This thread was originally titled, "Incredible development in the $612,000 Transcon Goodge run, currently ongoing" but the new title is more descriptive. The description of the run is here.
There are three ways to get ahead in this business:
Be first. Be smartest. Cheat.
Or, if you are Will Cockerel, just fabricate fake claims of "cheating" against PJ and then walk it back after I repeatedly prove you wrong with the data.
Accessing data and analyzing data are two very different things.
Which is also why none of you could even make basic graphs from the data without making tons of basic mistakes that I had to point out. You all thought downloading the data was the hard part when it was in fact so simple to download that a 5 year could do it in a minute.
Accessing data and analyzing data are two very different things.
A classic SOTG narrative flip flop from the 2024 transcon season:
SOTG : #3291 Your side continued to harrass Ashley Paulson even after she released her Garmindata, you will do the same to PJ. And from the Ashley Paulson thread, your side also had no idea how to analyze data exactly like in this thread and I had to correct your mistakes back then as I'm doing now in the data. This is far from my first rodeo.
*** It is widely known in the running community that Harvey Lewis was one of the elite runners spearheading this effort to ask for a scrutinize the AP Data even after it was released ***
SOTG : #3749 Renowned ultra runner and author Harvey Lewis is the latest boots on the ground that has run with PJ for the final 26.2 miles of the day and endorses PJ's fundraising for charity! In your face, haters! PJ is winning and you still have trouble plotting graphs of the data in Excel without me correcting all your basic mistakes.
*** It is widely known in the running community that Harvey Lewis was one of the elite runners spearheading this effort to ask for a scrutinize the AP Data even after it was released ***
Harvey Lewis isn't one of the haters of PJ. Harvey learned his lesson about Ashley Paulson and knows to listen to me before opening his big yap.
And you also don't see Will Cockerell pushing for the Garmin files anymore because Cockerell admitted in the previous page that PJ ran the transcon. What better endorsement of PJ than both Will Cockerell and Harvey Lewis believing he ran it?

No, I said I think he ran most of it. Vastly more than WG. Still massive data concerns when people weren't about. And some of his speeds stratospheric. Twice he fired off 30k for the last 3 hours of the day when people had gone home. 4 hours is more usual for the last 30k of a day.
But the main sharp practice for PJ is saying he'll do something amazing, get all the followers, endorsements and fundraising and then after about 7% just completely give up and enjoy the adventure of a lifetime for you, your friends and family, all paid for off the back of his lies.
Anyway SOTG, you still 100% back WG who is a complete laughing stock in the organized running world, so why should we take anything you say seriously, particularly as you hide like a coward behind anonymity. If you cared about the sport at all instead of trolling you would show your credentials. And not giving one single explanation why WG and RB have an HR of 105 for all their fundraisers, but are normal everywhere else, hurts them, it doesn't help them.
Ironically, you are WG, RB and Rich Roll's worst enemy. Defending them, but offering no defence.

The data has been downloaded. The python code has been written. The analysis has been done. The results have been rendered. And, SOTG has been determined to be 100% Fanboy.

How many times do I need to give you this lecture, Will? You cannot use the dumbed-down Strava graphs for anything because they strip away tons of data, including rest and slow movement periods. Did you even learn how to download the data after all this time and me actually showing how to do it in this thread?
It's easily sufficient to tell us something is terribly wrong, and everyone knows it. You're just with the Rich Roll argument that the monitors and Strava are "bullsh*t".
This argument is not that Goodge runs slowly and takes loads of time off, it's that he runs quickly and barely takes any time off. 104K here in 12:45, with 56 mins resting, some shocking climbing, and only four times does his pulse go above 119 for a day of 107HR:
And he and Balenger have literally hundreds of these runs going back 6 years.
Last night Goodge ran 8.3k in 48 mins which is eye-watering slow for a runner of supposed note and worth, but off a pulse of 166.
Let's just compare three Goodge kms with three Johnson kms from day 39:
PJ [interestingly he runs 9k less than WG but takes 1hr17 more] 15: 11:10, elev 1, HR 119 23: 11:00, elev 2, HR 120 36: 11:52, elev 2, HR 125
And that right there is the very heart of this debate. How does the significantly weaker runner, constantly win head to head mile battles by way over a minute [1:11, 1:10 and 1:28 here] with elevation differences negligible, and average 108 vs 122.
Johnson's pulse goes above 119 38 times in the day to Goodge's four.
And these weird anomalies crop up for WG and RB some 20,000 times over the past six year.
Ran *most of the Transcon. Walked a huge chunk. Rode some.
No-one is asking for the Garmin data anymore as PJ is not only a narcissist, but a liar. We know it's not coming. We're not going to beg. Why? We don't really care anymore about this nothing run. I just care about yanking your chain.
Also...being able to make a graph doesn't mean you can interpret it correctly. You can't.

They don’t. Not to a degree of significance. You're just saying that to add credence to your hokum. Sad. So sad.
