I Tried Beating Gerda Steyn’s 3:43 km Pace… Here’s What Happened 😳

I set out to test just how fast elite marathon runners really are by attempting to match Gerda Steyn’s incredible 3:43/km pace from her Two Oceans Marathon victory. Filmed at Bronberrik Park in Centurion, I used a hat-mounted DJI action camera for full POV immersion and my DJI Neo 2 drone for cinematic tracking shots to capture the entire effort. The goal? Run 1km at that exact pace. The result? Let’s just say… I came close, but not quite close enough. This video gives you a real-world look at what it actually feels like to run at elite pace, combining raw effort with smooth aerial footage. If you’ve ever wondered how fast the pros really are — this puts it into perspective. 👍 If you enjoy running challenges, POV workouts, and drone footage, don’t forget to like and subscribe. #RunningChallenge #GerdaSteyn #1KMChallenge #DJIDrone #RunningVlog #POVRun #TwoOceansMarathon
