First female runner could soon break the 4-minute-mile barrier with ideal drafting and pacing.

With ideal conditions and strategic pacing and drafting, Kenyan Faith Kipyegon is on the brink of hitting the fabled track and field milestone, a new study suggests.

The authors are now calling for a staged 'Breaking 4' event to help her do it.

Kipp, now a postdoctoral researcher at the Mayo Clinic , stresses that their study, like many in the field, was based on previous studies that excluded women.

The authors hope that their paper will help spark more interest in studying the physiology of female athletes.

They recently sent a copy of the paper to Kipyegon , her coaches and her sponsors at Nike , floating the idea of another staged race.
