      • He was certainly born with great recovery genetics (if these even exist)....but Im wondering if he's setting himself up for a serious injury by racing about 180 miles in just 7 days.

      • Is this supposed to be impressive? I knew a guy who was 51-52 years old then and he ran a 2:30 marathon every month (12 2:30 marathons per year at his age)

      • She's complaining by submitting "written evidence" to an inquiry into women in sport. In other words, she wrote the court a letter, then called a newspaper to say, "I've written the court a letter; come round to take a photo of my and my medals."

        And her written evidence has some pretty earth-shattering news:

        “Women’s sport is viewed, in most instances, as secondary to men’s sport by virtue of the fact that – apart from in a very few instances such as equestrianism – women do not compete equally in strength and times etc.

        “Therefore, the ‘ultimate’ winner of a race or competition or event will always be the strongest, fastest, highest etc. and this is – in nearly all instances – a man."

        I'm over these people doing stupid meaningless running things. Some even claim world records for them. This woman is complaining because she doesn't get enough recognition.

      • Considering that approximately 2:35 is the winning 50-year-old male category time for NYC, Berlin, Chicago and Boston the answer is you are completely full of shit.

      • Don't know who is being referenced in the post about the 51-52-year-old guy with a 2:30 marathon every month, but in 2013 my 52-year-old Cal Coast Track Club teammate Matt Ebiner ran 13 marathons, with 11 of those between 2:32 and 2:39, along with a slew of other races. Quite impressive.

        Why didn't he just run one marathon in under 2:30?
        Why is one better than 12? What's fun about that?

      • He didn't run a marathon.

        He ran 26 miles @ 7:50 pace for 7 days @ age 51.

        The Ukranian female ran a marathon in 2:31 at age 51 a few
        years back.

        Jogging 7:50 pace isn't as hard as running 26 @ sub 6
        at 51.
