Subject: Can a 14:00 29:00 10k guy out of college run 2:10 if he sticks with it?
Body:

I seem to remember a thread on that went against the belief systems of the vocal minority here.

Brett Gotcher, a 14:04/28:57 runner at Stanford, exploits his youth for a shot at running and is rewarded with a 2:10:35 debut marathon -- the 4th fastest debut by an American.

Congratulations!
