    It’s insane, the times keep dropping and they’re incredibly close now, a number of people are.

    Matter of time if its not in this event.

    What an effort. Hats off to him. what a pity it can't be claimed as a World record, because of the 7 pacers, but, that was something special.
    I’m pretty sure the dinosaurs died out when they stopped gathering food and started having meetings to discuss gathering food

    A bookshop is one of the only pieces of evidence we have that people are still thinking

    A good report with the reasons he could not claim a World Record. EDIT. 41 pacemakers, and a car programmed to travel at the speed necessary to make the time. Still, he had to do it.

    Watched 36000 people run fast and slow at the Melbourne Marathon today. It was a great effort by my niece for her first. Several gents had done all 42 of the 42km runs over the last 43 years Some of the 36000 ran a little to a lot less than 42km.
