      Dave Moorcroft's race was OUTDOORS. Running Indoors Vs Outdoors is completely different. ie Indoor track is banked, the "boards" provide a different bounce, no headwinds, the heat temperature is different and so on) The title of this should have said "Grant Fisher shatters American INDOOR record". This is not the outdoor record which is slightly faster.

      In Jr high we would have two 10 minute runs a year in gym class and I think it took something like 26 or 27 laps to make a mile. Every run my goal was to hit at least 50 laps and my first 3 I was always around 53-55 laps. For my last one.. I wanted to be the first one at my school to hit 60 laps.. so that meant getting 6 laps every minute and I will tell you right now.. you need to be going all out every minute to hit 6 laps every single time. I ended up getting 62 on that last one and I about died after lol
