His watch data will show two things:
2. The cadence data. This will show whether is he is running/walking or sitting in an RV.
Exactly. It's the feats he claims prior to the OP incident in Kansas that is completely unbelievable.

You are going about it wrong. Either they post the data immediately or you need to offer a reward for him replicating the early, unbelievable feats. How much money is it worth for you to live feed him running unsupported across that desert section? I bet you could make it up in ppv sales.
LOL.

“At some point Rob dropped off the pace and Michael [a member of the crew], who was driving, failed to notice. So Rob ended up isolated. He continued on to a town and called Michael from a stranger’s phone to tell him to stop.â€

"In a later email (after they thought up a new story), Brooks provided a more detailed explanation of what happened that night. “At some point Rob dropped off the pace and Michael [a member of the crew], who was driving, failed to notice. So Rob ended up isolated. He continued on to a town and called Michael from a stranger’s phone to tell him to stop.â€
"Brooks also wrote that the crew had been in contact with the car wash to review a lengthier portion of the footage. He said they found Young running by nine minutes after the RV"
So when first asked about it, Rob and his crew totally forgot about the time when they got separated by more than a half mile and Rob had to flag down a stranger to call the RV.
Then they remembered and clarified it in a later email. A one-time failure in their system of watching Rob's flashlight and him waving it when he's accosted by knife-wielding madmen and the RV immediately stopping so he could get in and they could drive off only to return to the same spot to resume running.
So they get a half mile and nine minutes (two miles with coffee) apart but don't notice.
Makes sense. I believe him.
noobrunner is not a noob sleuth.

In order for it to fit in the limit for anon upload, I had to remove the part of the KML that composed the solid line for the path along the roads, but that was irrelevant anyway because it contained no timestamps.
All the timestamped checkpoints of his progress are in there so you can calculate distances/speeds.
Money to his charity = money to Robert Young.

Rojo - offer money to his children's charity if he provides the data he claims to have.
The video I recently posted was of a person 9 minutes after the RV passed. I don't know if that is Rob or not. I think the whole "I have run every step, come see for yourself" is the part where they are calling me a liar.

From the sound of it, the messages are arriving by stagecoach.
any info from the elders? wrote:
So do these old guys run or bike with Robert? Or do they follow him in a car?
The charity's accounts can all be viewed through the Uk Charity Commission at http://beta.charitycommission....48&subid=0 and all seem reasonable and legitimate. Nowhere does Robert Young appear as a beneficiary or able to access funds which have been donated directly to the charity (auch as via JustGiving).

Good to know. Any way of checking the American charities?
