Burke - do you have notes on the Mongolian runner, Batochir - a perennial participant in events like the Worlds and Olympics. I don;t think he trains in Mongolia. Mongolia's capital, Ulan Bator, is known to be the coldest capital on earth, and it is windy most of the time.

that sucks
batochir is based in the cold, windy north east of england and runs for morpeth harriers. more info: http://thepowerof10.info/athletes/profile.aspx?athleteid=85867
So is 2:09:57 and 2:12:33 two weeks apart some kind of record? Has anyone ever come close to that back-to-back?
Wow, Mr. Kawauchi is a freak of nature. Already a true legend.

Can't think of anyone right now. But in 1981/82 Kjell-Erik Ståhl ran 14 marathons within 12 months averaging 2:16:11.

Man, 14:18 and 2:11... wish I had that kind of endurance. You would think the USA could produce hundreds of 2:11's based off of this Mongolian's strength.

It's pretty good. Kawauchi is 13:59/2:08, also not shabby.

When Ståhl came 4th in the 1983 World Champ marathon (2,10) he had already run 5 marathons that year - all sub-2,15.
According to Brett Larner's write up, they (Ochir and Kawauchi) went 15:02 for 5k between 25k and 30k, so I would have to think the could run faster than 14:18 for a track 5000 now.

Yes, but I was asking whether he ran 2:09 and 2:12 or better two weeks apart. Did he?
Not including a 50k late spring, Kawauchi has run 5 marathons this year, all but one sub-2:15. I imagine he'll be well under that in Tokyo in Feb.
Feb: 2:08, Tokyo
Sept: 2:16, World Champs
Oct: 2:14, Osaka
Dec: 2:09, Fukuoka
Dec: 2:12, Hofu
Didn't Clayton run 2:17 a week or so before one of his WR's?

I'm pretty sure that there was a Kenyan runner who did sub 2:10 on consecutive weeks, but I'm unable to find his name. It's entirely possible I'm misremembering.
Ken Young from the ARRS emailed and said the record for back-to-back sub-2:10's is 43 days:

Here's the field for Osaka 2012 Marathon
Mizuki Noguchi
Azuza Nojiri
Kayoko Fukushi
The 2012 Osaka Marathon isn't until Nov. 25. I don't think it's very likely any of those women will run there.
Happy Monday, Brett ;)
