Why are you so surprised?
You are aware he was a 2:55 in New York last year?
Which was after his 50 in 50 shtick.
He ran just over 3 in NY
Dean is one heck of an athlete. It's a shame that someone like Ryan Hall who runs a mediocre marathon is stealing all of the glory away from a guy that can do stuff that nobody else can. Do you really think Bekele could run 50 marathons in a year? Get real, Dean is the man.
That's right! This guy "Bekele" only has to run 26 minutes for his race. Dean is out there for 3 hours or more, running TWENTY SIX MILES!!!
Since when is 2:06:17 a mediocre marathon you dumbshit?

I know it's really hard for some to gauge sarcasm online...but come on man. That is pretty bad.
I just got done reading his book Ultra Marathon Man..That dude is crazy..I wish i had the guts to try the things he has done...but i am still young so who knows..
he also ran a self supported 250k race across the Atacama desert the week before, along with a half marathon in Bear Mt NY, which saw your typical 1:45 to 2:00 come in 4:00+ before flying to Whidbey that evening and running the full as the host of the event..

I laughed.
It is a different Dean Karnazes, people. This one is a shoe salesman in Tacoma, WA. A bit like the two Mark Wetmores in the running world.
If the real dean k was in that race he would have smoked everyone and ran back to San Francisco. No wait, he would have run to the race to warm up in his Northface gear and 60 lbs of chocolate covered espresso beans and pizza strapped to his back, won the race and then windsurfed all the way back to Cali.
