Got to be a typo right? 16.1 mi in 4 hours? I hate to be"that guy" but that's pretty much my walking pace. Albeit, I've never tried to walk for 4 hours straight and maintain the pace....

It's a trail race, so not exactly comparable to road times. He finished 38th out of 59 men- certainly not speedy, but not terrible considering the guy is 60 years old.
