Right back at you, champ.
I was talking about 2012 Osaka Ladies Marathon in January 29th.
Who will make the Olympic Team?
I want Akaba, and Fukushi to get selected. I'm not sure about the 3rd person. Maybe Nakamura for making the team in 2008.

Uhm, yeah, that's a few days old news by now. But he was clearly talking about the Women's Marathon. Am I missing something?
I'll be impressed when he runs 2:05, otherwise he's just an average joe.

That's what he says! Although he probably would get more ass than average joe. And that's what really bothers you. More web porn for you, my dear.

So is 2:09:57 and 2:12:33 two weeks apart some kind of record? Has anyone ever come close to that back-to-back?

Bill's 1/11/76 entry: "Only ran once today - lazy a$$ that I am! Sh-t! About 19 miles at slow pace over easy hills course."
Only someone like Bill could have berated himself for running only once after 4 days of doubles and doing 19 miles for his only run of the day.
Yay the elite field for Osaka.
Mizuki Noguchi (Team Sysmex) - 2:19:12 (Berlin '05)
Constantina Dita (Romania) - 2:21:30 (Chicago '05)
Naoko Sakamoto (Team Tenmaya) - 2:21:51 (Osaka Int'l '03)
Kayoko Fukushi (Team Wacoal) - 2:24:38 (Chicago '11)
Kiyoko Shimahara (Second Wind AC) - 2:25:10 (Hokkaido '09)
Lidiya Grigoryeva (Russia) - 2:25:10 (Los Angeles '06)
Azusa Nojiri (Team Daiichi Seimei) - 2:25:29 (London '11)
Mihaela Botezan (Romania) - 2:25:32 (London '03)
Chika Horie (Team Univ. Ent.) - 2:26:11 (Hokkaido '02)
Madoka Ogi (Team Juhachi Ginko) - 2:26:55 (Osaka Int'l 08)
Tetiana Gamera-Shmyrko (Ukraine) - 2:28:14 (Krakow '11)
Risa Shigetomo (Team Tenmaya) - 2:31:28 (London '11)
Irene Kemunto Mogaka (Kenya) - 1:11:38 (Berlin Half '10)
But are the rest of them saving themselves for Nagoya.
In 08 only Yurika Nakamura got selected in Nagoya. It's better to run Osaka instead.
Baysa and amane gobena is not running. No ethiopians in the field. Why isn't Akaba defending her title?
