Nick Bare went One More: 2:48:11 @ Buffalo Marathon

is he still over 200 lbs?

225 currently.

I would say no. He looks much smaller in his videos. I would guess 180-185 on Sunday.

While also being in every banned substance known to man. Actually quite impressive he's still alive 👏

This comment says more than you than it says about Big Nick.

Ummm...what?

That squirrely weasel is on EPO, testosterone, and a crap load of bullsh*t supplements.

EPO is illegal. Nice try. It can't be bought or sold in the USA.

Wake up. Dude is a walking pharmacy.

Whatever helps you sleep at night...but I highly recommend melatonin. It's easier on the stomach than Haterade.

Alright alright already. You have GOT to be trolling.

Speaking from experience? Must be difficult to sleep when you've got such a raging hard-on for "Big Nick".

Faster than Greg at his fittest. Is Greg willing to dope?

So is heroin. Somehow a million people a year use it in the US.

I used to do the City2Surf in 50mins at 180 wearing ASICS piranhas lol

He's not 225 now, but maybe close to 200. He's 5'10". Of course he is on loads of stuff. Why wouldn't he be? His biz is all about his results and what he looks like. He is in this happy area where he is not good enough to be tested but by using it improves his results enough to garner a following. Just see this thread as an example.

I posted this before and I'll do it again:

Looks like there are no shortage of jealous beta male runners on any Nick Bare thread lmao. Very impressive time for someone his size. Maybe if he was 140 pounds soaking wet like the rest of the letsrun community he wouldn't get so much hate lol.

Just because someone can attain a build & workload that you NEVER can doesn't mean it isn't possible without PEDS for someone else. I'm not saying Nick isn't on something, but you need to consider his background. The guy is obviously a work horse and knows his nutrition well. I can respect someone who talks the talk and walks the walk. He's setting goals and hitting them while inspiring others to get more active through his channel. I don't get what's so wrong about that?

I get where you are coming from, but I can also understand why your typical letsrun user wouldn't take kindly to someone like Nick Bare. His time itself isn't all that impressive, but given he doesn't come from a running background and is probably around 200 pounds definitely makes things interesting. I do have a hard time believing he is natural. Whether he continues down the running path, or decides to do something else, I find him entertaining and motivating. As long as he isn't hurting anyone, I'm all for social media influencers drawing more attention running.

I think there is a lot of insecurity on letsrun, and it really shows when we have someone who doesn't come from a traditional running background, or look like your "typical" runner start to get some attention in the running world.
