This may have been done on letsrun before.
But who is the fastest runner you have beaten?

Henry Rono- but he was an alcoholic and running real slow. But a win is a win.
43,000 runners in Chicago just beat Dennis Kimetto and Stanley Biwott.
Anybody remember marijuologist's "I'm the greatest runner in the world" thread? That was gold.
Anyway, I used to soundly beat Jordan McNamara in high school. I always thought his improvement post-HS was fishy. Call me a salty dog if you will.
I beat Bob Kennedy IN HIS PRIME over 5k at a local Race for the Cure.
In Bob's defense, he was running with his wife, who I think ran in the 20:00 range.
Takeyuki Nakayama
I've beat a handful of post-prime, out-of-shape, formerly sub-elite runners. For example, beat Mark Wieczarek (1:45 guy) in a road 5k.
I got Cas Loxom a few times. I suppose in terms of sprint speed he's the fastest.
Is Jamin a guy. His messages are very ambiguous.
I beat Johnny gregorek at a random 5k in van Cortlandt. I was just browsing the results and saw his name. iirc, he was about 15 seconds behind me. Probably was just jogging it and then let me go when he saw me sprinting the last straightaway. Still beat him though.
Chris Derrick, freshman year of HS
Steve Scott in a 10 miler. He and his buddies got lost on the course. ;)
Chris Solinsky at an all comers track meet when he was in high school...in the 100m dash. I'll take it!
I beat the best local HS male 5k runners at a rinky-dink race. I ran the course beforehand, and when those two were sent the wrong direction, I knew which way to go. So, I beat a kid who is about 3-3:30 faster than me over 3.1 miles in a 3.1 mile race (ok, it was about 3.7 miles for him). Old man smarts, baby.
I once beat a guy by 0.06 seconds and I am very fast, therefore he was also very fast. But I beat him.
