(My friend lives in NY and knows and spoke with Okuti about his goals this fall)
Harbert Okuti, an Ugandan Runner in New Paltz, NY area said he plans to break the Marathon World record of 2:03:23 by at least a minute during his fall marathon. Meaning at least a 4:38 Mile pace. Apparently his training has been going very well and he has confidence to say that it's possible based off his current fitness.
Is this guy being naive or does he have a legit resume to back up these claims?
