Callum Hawkins, who got 4th today in 60:39, ran a 140 miles the week prior

absolute bloody minded toughness

A 140 miles?

I see Jared Ward in the pack. Any idea on his time?

Josh McDougal called, he wants his training back.

- implying that's the only person who trained that way.

- when that's how a lot of top marathoners and even 10000 guys train.

What marathon is Hawkins running next? Or is he building up for a truly fast half to beat the GB record?

Ward finished 11th in 63:18

Worked out great for him, didn't it?

Josh McDougal's training stood out not because he ran high mileage, but that he did it in singles.

I do believe the poster mentioned the thread is about Hawkins. Which is true. I can see that in the subject line pretty clearly. The thread wasn't about the article, nor about Mo winning. Pay attention. If you would like to make a separate thread about Mo you are welcome to.

Pretty sure the amount mo Farah threads/post greatly out number threads/post about Callum Hawkins. And the sjw on this thread making it about race missed the point. It's a incredible time Callum ran, especially factoring in that he trained through it.

Maybe if mo farah and other runners were more open about their training. We would see more threads like this.

Um. I personally am interested in Hawkins much more than I am in some douche that "trains" in east Africa.

Great to hear Hawkins ran such a great time during a period of heavy training.

Was this the fastest non cheater 4% time of the race?

Which brings me to another, why aren't more Americans running sub 2:10? It's due to a lack of mileage.

The more salient point in this crazy thread perhaps is, why didn't his mileage stop him from collapse at the 2018 Comm Games?

Heat is what stop him at the 2018 Commonwealth games.

OP here, the reason why I started this thread was because I was trying to find out the results of the top finishers. In trying to find this info, I found a article where he said he ran a 140 miles the week before. So to run such a time like he did while training through it is noteworthy. If I found a article about Mo Farah or the second or third place finisher saying something similar, I would've posted that too.

Looks good for Callum for Doha. Who are his main challengers for the marathon there? What are his chances for gold? A medal?

Yes, he "said" that he ran 140 miles the week before, but that doesn't mean that he really did.

Elites like to fib as well as hobby joggers like yourself.
