Two athletes, age 38, ran continuously for periods ranging from 60 to 165 min on a motor- driven treadmill at 255.7 m/min while confronted with an airflow equivalent to running speed in cool, moderate, and hot environments as part of their preparation for the Tokyo 2021 Olympic games . From the information given on Fig 2, which athlete, A or B, would be more likely to complete the marathon race? Use information from the graph to explain your answer.
