The boycott must continue.
Yoooooooooooooo Ragen Chastain walked The Seattle Marathon in 12 hours and 20 min. She's an elite athletes casually strolling a marathon so all you hobby yoggers can shove it. When elites are out there busting there butts walking 12 hour marathons you can take your boycott and leave. #BUHBYENOWHATERS

So she walked two and a half hours, took a very long nap, walked 15 minutes to a nice cafe, ate a leisurely lunch with a bottle of wine, then took a three hour stroll to the finish line?
I don't see how else you can walk 26 miles in 12 hours.
Nope - Pitter pattered to a DFL 12 hour marathon. Yelled at course volunteers who pleaded with her to quit. They had to stand out there and wait 4 extra hours after the next closest finisher. That's right - the 3rd to last person finished in 8:20:34. So selfish.
She may have received a finishing time, but she missed the 20 mile mat.
Derek Murphy are you looking into this?
Is it even possible to walk 28 minutes per mile after averaging 25 minutes per mile for the first half?

So she cheated to go sub 13 hours in a marathon? Wow.

No, they didn't have to wait for her. They could have told her to fvck off. Blame the RD, not her. The race should have had posted cutoff times. Most do.
BTW who cares. What does this have to do with anything real regarding running of a marathon? The runners were not impacted by this in any way.
Some good threads getting bumped back today... love it.
