Oh Runnergal, that is definitely her. Research her pics and watch the video. At one point, she presents him with his medal. That is her. Pause the video 27 seconds in. She's even wearing an iranmarathons shirt.

Hmmm

I don't know Larry and I sure hope he is legit. But the fact that he is associated constantly with PM cannot be a good thing.

New to this thread. That woman ran Badwater and holds marathon world records? Thinking no way in hell to be blatantly honest.

Who is the woman in the white and blue outfit running next to him?

Why that is the one and only PM herself! Someone actually found the elusive PM and got her on tape. It's almost like seeing Bigfoot.

Wow. Great find! Hoe does she keep gaining weight? Even running 13.1 during her marathons should keep her somewhat fit! Yikes.

watching that video made me throw up a little in back of my mouth. such garbage.

Look closer. That scene of her running is a set-up. She is in a boot and isn't running right now.

She claimed and posted 7-50k's in a row last week. Yes. Seven. These were all her races on her courses by the way. I witnessed at least two days of her physically moving but I could only stay a short bit before I had to get back to the in-laws to do up the holidays. Larry was there too, hence the video.

She has a bib on and awarded herself a finishers time.

Then how did she run 7 times 50k last week? Only a superstar could do that.

Wow she is clearly moving with a pronounced limp and clearly has a boot or something on her left foot but not her right.

217 mile week ?

Either she is less than straight or she is putting her body at serious risk for her personal glory concept

That's correct. I wasn't trying to defend her but rather just pointing out that to the extent she is "running", she is running in a boot with a pronounced limp. This would explain how she could run 200+ miles in a week and still be gaining weight.

What does walking a 50k in regular regular shoes versus walking a 50k in a boot have to do with an explanation of weight gain? Walking is walking She walks everything anyway based in her slow times.

Walking 50k's a boot to break marathon records is simply weird. Who wants to be walking 7-8 hours s day? Over the holidays? Is she really out the entire time? Who is monitoring these races to ensure the laps and times are correct?

Seems like Larry does the vast majority of his marathons through the same race organization.

This is just wavko to be getting all this record breaking attention.

What day was Larry there? He was in Kingwood Texas "running" the Texas marathon on 1/1/15.

Seems like they claim to have run 12 days in a row. Larry 12 marathons. PM 12 50K's

http://www.iranmarathons.com/Results_2014.html

Not sure how someone could run huge distances 12 straight days in the cold by themselves basically. All on the same boring out and back course. This is basically running by yourself as nobody is out there watching it tracking. Plus you always have the out of "I took the early start" and was running waaaaay before everyone else hot here.

Course

Marathon - 8 x 3.28 miles out and back

50K - 5 x 10K out and back.

So in 12 days Larry claims to have run 314 miles while PM pounded out 372 miles. How about we get some real runners and athletes to comment on the feasibility of type of mileage? Please, can a orher runners please add some perspective?

Plus he was running on New Years too? Make that 13 days straight?

on her Facebook page she claimed 16 marathons by December 19, and you say she claimed 7 50ks the last week so that has her at:

16x26=416 miles

7 x 50k = 217 miles week

even not counting anything for Dec 20-24,

she is at 633 miles per month for December

no wonder she is in a boot if she is running/walking that kinda mileage at her apparent weight at her apparent age

seriously, what percentage of people on the planet could claim 633 miles per month for recreation/sport pursuit??

50 K's in 2015:

Jan 1/ 11:24

Jan 2/ 10:26

Jan 3/ 9:15

Jan 4/ 9:34

Jan 5/ 6:38

11:24 is 22 minute miles. Almost half her New Years Day was walking an out and back. I really don't get it.

11:24 w a boot is counterproductive to rehab but far be it from me to stop her. 6:38 in a boot didn't happen. No way.
