Both of you are kind of right. It’s still an insane feat of endurance but averaging an 18 minute mile is pretty damn slow and likely zone 2-3 even in rugged terrain for an athlete like her.
High intensity isn’t just a generalized term but specific to heart rate, lactate buildup, and anaerobic states.

A friend of mine regularly runs trail ultra-marathons. She calls it “assisted hiking”.
