2:28
What have other narcissists run? Like Lance Armstrong or Oprah?
Considering he was 33:xx at clubs a year ago for 10k, I'm going with 2:39 or DNF. Probably DNF. If his performance dropped off that much already at 10k then his 800 capability will have no influence on his ability to run 26.2 miles.

So I was running through podcasts and came upon this gem where Nick Symmonds says he plans on running a marathon in 2018:

I'm thinking a 2:45.

Christophe Lemaitre for 1 mile rather than Nick Symmonds for marathon, I think.
1:25 half points to about 3:00/3:05
His goal is to run sub-3 so my bet is 2:55-2:57
Andrew Wheating??
Do you really think he'll even think about a marathon let alone run one?
Jim Walmsley with a 2:13 that is rich. I expect Shaquille O'Neal to run 2:37 at the Miami Marathon.
Eugene marathon hype bump.
#Breaking3
Nick posted all his marathon buildup training for Honolulu last year and ended up with a 3 flat. He is running Eugene this weekend. I've noticed he hasn't made any Youtube posts about it. I'm thinking he tried to step up his training and got hurt.
Or has been lazy about the build up. He climbed some mountain a couple months ago, right? I suspect he's been screwing off. 3+ and goes home disappointed
His girlfriend is hot enough to thoroughly weaken his legs, and worse, his will. DNF.
So who won the contest?
Is he still running?
Will he break 3?
He finished. No word on time yet though. Anyone know?
He only ran the half
Results show 1:26
Pretty sure he only did the half in just under 1:27, Ryan “time trialed” a 1:20ish last week so not gonna be close between them
Can't find Nick but Julia Webb ran 2:44 and Ryan Trahan ran 2:36 https://results.chronotrack.com/event/results/event/event-39788
Looks like Ryan did 2:36:51 so 1:10:02 behind Symonds for an extra half....
