Rodgers was a very gifted marathon runner, probably capable of 2:05xx with today’s footwear. Joe has been a tremendous 5/10 runner, and he is now in the mix to make US teams in the marathon, but he is no Billy Rodgers at the distance, and likely will never be, just as Billy was no Joe Klecker on the track.
What does Bill Rodgers have to do with anything?
I did not want to go there. Why do you drag me back in here? For those of you who are sniffing Joe’s jock due to a 2:10:37 in super shoes, and you are one of them, trying to bash anyone who is intelligent, some perspective is needed. Joe would have likely run 2:13 in the old footwear, and so it wouldn’t have been a bad debut, far from it, but it might keep some of the sniffers like you from being so bold in trashing others.

Huh? You seem really confused. I didn’t say anything about sniffing some jock whatever that is

Following up here. Are you less confused now? Have you gotten the help you need? I just want the best for you
What would he be taking in to get that many carbs/hour?
He said his bottles had ~50g of maurten in them. 400ml of fluid per bottle, which he consumed entirely every 5k. Comes out to about 3 liters of fluid/350g of carbs consumed during the race. Wild.
Ben ran 27:14 the year he debuted with his 2:12:53, and it is not clear Joe can run even that fast currently, so I am not sure what exactly your point is.
My point is that Klecker just tan 2:10:37, b*tch
They basically had the same debut. 2 minutes for super shoes.
How embarrassing is it for Reed Fischer to still be struggling with the marathon with coach Hunter the mastermind. Klecker knocks out a 2:10 on a debut.
