While its fun relating our experiences running as Giants we want data to share with the rest of the community. There was a study from the 80's (mentioned in an earlier post) that said a 210 pound runner running an 8 minute pace is performing as well as a 150 lb runner doing a 6 minute mile. Well let's test it. What is it like for a 230 lb runner to do an 8 minute mile? (I can pull one or two off occasionally). Let's test the ground impact for both heel striking Giants and barefoot style runners like me. I like Hammer Nutrition's sports drinks but all their mixture info ends at 190 lbs.
Surely out there is a student or professor who would have interest in studying this. Maybe Hammer? Anybody?
