Ananlize my Chicago Splits

this is classic. if this clown realy is running NYC someone needs to find him....would be impossible on the starting line....so someone would need to find what hotel he is staying in and track him from hotel to start line and then run right next to him the entire way. easiest way to find out where this guy is staying would be to get his phone # or e-mail and contact him about a week before the race, tell him you are a reporter from NYC who is writing a race preview article....and he is one of the favorites in his agegroup, and you'd like to interview him at his hotel once he is in town.

i am actually considering doing this. i'd probably need to get a race # in order to get on a race bus to follow him from hotel to start line. i have access to a number so i guess this is doable. i'd run the race and just taunt him the entire way..."hey bill, there's a subway station, looks pretty tempting, huh?"

wow, this just seems like too much fun. of course if he is reading this thread then i've blown my strategy for finding him in NYC.

It's possible to be a heel striker and run fast. I wouldn't focus on that.

Meanwhile, I found San Fransisco 2003: 3:03:19 for 2nd place age 50 to 54.

Isn't SF a hard course?

That was a joke tight assssssssss.

Maybe he became a minimalist at the age of 50. That would result in the huge jump in times that he has been running.

Pesonally, I think it was his switch to Pose.

If you would like to learn more about the POSE emthod of training, pleas eshoot me an email, or visit the POSE method of trianing website.

POSE method of training can help you reduce race times, win girls, influence people and have a better experience in the sack.

It has worked wonders for everyone, just ask Michael Johnson, Brian Sell, William Jurena and Charles Bronson.

I'm wondering two things: 1. does any race actually attempt to verify age via a drivers license for example or does everyone just accept age claims at face value? 2. do any race officials actually look at the split times every 5K to look for anomalies; it seems not. It seems as if the chip timing is of no purpose unless someone actually looks at the results.

o.k before this thread dies. i've got to say i bet he'll bust one wide open at NY....

i say 2:59

will he beat lance?

I like your enthusiasm, but that sounds like way too much effort. Seriously though, based on the overwhelming evidence, shouldn't Jurena be banned from competing for life?

We were going to lunch at 2:45 on raceday when several of them came staggering in. My wife said hi to one, who must have recently finished, and she just shivered in her mylar blanket and stared into space.

It was quite a shock to them to feel what it's like to run the WHOLE distance. :-)

Uh oh, the dreaded double post. Sorry about that.

Superb sleuthing and thread -

I may have missed it, but did anyone here forward this sht to the Chicago Marathon folks to get this jerk dq'd.

Another one to add to this hallowed list of: Martin Franklin, Larry Mgoba(sic), Ted Poulus, et al

yes i would bet Bill will beat Lance

Bill at this moment is strategizing which streets he will cut to reach his goal of 2:59. He will have this all figure out at race time.

He posted the same "analyze my splits" crap on the badgerland striders web page. It took about two responses for someone to call out the fact that he is a cheat.

Little boy, it was not he who started the thread.

Look alive. LOOK Alive.

2.50 at NYC well ahead of Lance.

Oh my goodness. Lets analyze this, should we? He's an old person (55-60) that used to fully complete marathons in 4 hours. Obviously, hes done a lot of them and enjoys them.

Now he is at an age where is body is breaking down, and can't really train for them, and it's hard for him to compete a whole one. BUT he still loves the atmosphere, and the socializing, but not so much the running. So he thinks he'll enter and just run part of it.

What other motivation is there?

I agree he is in essence "Cheating" and shouldn't finish, but seriously. Hes NOT winning money. And as far as placing ahead of people, who cares if you're 1478th, or 1479th?

Do you guys hear yourselves? You're talking about tracking this guy down, finding him before New York in his hotel, and finding his address/phone number to send him messages. This is really not a big deal.

And if this is the most outrageous thing in your life right now, you should be out ENJOYING this time instead of spending it on letsrun.

do you have AIDS?
