About 1.5 minute negative split jog for Bob:

1:43:55/1:42:22

Last 10k in 48:28. Smoking!

and now it's on to Chicago and let's win there.

Next year. Todd vs Serena Williams.

Just for perspective, Wozniacki has $2.5 million in prize winnings in 2014. Add another $10+ million in sponsorships and not a bad effort for a hobby jogger.

Bob did gain 50 lbs. Don't toss out the criticisms, lest he take running seriously again and start running 2:20s or better.

If that 3:26 is right, quite a fine performance for Wozniacki, probably among the best famous female non-runners at the marathon.

Depending on what you consider a runner. Once you toe the start line, you are a runner.

Post of the day.

Wow. That made me smile. Well done.

But...did he look relaxed?

I know Bob has gained weight and doing it for his mental wellbeing, just getting out there and enjoying it, but you would think he would be able to run at least under 3 hours maybe even 2.50-2.40 considering he has the genetics to run at least 2.13 or under. I find this interesting and I think it then shows he must be more fast twitch than I realised than a slow twitcher and so training is much more important and the distance is harder, or basically that there is lot more to build back up to get in shape, the peak is higher but takes a lot longer to get to. Steve Way did like 2.55 marathon off a couple of weeks training at over 16stone and looked much fatter than Bob, but he is a stereotypical slow twitcher as he professed he could run a 1.40 half marathon basically on no training like literally never run before and gets out the door and does a 1.40. However his lack of fast twitch hinders him at the highest levels and shorter events. With a couple months and weight loss to look like a proper runner, goes and runs a 2.35 or so I think.

Basically what I'm trying to say is in a true slow twitcher the hardware is already there (muscles naturally endowed with a lot of mitochrondria and effecient fat metabolism) to pretty much get to around 6minute miles as a aerobic pace very quickly once someone is at the correct weight and learn good form but after that there is where the real training starts and the lactate threshold style runs become more important and can take a long time.impossible to speed up, vs the medium fast twitcher who needs a few years/months to build up the mitochrondria to the level of a fast twitcher but has a more even continuous progression from the beginning.

build up to the levels of a slow twitcher.

Man, you need to get a life......and a clue.

People like you are the kind that will drive him away from running in races again.

Nice effort CWoz

Wanna date?
