I accept the womens WR is about 30s quicker than it should be, although I think if Radcliffe had had the perfect race in her prime she could have done it....the Munich Euro champs race in better conditions for example.

I had my Vo2 max lab tested as 76 which is pretty high. This doesn't say anything about my economy though, which is pretty poor and consequently only have a 10k pb of 34:08 (although this is probably also due to a lack of 10ks).

You could have a massive VO2 but if you weigh 20 stone are never going to run a fast 10k!

You're right, it doesn't prove the limit of human ability.That limit can only be achieved with drugs!Besides if you really believed in what you're saying, you'd have to apply that to the womens 10000m, an event you've conceded was set withthe use of drugs.
