One of the local radio personalities, Lunchbox, is running a marathon this morning with ZERO training.
He’s not just trying to finish, but trying to beat his co-worker’s marathon time of 4:45. He saw people running this past weekend at Livestrong that he knows he could beat, so he decided today he’d tackle 26.2. I think he even used the word easy.

Thoughts?
Personally I don’t think he’ll make it the whole way through, but that’s just me. If the physical strain doesn’t get him, the mental will.
He is doing it! CRAZY!
Wow!! I’m with you, between the physical and mental components, he may finish, but I doubt he’d beat that time if he hasn’t trained at all!
I finished a marathon with little training and it earned me a hairline fracture and a bummed ankle. I would never do it again! I imagine LB is hurting fiercely today.
I am interested to hear how it went. Was he able to finish and if so, what was his time?
He finished, but I don’t know the details yet, I will have to chase them down. he actually ran 27.2 miles
