That should read:
2:59:25 - William Jurena (cheater), Pittsburgh Marathon 2003
As I recall he split something like 1:52 & 1:07. The 1:07 would have been a new (1/2 marathon) national record for his age group.

Did you notice that Jurena is the ONLY person on the list that does not have a "description" after his name?
Every other poster has "singer" "actor"... after their names. Nothing by him. Even Rosie, gets "cheater" after hers.
Are you sure about this? When and where? That would be amazing if true.
Other than Katie Holmes and updating lance's time, are there any other runners that should be added to the list of sam w after today's NY Marathon?
Dean's time would need to be updated.

Did Dean Karnazas (sp) run NY?
I had not heard this. How did he do?
2:55 and change...
Not the first time George Bush kicked Al Gores ass. hahaha, political joke :-D

That is a new PR for him. He was just over 3 hours last year.
That still puts him a ways behind Jurek who had a 2:38 last year in Austin.
Should John Bingham's Personal best of 5:49 be on there?
General David Petraeus, Commander of troops in Iraq - 2:50:53 Omaha Marathon 1982.
Alan Page, NFL player and MN Supreme Court Justice, 3:57:39 Grandma's Marathon. He has a faster time in the 3:20s, but I could not find verification of the race or year. I suspect he was left off the list before based on a lack of verification.
Both of these names/times were from Runners World articles in the last 3 months.
I would also add:
3:46:10 – Gordon Ramsey (Chef) London Marathon 2006
3:20:xx – Joe Strummer, (Singer in The Clash) London 1983
Wikipedia now lists Dana Carvey as having a 3:04 time from a 1972 race. Can anyone confirm that?
Dana Carvey, Ocean to Bay Marathon 1972 (3:04:21)
Bump
Not something I would add, but interesting times anyway:

I just check wikipedia and I don't see anything about a marthon. But what I do see in Wikipedia is that Dana Carvey was born in 1955. So he was 17 in 1972. It does not seem likely that a 17 year old ran a 3:04 marathon.

You're concerned about Lance's time and didn't notice that the WR needs updating?
