you know what: most runners go much slower on a machine. it's not a very motivating place to run. i'm one of the few people i know that is able to go a little faster, but i attribute that to the fact that the machine establishes the rhythm for me. i'm a hopeless white boy afflicted with a serious lack of rhythm. when i'm on the road, i have a harder time keeping a steady pace unless there are other runners present. but all the articles i've read say the opposite: faster on the road, slower on the treadmill.

Does the 6:21 mile come at the beginning or the end of the run?
Probably the beginning when I'm trying to get across the street.
Oh, so it's like an instantaneous rate, not a rate over a full mile. I get it.
I don't know if its me or not, but when I run on a machine I go so much slower than normal, am I crazy?
