I ALREADY WATCHED IT!
@@jmg- THANK YOU!!!!
I also Watched it 2 Times
I've watched it a couple times and will watch it more.
I ALREADY WATCH IT the video was good
**Two months later**
Nick : “ can I hit a sub 4 mile while driving my car?”
🤣🤣
Can I hit a sub 4 mile skydiving :D
@@nicksymmonds 😂😂😂
@PARKER HELLER r/whoosh
@@nicksymmonds That might take some training at elevation
Okay okay, Mile on the bike is great but you need to race the bike!
Maybe not on a track, but I've actually done this on trails! Just this past weekend I went back and forth with a few mountain bikers on a longer tempo section of my trail run where I could pass them on the uphills, and they would pass me on the downhills. Running can legitimately be faster on steep uphills and technical sections with rough terrain or sharp turns.
I second this
@@mikemcvea3900 common techniques in cyclocross where getting on and off is very often
^
God bless🥰
Its great how you didn't stop smiling once
lol this one was too much fun :D
that’s CRAZY how even with a bike he got 49 seconds for the first 400 while the record on foot is 43. Man Niekerk is really something!
*Van niekerk
@@cooperramos2700 commas, am I right
I mean, I ran a 48.5 in high school 😂
@@ZidaneSteiner nice lie
@@michaelw7327 It probably is not a lie. I ran a 53.7 400 in 8th grade
Do these people know how splits work? If his first split is 50 seconds how is he doing his second lap in 20 seconds
Yeah fr
Well better winning 100 then none. Might as well spread the choices out
@@jusunglee6673 Nah, but that’s way to much of a compensation, makes no sense at all...
Its how betting works. Notice how he made them change who bets first for each split. The last person to pick a time has the advantage because they dont need to guess perfectly they just pick one lower or one higher then the other players and they get a win for a large section of time. Say you pick 40 and another picks 41 and I should pick either 39 winning any time slower than 40 or 43 winning any time higher than 41.
Every time it showed you in slow-mo it genuinely looked like you were riding super slow
People guessing really didn’t know how to guess lol
26 second lap then a 52, he’s not going to half his speed in the 3rd lap lmao
@@rt9548 I don't think they know what splits are, but in fairness, you usually don't list your splits as total time, you list them by lap time...
i discovered your channel 3 days ago and now you are a motivation to start running again after 2 years 🎖💪. Greetings from Costa Rica!!
I managed a 3:41 on my bike a while back with my friends, it makes it so much crazier how fast some people can run
Already know it's gonna be a banger
Hope you like it!
@@nicksymmonds absolutely loved it
Ha! Fun to see you posting a video so soon after our interview together!
(Interview with Nick coming on my channel soon, sorry for the plug🤣)
Let's goooooo!!!! That's so exciting!
As I said, ALWAYS BE PLUGGING!!! No need to apologize :D
I'm hyped up!
This was awesome! I love how everyone guessed at least one split correctly.
Really love what your doing man! Getting people moving!

I love how their first lap they all guessed slower than Nick’s guess then casually decided to all be faster from there on out 🤣
Nick only puts out bangers!!
I'm glad you finally did it
I don't know why but I just love to watch your fun with fitness.😁
I was about to say, ofc you could bike a sub 4 mile.
Hello Nick:) great to see you again:) greetings from Sardinia, Italy.
Me doing cross training when I'm injured:
Love these wholesome videos 📹
would be rly interesting to see you break four by biking first 900 meters and running the rest
Another awesome vid
Dude you the best nick
I love when you say full send!
Dangggggg that’s a nice mountain bike! Santa cruzsss are the best and my dream bike.
They're really nice bikes, but they're honestly really overpriced. Unless you can drop like $8000 on the top end, you won't get good components. I'd really suggest looking at other brands, especially some of the direct to consumer brands like Canyon, Vitus, Diamondback, Commencal, Nukeproof, etc. I've ridden quite a few of those, and they're incredible! And you pretty much always get higher end components for the same price as a comparable SC bike.
@@evanbarnes9984 yeah I know 😅 I got a specialized a couple months ago for a killer sale
Seconding a great idea from below. Love to see bike 800 meters, jump off and run rest to see if you break the 4 min mile.
love your content! I am born and raised in salem oregon and am in bush park all the time
I loved this video
This was legit so fun to watch
No one finished yet but it will be a fun video.
This one was crazy fun :D
Not to flex but I suggested this in the comments of the roller skate video. Super excited to see this now
“Can my baby run a sub 4 minute mile”
Nick recently started watching ur video nd loved it... love from india 🤗
I love mountain biking!
Sick bike dude!
Great fan of yours love all videos
Love from India🇮🇳
YAY NICK!!
track cyclist 🙋♂️
in pursuits sometimes riders drift out right to help them get a better turn going into the bend. So: don’t necessarily need to work on tighter turns. Whatever works best for ya.
Fun video to watch, nice one Bison 💪
I always wanted to run with this man!
Sheesh nice bike nick. Santa Cruz fancy
Ima start working for run gum😏
Hey Nick I have no idea if you saw my CZcams comment about tag but thanks for making the video either way. Recently someone on /r/BMX averaged over 15 for 7 miles or something on a 20 inch wheel bike with small cranks. I did just over 4 for a mile on a big wheel but it's on the hilly route I train mile run repeats on.
Mad respect for trying that on a full squish
tip: it is wayyyyyyy easier to go really fast around the outer lane. Or a racing line (like in formula 1 or karting)
Videos are awesome
This is so cool!
Was a ton of fun to shoot!!
Epic!
love your videos
Thank you for watching them!
i love your videos
Wohooo about time you uploaded Nick Symmonds
Been 8 days already!!!!
@@nicksymmonds classes be having me asleep man
Love to see you compete in a Hyrox event! It's a short distance run heavy endurance event that doesn't require any heavy lifting. Basically an hour and a half workout competition.
Banger
Thank you!!
That is a really good mountain bike there, it is a santacruz frame with fox suspensions on it
Great ending
yes!
nice idea
Awesome sub 4 on the the Bike 👍
Im an older 55 year amateur runner with a mile pb of 6:32
Great idea for the mile challenge
Im going to give it a go
Only chance ill ever get go sub 4 on the track
😂😂
that bose commercial was so smooth and effortless
Always going to get new content on this channel...❤️❤️
I’m guessing that’s an 18 speed mountain bike, great work Nick!! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Scuse me what
This is clean, good CZcams content. Not that David Dobrik monster
1:18 "where she almost killed me in a go kart"
"so close"
ohhmann amazing
My pb for this is 2:45s. But it was for 1600m and a more flying start. It also was on an asphalt track.
I was hoping to see Nick bunny hop over some hurdles 😂
You got a sub 3 on a road bike with clips for sure
on pavement on a proper road bike with great conditions. Could easily do 2:40 or quicker if he is in shape.
Nice wheelie
I was at walmart the other day and i dont know y i got so hyped when i saw run gum there lol
I always get hyped to see it on store shelves!!
Love from Guyana
I need to try this challenge this summer
MTB bikes are the best. Hope u meet ur goal
I never thougth of a bike on tracks before this is funny to whatch. 🤣🤣🤣
Good idea Nick. I should try this one, I think I finally found something I can beat u at. Sub 3 minute mile here I come😂
Imagine cycling 4000m in 4:01"934 like Filippo Ganna
495 watt FTP. He’s the TT goat
He averaged 600w for 4 minutes in the TT position, he is a beast
I met the CFO of Bose ...really cool guy
Unfortunately, didn't get any free stuff
😢
yeah! 👍
You should try a 4 minute mile on a fat tire bike with an aggressive 4.5 inch knobby tire with under 10 psi . I averaged 100 miles a week this winter with this set up on my Trek Farley. A 4 minute mile is tough even on good roads, not to mention snow, wind , and cold.
I can't quite tell if he locked the suspension out, but it definitely would have helped reduce power loss, especially when out of the saddle. Possibly could have the saddle a few mm higher to get the most power out of the legs. But I don't want to be one of those people who nit pick everything, so otherwise great lol.
Hey Nick! You said you'd talk about the daunting experience of get tested for doping. When's that coming out?
This is a XC bike. Yes it works in the mountains, but if he raced a stumpjumper or a megatower it would be crazy. This is still gas ⛽
Can we take a moment to consider this is only 44 seconds faster than the world record? says something about just how amazing the record holder is
No it just shows how bad he is at cycling. And how bad you are at math
@@q12aw50 LOL
6:29 proof that the earth is round
That intro song slapped
Hey Nick when exactly are you supposed to be coming to Texas? You said it would be March and the month is almost over with already...
I don't see why not, Even I can do that on a MTB lol. Probably not a 3:08 but I do average fast enough on the way to school to easily do a 4min mile even with the slope .
But I do have a better bike for that since the linkage design eliminates pedal bob .
How big is your chainring anyway?
I wonder if you would have taken the straights in lane 8 to take the turns more tangent if it would’ve helped or not
Hey dude. Will run gum be available in Canada at any point? Would like to try it out.
So funny and cool
I don't know what's crazier, how slow you did it on a bike, or how quick you ran it back in the day
Omg I know I could have done it 3:00 TOPS
One day later: can a hover board get a sub 4 minute mile
You know what you should try? Jump over a shark with a jet ski - sub-4:00!
Now do this on a superlight road bike haha
Hi Nick , will you deliver run gum to the UK?
Awesome video as always 😀👍🏿
Thank you!!
My personal best on the mountain bike mile is 3:16 around a loop at a park near my house
Nice riding!!
The Bison rides a Bike 🦬 🚲
1:40 My guesses for the split (1/4 mile a time): 0:49 / 1:29 / 2:18 / 3:09 finish
0:00 (dead on) / +7 sec real / +4 sec real / -1 sec off finishing time
