The difference between how he looked last week and this week are pretty striking. Not only is he sunburned, but he looks like he lost a lot of weight in just a few days.

It has been touched on before. But I invite everyone to take scroll through the pictures on Facebook. It is striking to see the difference in appearance in all of the photos dating after the Ultra boys hooked up with him. The before pics look like somebody on a fun loving road trip. The after pics look like somebody in an endurance event. For those that claim that this was the first part of the race and that is why he looks fresh, you are nutz. He should have looked spent after about 500 miles (desert, mountains).
For those that have a problems with the incredibly fast miles mixed in with the slower 12+ minute miles. Just remember, it can be a challenge to make an RV not run fast and slow without decent cruise control.
Triathleteguru, this was meant to be a reply to you.

The biggest problem by far with this forum for me is people who cannot or will not trim quoted posts resulting in a mess to look at and follow.

He will be forced to 90% walking, and very limited sleep. Can't walk 60 miles and get a good night's rest.

17.5 miles in 10.4 hours are 1.666 miles per hour. Truly the speed of an up and coming ultrarunning superstar.
I think Robert is really hurting right now.
He probably won't run a 6 or 10 day race ever, he probably will never do any other race as well. Today is the day where the truth comes to light.

Problem is, that could be explained by just wearing down from the entire run. But if Laz and crew being there forced the result- mission accomplished - no record - and guaranteed scrutiny from the start of any other attempts.
There are claims that he is taking Joe Fejes up on his offer and will participate on Sri Chinmoy.
He needs to participate in a 6 or 10 day multi-day event that mirrors the types of times he put up early in this run for any sort of vindication. If he scrapes out 50 miles a day until NYC, it really doesn't prove much.
Robert has never claimed that he ran spectacular times out west. These times are entirely deduced from the tracker in the RV by lrc dweebs. He will dismiss any wrongdoing by saying that the GPS data on his watch is his proof that he ran the entire stretch, albeit at a slower time. And he is not going to give the GPS data to anyone.

June 15. Is he falling apart? It would be nice if there was a camera on him when he quits.

He claimed to have run an average of 70 miles a day over a month. THAT is spectacular.

Stop fantasizing.
Too bad that's not true. They posted pictures of supposed GPS watch track summaries on facebook that were supposed to back up the Live Tracker. I verified the most egregious of the GPS watch tracks did indeed match to the Live Tracker, including several 25+ mile @ 6:45ish/mile paces.

Is it already over?

Now at Holiday Inn Express (near the airport). But you're right. It had to backtrack to get there.

Robert probably needs another massage after a tough night of crawling along with 1.66 mph.

No dumb dumb, that's not all we need.

That is what it's comes down to, to see if he can churn out the miles despite getting more fatigued every day. He was supposedly used to running a Marathon a day, now he has to run at least 2 to get anywhere close to that record. For 2 weeks more.
Does this Great and Powerful Laz not understand that we really don't need to know whether not RY is cheating now? We really need to have him upload his GPS data for the miraculous segments earlier in the run. And now I hear that he is advising RY not to post his data?
