Th ING New York Marathon takes place on Sunday, November 3 and ASICS created an interactive way for fans to see what it might be like to run in the shoes of America’s fastest marathoner. As the fastest American male marathoner, Ryan Hall runs an average of 4:46 a mile. ASICS custom-built a treadmill to run at Ryan’s exact speed for The Treadmill Challenge. The treadmill was placed on the back of a truck and participants are harnessed in for safety. Once the timer starts it’s go time!
How long do you think you could keep Ryan’s pace? Keep in mind this is his pace for 26.2 miles. This is a great idea from ASICS!
Good luck to all who are running in the event. Learn more about the marathon at ingnycmarathon.org and visit ASICS America for more on their NY Marathon coverage
