Stadler 23 min up on Reid at mile 2!

From Ironmanlive.com. Were the “runners” playing too much poker on the bike ?

Stadler
Sindballe 13:38
Taubert 13:38
Al-Sultan 17
Anderson 21 minutes
Widoff 22 minutes
McCormack 22:30
Reid 23

Why is it, when I’m watching Stadler run, he looks like me and Tibbs, and Khai could run with him at our 8:15 per mile half marathon pace?

Yet, it’s 5:50 per mile.

Explain that to me, Devashish.

I’m part German. I took German in college.

It not important that you and Tibbs run as fast as Norman S. You just have to “look” as fast as him. Winning is irrelevent. If you want true poser status, you must “look” fast :slight_smile:

So…what you are saying is we need to buy:

  1. A Kuota Kaliber.

  2. Orange Shoes.

  3. Learn more German.

This is doable.

Something like that. Where can I get the orange running shoes ? The KK is out of my poser purchasing power.

Last time I “raced” Norman Stadler was at the 1995 World Military Games. He finished 4th behind Hellriegel, Marceau and Gaag. I was 44th, 13 min back. Sad, but true. I did look as ripped though if that counted for anything, but I was missing the orange shoes (as was Norman).
