Look at these excerpts from the article.
Robbie gets the DISTANCE OF A MARATHON WRONG!!!
“She took my bet and the next morning I got up in the early hours and drove to a certified track in Richmond and did the whole 26-mile, 365-yard course.
“I had only done the odd fun run before that so it was a bit of struggle but I felt strong enough to do the same the next day, and the next, and the next. It sort of snowballed from there.â€
26 miles and 385 yards Robbie!! Sorry. Try again.
Dr Kipps said: “Rob is a phenomenon. His ability to run marathons day after day is astonishing. He is rewriting the textbooks.â€
Daniel E Lieberman, Professor of Biological Sciences at Harvard University in the US, said: “Rob is one of the most extraordinary athletes I have ever measured.
“His running form is exquisite.â€
WTF?!!! What are they talking about?
Robbie is NOT rewriting any textbooks. He is not a phenomenon Dr. Kipps.
Robbie is NOT one of the most extraordinary athletes ever measured.
(Robbie is a 3:30 marathoner…maybe 3:07... but I doubt it).
And Robbie finishes with:
GET set to think up a new running challenge for Rob – he has appealed for Sun readers to come up with his next big project and is looking for innovative and exciting ideas to help him boost his charity fund.
He said: “I thought about running around the world but that’s too boring and it’s been done, so I’m looking for something really challenging and special. (He can't bring an RV around the world!)
“I’m looking for something impossible – like running across the North Pole.â€
