2:21:40 - Tread Mill Record, Eric Blake 2006
2:22:00 - 2008 Olympic Trails Qualifier Men’s “B” Standard
------------------------------
Did the guy who set the treadmill record qualify for the trials?
Back in 2006, Rolf Aldag, recently more famous confessed doper ran 2:42:57 in Hamburg. He was a professional cyclist for Deutche Telekom/T-Mobile.
Your "updated" list does not even contain the person mentioned directly above it who ran one of the fastest times on the list, 3:17, and is also the hottest one on the list

Ah, I doubt it. i dont think USATF takes treadmill times. I could be wrong but i think it has to be a certified road race. even though the treadmill was calibrated and all i dont think they would take it. If they did... think how many guys would try as a last chance attempt?
Ali Landry is way slower but way hotter than Summer Sanders. Google 'em, like I did, and see for yourself.
Dan Jansen NYC 1996 3:32:01
I'll take summer over Ali any day. Maybe if Ali laid off the Doritos she might have broken 5 hours, Summer could swim that fast.

Ali was running with then boyfriend Mario Lopez. Note their times.
I think he held her back.

Dick and Rick Hoyt: 2:40:47
Mike Huckabee's best time was faster. He ran a 4:37:34 at the MCM in 2005.
Nope he was outside the qualifying window, bad logistics on his part.
I like having this list but I think listing Rosie Ruiz is not a good thing. She is getting more exposure for not running more the 1K.
i'd tear summer sanders up. to the guy who said she isn't that hot, you're an idiot.
I'm trying to hunt down the fastest marathon times from an ironman event. I think Lothar Leder or Luke Van Leder(?) went sub six pace in Roth one year. And I'm certain Newby-Fraser went sub-3 and I don't think she's the fastest anymore. Any tri people out there in the know?

Nell McAndrew is faster and more attractive than either of them. 3:10 London Marathon--see page 4 of the thread.

Wow...I didn't know they ran that fast. They get my vote for the most impressive time on the list. Incredible feat.
