I did my first MC run not long after hitting 60 (mistake as I didn't have good enough gear) but it was long! Over 6 hours in there - I was exhausted...
AS a guild we're about to venture in their for the first time this Saturday... fingers are crossed! After frequent visits to Zul Gurub though I fully expect the bosses to be a lot easier - a lot less tactics are required - just twice as many people!
Liz - Runetotem. Our guild usually does a whole MC run over the course of a week, 3 or 4 bosses per raid. Sounds like your fella's guild does the whole run in one go. :)
Once you get the instance down, you should be able to clear the whole thing in under four hours. It will take several weeks of getting each boss down first though.
My guild started running MC in August, and we arrived at full clear in under four hours status in early November.
I hate to say it, but I find MC terribly boring now after a few months of running it. Unfortunately, it's a treadmill you can't get off due to the constant influx of new people, and the few rare drops that people need. (and the Tier 2 pants off my buddy Rags.)

Only four hours? My finacee has to block out entire days in his schedule for his 40+ person guild! Which server do you play on?
