This is like saying that every novice who joins a power lifting club can easily press 60kg as a warmup. That's completely true, but also completely irrelevant because of a selection bias. A novice power lifter is already going to generally be in the top fraction of a percent of all people in terms of strength and lifting ability.

I'm not at all into running but I suspect it's the exact same scenario. It's just a selection bias. And also like running, genetics plays heavily into it.
