Love is the answer
the Amsterdam marathon was e few days ago here.
new track record: 2.06.18

Damn I can't wait to be in and do stuff like this
(Did read the article, title says enough tbh)
I still can't run the freaking 2.5km in 13:30 to pass the entry. Well I'm doing it on a treadmill and it's just not normal. I'm doing 11km/h which is freaking slow but for some reason I get so much more tiered on a treadmill than normal running. The only reason I use gay treadmills is I don't have any distance I know is 2.5 km I can time myself on.

Anyway, I just converted this. 26 miles is ~41 km. That's as far as I road on my bike on that long trip. Geez, no way I could run that. Walk it with a heavy pack yes but run? No way
man you really.....Bradt3hleader wrote:

you dont need to be in to run that race.
No way I'd be in shape enough unless I was in the Corps. Ever...
i couldnt run that shit when i was in. i hated running. you have to like it a lot.Bradt3hleader wrote:

What years were you in? What was your "MOS" (That's how you say it right? MOS?)
Then why don't you just use google maps and measure 2.5km on there.Bradt3hleader wrote:

That's the entry requirements. You have to shape up quick after that.
The requirements are:
1.5 miles in 13:30
2 pull ups (palms toward you)
44 sit-ups

I thought they would be much more rigorous. I'm just in decent shape and I can blow all of those out of the water...Bradt3hleader wrote:

and with pullups are we talking stretched arm --> chin above the bar? or bend arms
You should be able to run a lot faster especially with your frame. On a good day I do a mile in about 6:10-15. That's about a 3:45 per KM. (probably more like a 4:00 avg'd over a longer run)Bradt3hleader wrote:

from full extention to chin above.....unless that has changed.menzo wrote:

I have to agree with that, I mean I'm not in the peak of physical fitness (still better than I was a month or two) ago but still that strikes me as a rather easy requirement wise.Bevo wrote:
