We always hear about the typical LetsRun benchmarks - sub 14 5k, $250,000/year salary, and a smoking hot wife.
I ran with a guy who broke 14 and has a smoking hot wife, but he doesn't make that much money and isn't in a field where he ever will most likely.
I know two others who were sub-14 back in the day and eventually went on to make a ton of money but one never got married and the other... his wife is alright but not much of a looker.
And I'm sure lots of guys out there are rich and have really hot wives, but - have any of them broken 14?
Has it been done? CAN it ever be done? Thoughts?
Has anyone ever ACTUALLY pulled off the "LetsRun triple" (sub 14:00 / $250K / hot wife)?

What does it matter? We'll all be hemorrhaging from previously unknown orifaces soon anyway

PS, I'll accept conversions for inflation or foreign currencies for those who may have done it, just not in the present. But NO AGE GRADED CONVERSIONS. I don't want to hear about the rich guy who semi-retired at 45 and started owning up the triathlon age group scene.

I'm going for a lesser version of the combo.

Jason Rexing ran 13:53 at morning practice one day, just because one of us commented on how hard it would be for us.

Sub 15:00 / $100K / girlfriend you're at least attracted to?
That's still a quite respectable B standard I guess -

That's a good one actually. He's done all 3. (You don't have to CURRENTLY run sub-14... just have a sub-14 PR.) -
Every poster on these boards have done this.
-
His wife is not smoking hot. She's a 6 at best. Clearly these boards have lowered your standards for much of your life.

Sub 15, employed, hand lotion. -
I qualify if my wife is considered hot. I think most would say so, but she's not a bombshell.

I qualify
