💨 Abstract

Faith Kipyegon fell short of running the mile in under 4 minutes during a Nike-sponsored event in Paris despite being the fastest woman in this event. Some key moments in the evolution of the men's and women's mile include Roger Bannister's sub-4-minute mile in 1954 and Hicham El Guerrouj's record-setting 3:43.13 in 1999.
