Hard to believe anyone could run a 4:15 mile and be conditioned to run an ultra marathon.
Extreme long distance training makes you slower.

There is the occasional freak who can do both well, but they are usually very light with abnormally long legs.
Such a person would never parallel squat 700lbs.
