2:55 is still hobbyjogging
2:10 is hobbyjogging.
That’s about right. if you can’t break three hours, zero business being out on the streets.
The real question is, did Rich in CA make the cut?
Whole bunch of men need to identify as “non binary” now and just change their mind the day after the race. Men can get pregnant now and you pick your gender, so who cares!
If people have a problem with the bar going higher, start helping Derek Murphy catch bogus BQ times, because that's actually a big reason why.
DISCUSS, not DISCUS....DISCUSS has 2 S's. Do better.
only on letsrun.com will keyboard warriors who can't come close to a 2:55 or 2:10 for the marathon that call these incredibly quick marathon times "hobbyjogger" times.
Oh no, I just went from "no chance in hell" to "still no chance in hell"... but no worries. I am saving up enough money to make a big charitable donation so I can run the first 10 miles at 4:30:00 pace, fake a knee injury, and ride home on the sag wagon.
Na dude it’s discus
Three, actually.
This is because super shoes have made everyone faster. Times are meaningless now.
That true, confirmed? Just me but that is pretty stringent. The whole hobbyjogger thing is relativistic nonsense. It takes serious effort if not training for Larry Lunchbucket to break three!
Pretty simple solution. Just run another marathon that allows you to run whatever projected time you want. Or just measure out 42.195km and time yourself. It's cheaper.
Does this mean they let in more charity runners?
99% of runners are hobby joggers and just dont take it that Seriously
Is the cutoff 2:55 even if I'm a 65 year old woman?
Meh. Circa 2:58 AG for me, down to a few minutes faster for others in my group. I won’t bother trying if I’m higher than 2:50 AG.
Discuss is a field event.
