    puts my 2:36 to shame doesn't it :o

    how realistic would it be to aim for a 1:30 half marathon? thats a 7 min mile ish

    these guys are in a whole other realm so pointless even thinking about their times in relation to real life....

    if chris's half was double that time, then that makes me feel better cause as far as i'm concerned Chris is a running machine... so it puts things into perspective....

    That would be very good. That is a good club runner time. It would take a lot of work and commitment but possible

    39 secs off course record and only 4th winning time under the hour.

    That was impressive considering he did most of it on his own!
