It looks like the running pacers started to lag increasingly behind the pacing car after about 1.48 running time, also keeping Eliud back then. Perhaps if the front pacers had kept a perfect 2.00 schedule and had kept up with the car he could have followed them?
We have all sinned and fallen short of Gods glory and we all deserve hell but Jesus Christ Gods perfect sent son died on a cross so we don’t have to go there and we can now be saved by grace through our faith in him
This is all very cool and fun to watch, but at the end of the day, the whole thing is about humanity’s round-figure bias: we think there is something special about crossing 2 hours flat compared to say 2:00:13 or 1:59:27.
@@jonm3024 True, but our round-figure bias is central for generating mass enthusiasm, for example, no one would care anywhere near as much about say a “1:58” project at this point.
@@aroundandround Right... I wasn't denying the existance of the bias, just pointing out that it is often used to our advantage... For example: it might not be as motivating to say "we're trying to break 1:58" as to say "we're trying to break the record by 2 full seconds". The way you phrase things has an impact on how you motivate... and there is nothing wrong with phrasing things in a way that motivates us towards advancement IMO. If using the round figure bias gets us to improve more rapidly, great!
@@loremipsum6484 I sometimes set my alarm to random minutes past the hour. Also the reason most people don’t is for the convenience of having to press fewer buttons and thinking of the day in terms of hours or half hours. But we count marathon time in seconds, not hours.
I'm glad this was finally done. It was very difficult with no wind, and no curves, and pacers the entire time and handed water and the most advance shoes ever. I'm baffled 🤦
