Lance to run Boston in April

Should be interesting. I know he really struggled with shin splints when he was training for the NY Marathon. I'm curious to see what kind of a time he can drop if he's able to avoid the same problems this time. One question; the article states he ran a 2:46 in NYC, (I remember it as him just squeaking in under 3 hours) is that 2:46 correct?

You remember the first time, not the second time.

Ok, I didn't realize he'd run it again. Do you see him doing more and more of this?

why would anyone care about Lance's amateur marathon charity-publicity events?

I bet he's being paid an appearance fee to do it, and if he likes it and can be paid, why not?

I actually expected him as a world class endurance athlete. My brother, at a considerably older age has run his times, and if I devoted myself I wouldn't be far behind.

So I'm kinda surprised Lance isn't faster. Cuz I'm nowhere near the endurance athlete he is on the bike.

I don't know, why does anyone care about bees, bass, or aTm?

This is what I'm most curious about. He has that freak physiology, so why isn't he faster? I'm curious to see how much faster he gets.

But recall that his freak phsyiology included short thighs and long calves that helped him with leverage on the bike but that didn't help him so much in running. Besides, no ome said that he was having aerobic problems runniong, just that he wasn't so fast. He was a freak for the bike, as his body was designed almost perfectly for that sport.

I know some people care about Michael Jordan's next celebrity golf tournament, and what score he will shoot. I just find such fan-ship kind of hard to fathom.

Golf and Michael Jordan are unrelated.

However, running and cycling have cross-over, so we're wondering how much cross over there is.

Lance has all the benefits to run fast, a fabulous cardiovascular system, money and time to train, and no injuries from years of running.
