"Zane and his twin brother Jake will probably go to the marathon now so we might see both of them in that event at the Commonwealth Games which would be pretty exciting. Their half marathon times indicate that they are going to be in the top eight or ten in the world in the marathon."
Robertson twins both now "probably" moving up to the marathon

So... They couldn't hack it as track runners?

Yeah, right. Possibly in a watered down Oly or WC race....not in one with unlimited Kenyans. -

I'm sure they (the Robertson's) don't feel this way, but I sort of feel bad for them. I mean, they could have been living a bit more lavishly back home in New Zealand or at a training group in the States. Perhaps better equipment, more press coverage, etc. I mean, I get that they wanted to train with the best, but they in a way wasted their years in Africa just to be average on the track..
Again, that is just my take. I'm sure they loved every bit of their experience there. -
Nothing wrong with twins!

Actually, they were top eight or ten with the unlimited Kenyans in the half marathon. Are you just jealous they are world class and actually can beat anyone in the US? -

Agree with you... people are just asinine for asinine sake. You guys could learn a thing or two from those two
Last i checked Zane ran the fastest 10k on the road in the world last year (27'28" in Berlin), East Africans included.... Jake is ranked #10 in the world this year with his win in Lisbon
Will their 60'01" and 59'47" times on the half turn into equivalent marathon times of 2.05/2'06? I dont know. They do thave a shot though with their unique training setup.... Incidentally #10 in the world this year has run 2.06".07", so far, so it is not that far fetched. -
Feel bad for Mo too. Also
Couldn't hack it on the track. -
There is something wrong. These "twins" are literally the same person - Lindsay Lohan.
