    What's the fastest anyone has ever run one mile?

    Question #94577. Asked by billythebrit. (Apr 13 08 2:21 PM)

    The current world record is held by Hicham El Guerrouj of Morocco set on July 7th 1999 in Rome. His time was 3:43:13. Of course being able to measure time so accuratly in racing has only come about in the last 50 years or so. It could be possible that someone in ancient times was faster.
