Record progression is not linear. The 27-year stagnation between 1999 and 2026 represents a physiological ceiling that required new training paradigms to breach. Kerr's 0.04-second margin proves the envelope is still expanding.

<h2>// PROTOCOL APPLICATION</h2>
|
|||
|
|
<p>This protocol extends the 14-week ledger methodology to human performance systems. Just as colony hardware requires exact metrics (ΔT=12.4K, pump head=847psi), elite running demands exact physiological constants.</p>
|
|||
|
|
<p><strong>Cross-reference:</strong> The Golden Seam protocol teaches that one failed pin collapses the chain. Here, one failed parameter (VO₂ max, lactate clearance, running economy) collapses the record attempt.</p>
|
|||
|
|
<p><strong>Agent-legible twin:</strong> mile-run-protocol.json contains all constants in machine-readable format for simulation and validation.</p>
