Potentially Suspicious Runner To Run 836 Miles in 9 Days for "Charity"

Note that I will still be trying to get Scott to respond with the evidence.

Can anybody give me a list of names and positions of the people that make up the London Marathon organization? For something that is a "charity", they don't make it easy to find out who is running things. I can't even find Scott Overall listed anywhere as their Entry Coordinator let alone other positions.

There is something rotten in the house of London Marathon.

I just sent a fourth email to Scott Overall and he is "conveniently" taking a vacation starting today without answering my emails from each of the previous day's. And it has a nonsensical date of when he will return. It's "Back To The Future!"Scott, you look more and more guilty as you run.

Scott Overall

I am now out of the office until Wednesday 18th January 2017. Any queries regarding your 2017 Virgin Money London Marathon entry will be answered once I return

Mate, you're wasting your time with Overall, he's a nobody who thinks he's somebody, email London Marathon and put in the subject heading:

"Attention: Hugh Brasher, Race Director - Reference: Cheating"

As well as Brasher there's Nick Bitel, Chief Executive, if you look hard enough you may even find direct London Marathon email addresses for them both or even personal ones, I haven't got time to look.

Thanks for the names. I will try to find their emails. If someone has more information, I have left my email in the username of this post.

Overall obviously isn't going to reply, so HE needs reporting too, for failing to do his salaried job.

Yes, there is indeed a conflict of interest, with his job there and the fact that he takes part in the race.

So Nick Bitel is against cheating is he? Really?

Yeah well, in his mind there's cheating and then there's cheating, they're not equal.

Doping isn't the same as scamming a LEJOG or cutting a marathon, sure. But they are all cheating so equally as bad.

He claims he's against cheating, yet is happy for someone to be included in the results of his race when they only did the last mile.

I just forwarded the email chain between Scott Overall and me to Hugh Brasher and Nick Bitel. Hugh responded in minutes with:

Hi Andy

Thanks for your email. I will investigate it.

All the best

Hugh

So I guess we wait for a few days. Can anyone here vouch for Hugh Brasher or should I be on guard?

Who provided the London Marathon entries for Dave Reading for 2017, 2016, and 2015? Dave doesn't have any age grade performances that would qualify him and he would have to be incredibly lucky to win the lottery for all 3 years. 2015 might be a charity bib (but I don't see how he could have raised that much). 2016 he definitely doesn't have a charity bib since he is dressed in all black clothing like a burglar. And for 2017, I don't even know where he got the bib from since he only got SealSkinz sponsorship around March 30th and the London Marathon was on April 23rd.

Was Dave just lucky or would an insider at London Marathon have something to do with his incredible luck?

HAHA You guys are such idiots. Do you ever read over your posts and think what douche bag you two sad people are?

I pop in daily to laugh at how sad your lives are as you go about your day trolling people and making yourselves feel important.

You are seriously asking an anonomous massage board if "anyone can vouch for Hugh Brasher?"

Who do you think reads this thread apart from 3 people commenting on it (including myself)?

Trolling an Olympian who is abroad racing because he has not replied to you within 30 seconds of an email? If Scott replies on Monday, will you apologise for having a small willy?

Please continue guys, as I show all my friends this thread. We laugh about how sad people are in this world.

Dave is winning.Haha

Hi Terrie, nice to see you have learned to use a spellchecker and someone explained the difference between "his" and "he's" to you.

You would be surprised by how many people keep an eye on this thread because once a race cheat gets on the radar they never leave it unless they confess.

Hello there,

I did not realise this was the pro runner Scott Overall, just thought the name was coincidence. In this case the bloke is a complete tool, and have several stories to share about his fella when an elite. He is a certified ass of the highest calibre and is very motivated by money.

Yep, it's definitely the pro runner Scott Overall that we are dealing with here working as a London Marathon organizer. I went to the scottoverall dot com website with all his pro running stuff on their to email him about Dave Reading and he responded with an @londonmarathonevents.co.uk address.

Probably not Terrie, as she is illiterate. But clearly a Reading family member.

Maybe Dave himself.

Where's your Facebook gone David? Why have you removed it.

Do yourself a favour and google what this forum did to Rob Young. This fraud was scamming a living from fake runs, like you tried to do.

It's nearly a year since this place DESTROYED him and he's not run since.

Same will happen to YOU. You are finished as a runner, which is hilarious, as you were never a runner in the first place, just a jogger who cheated in races.

Another question for Hugh I think!

Sealskinz won't reply to any of my messages. They are so dumb.

I will have to ask Hugh how Dave Reading got all his bibs when he responds with the first part of the investigation.

I will have to give Sealskinz a shot myself. Does anyone find it odd that NONE of Dave Reading's LEJOG sponsors, WWTW, and even London Marathon have been willing to admit they've been scammed?
