(Reuters/Dominic Ebenbichler) Humans could perhaps run as fast 40 mph, a new study suggests. Such a feat would leave in the dust the world's fastest runner, Usain Bolt, who has clocked nearly 28 mph in the 100-meter sprint. The new findings come after researchers took a new look at the factors that limit human speed. Their conclusions?
In 1983 Mike Boit of Kenya ran a mile in 3:28.36. As far as I know, no one has ever covered the distance faster. This was on a downhill road course so it isn't recognized by IAAF but it's still the fastest mile ever run by a human. The world record in the mile run is the best mark set by a male or female runner in the middle-distance track and field event.
