The Seth Demoor (YouTube personality) virtual race series is currently ongoing, I don’t know if you real runners of the LRC fallow that short of thing, but I wonder what kinds of times are going to be put up across the world. What are the winning times going to be for each distance? (5,10,21,42k) What will seths time be for the marathon??
Here are my predictions:
5k. 16:32
10k. 33:15
Half: 1:14.21
Full: 2:23.34 by Seth Demoor FTW
2:28 if going the actual distance. 2:16 using his strava cheats.
Just curious, what is a strava cheat? How does that work? How can someone cheat a virtual marathon? Asking for a friend

I'm guessing he doesn't learn his lesson and has a big positive split again.
Predicting lots of positivity
2:58:12
Note to self: don't run 50 miles a week before a goal Marathon.
Didn't Seth run a 1:07 or 1:08 half TT (slight downhill but still). I would suspect a 2:22 Full, 1:07 half, 15:30 5K, 32:00 10K
wow. Ok he threw in the towel on this one. How do you race 1:07 and then race 2:58?? I just hope that he didnt wear alphaflys for this. I totally get that he ran 50 miles last week, good for him, he did a lot of good, but if he was really trashed going into today, he should have owned up to that and dropped out or dropped distance

Drop out? Why? Dude is promoting positivity in a shîtty period.

Exactly.
For the record, he said his legs were dead by six miles because of the 50 Miler and by halfway he was just concentrating on his form and trying to finish in honor of the 2,000 plus people running the virtual races.
Slow time it not, the curious George in me wonders why he conveniently didn't record this run fully? Hmmm.
There's also the '1.07' half where he has multiple go pro footage of himself running along the route, when it was just him there...hmmmm.
He said he was wearing alphaflys also why would he cheat on the half if it’s not even really faster than his first half of his European full. Sounds like his legs were just shot.
What a great guy. Heart of gold. Getting out there a motivating folks. Can't wait to see what he does next.
Seth's Half-Marathon split at Amsterdam already beats 1:07 -- Link:
https://results.sporthive.com/events/6589788263981649920/races/452732/bib/411
-- he just needs to hit 1:09 - 1:08 next good attempt at sea level with a few more months of focused and injury-free training.
Running slight downhill alone at elevation after returning from overuse is fine at 1:07, but not what he's fully capable of in a race setting if he can go without injury for a prolonged period.
But he has a bad habit of picking the wrong races to run his hardest. NY Marathon soon after Amsterdam should have been a jog, but he ran close to his first marathon time there, too, which clearly led to the overuse injury. 50-miler the week before a Marathon TT is asking for more overuse injuries again.
2024 Olympic Trial time will be tougher since by then the Ultravaporfly Alphanext Twenty% will be out and people will be running 1:40 or better and mutant bat-human hybrids from COVID-23 will be out there run-flying in full force.

Do you listen to yourself talk? Because the stupidity flows deep from within you.
The winner ran 2:15.
HM winner ran 1:04.
A lot of fast runners ended up doing this virtual race!!!
Ok Robin Thicc's first three paragraphs had facts and reasonable projections and the fourth was goofy, are we sure it isn't Seth? Also curious about what you meant by Strava cheats
Strava Cheat: use a miscalibrated foot pod for distance instead of GPS.
