Potentially Suspicious Runner To Run 836 Miles in 9 Days for "Charity"

Just a small correction. He never crossed the start line at London. His apparent start time is 10:00:02 which is the official gun time and there was no way he was right at the start with his red number. Not that this makes any real difference.

He had to cross the start mat and finish mat to get a finish. You can start quite soon after 10 actually.

I was in blue wave the other year in the wave for 4 hour runners and I crossed the line only 3 minutes after 10, standing at the start of my wave.

I wonder what some of the newspaper article headlines will be. How about:

Reading, unwilling and unable

Nope, 10:00:02 refers to 2 seconds not minutes. Only the elites have the exact gun time on the blue start and those lucky enough to be right on the very front of red and green. Front of red is good for age so Dave wouldn't have been there based on his number. He did not cross the start and when the timing software sees he crosses the finish the best guess they can give is the official gun time so that gets put against his record.

You are correct, a lot of people with the high pen numbers do sneak forward but not on to the start line.

He could only have got a gold bond place, there is usually a minimum amount you guarantee to raise - it would be interesting to see his Justgiving pages for 2015 and 2016, they should still be up.

Note to Dave and Terrie

According to 'Shite Hawk' even your close mates are bailing and calling it a scam and a sham. You know, those mates like your non-coach, photographer, driver, masseur, etc, even one of your staunchest supporters, Nicky at Mattressman, has wiped any reference to you, FMD he's even wiped his personal LinkedIn page.

The walls are closing in. My advice, come clean before it all explodes, otherwise this and that Daily Mail link is what awaits you.

Dave is MILITARY TOUGH. Dave NEVER GIVES UP.

Here is Dave before his ULTRARUN = Tactical Advance into Battle (TAB) = Walking = military exercise:

Here is Dave after his ULTRARUN = Tactical Advance into Battle (TAB) = Walking = military exercise:

Oh boy.

Ah, i thought it said 2 minutes after 10.

You would think only crossing the finish would flag up with them and not generate a result at all.

So all he had to do was run the last mile, not even have to mess about getting from start to finish.

What a total waste of a precious race entry. Thousands of people not getting in the ballot would have loved that.

I have sent them the missing mat times but they haven't opened my message yet.

The Brits did not open your email message yet???

This is urgent.

The Brits MAY NEVER OPEN AN EMAIL MESSAGE.

For example:

Lord Sebastian Coe

Hey Brits.

Please open and read the email about Dave and Terrie.

Brits are pathetic.

Kaiha, do please fcuk off with your endless rants about Brits. We get that you don't care much for us, in much the same way that we're inclined to think that all of you Septics are loud, brash, horrendously overweight, MacDonalds-chomping gobshites, with a gun fetish to make up for having very tiny c0cks. However, occasionally we do have to play together, in order to prevail against the big bad world out there - and LeJog scammers. This is one such time.

Thanks old chap.

Looking at the time stamps on Fake Kaiha's posts is it likely that he or she is not in the US? I presume that all the posts are timestamped with US Central Daylight Time (unless there is a server time config issue)

I have sent them the missing mat times but they haven't opened my message yet.

It could be that they have but chose to ignore 'read receipt' or have IT policies on their email servers that strips out 'read receipt' requests.

Dave here, still on pace for WW

Perhaps Brits do not open emails because they think it may be from the dentist.

Aye, you Yanks are so purrty....

Google lejogrun2017 and find that picture of Dave at horse guards parade after running from Norwich! Very fresh there Dave, it's almost as if you just stepped out of the van. I would be inclined to turn the cannon round and fire.

Thanks for that, I was unaware of the existence of Twicopy, how useful

Just to clarify about the 10:00:02 start time for his London Marathon--

The Start line mats only stay active for a specified period of time, then I believe they get turned off, or just switched over to Finish line mode, if the Start and Finish are in the same place.

So if a runner arrives very late and still ends up running the course, their chip won't register at the Start line, but it will register at other mats on the course.

When this happens, the official timing system just gives them the gun time as their start time.

This happened to a guy I know. He arrived like an hour late, but still wanted to run (he's not a real serious runner) so he did. His Start time was listed as the gun time because the Start line mat was no longer active and did not register him crossing. Needless to say, his official time was quite slow as it added about an hour to his overall time.

So Dave likely never crossed the Start line at all. May have just gone directly to the Finish line and not even bothered to go to the Start line.

So what you are saying is that he has out-Rossied Rossi and out-Kipped Kip ? Groundbreaking work there from Dave.

This is how the BBC is reporting it. Blames "hateful online trolls" for his failure ffs

Or--here's another explanation I just thought of.

He could've crossed the Start line about an hour after the race started. He thought his chip would register at the Start line. But it didn't, so the gun time became his official Start time.

He then proceeded directly to the Finish line and ran across it.

This would explain why he was claiming a 3:12 marathon time right after the race, because that's what he thought the timing system would show! Holy cow, it all adds up now!
