k!

Good on him though for getting out there and running for that length of time-maximum I'd say he'd have run probably just over 10 miles- maybe 1 or 2 more.
