But knowing him, he'll write up some pathetic excuse for his performance saying that he failed but his method is still the best in the fucking world, similar to what his partner Methcalves wrote up after he dropped out of the Javalina 100.
Looks like prayers and predictions were answered. \:D/

The hip and shoe thing I declare bullshit on, especially on a 4-hour road run. His past experience crewing someone at Badwater should have been a guide. Run on hot asphalt, then you run on the damn white line to prevent the shoes from melting AND you have a few pairs of shoes in case a pair falls apart. The hip problem should have manifested itself either in doing exercises that are hip-driven or as Quack Attack said, during an LSD run. At minimum, doing some LSD work would have allowed his ass to adapt to the discomfort, POSE or no POSE running.

Best guess on the distance he covered before BMacNCheeze turned into Velveeta and oozed all over the Death Valley Basin was probably the minimum @FE limit of 13.1 but he probably hit closer to 16 unless he pissed away a good amount of time trying not to overheat.

I wonder if anyone is going to ask for a refund on the @FE cert now?

Good thing he spent a few hundred (or did he say a grand? I don't remember) on that personal sauna.

Also, relating to an earlier post.

There's no way in hell Greg's going to let loose the reins of the XF mothership unless he's moving on to something else. The man really enjoys the shit out of his creation and lecturing about it, boozin' it up, and getting strange.

Wait, you estimate that he hit 16 miles in 4 hours? If you're correct, that's absolutely pathetic. That means he was running a 15-minute mile, moving just 33% faster than your average fat-ass out-of-shape human (average walking speed per Wikipedia, 3 miles per hour). I hope for the love of humanity, he covered more than 16 miles in 4 hours. Shit, I can walk 16 miles in 4 hours while whistling Dixie.

Let's be serious here. Running through Death Valley on pace to cover 40-something miles is going to be slow, even if you're trained for it. Yes, the average guy can walk 15 minute miles on flat ground in comfortable conditions. But throw in elevation, extreme temperature, and the fatigue that comes after walking for an hour (have you ever brisk walked for an hour straight?), and the average dude would not be able to do that.

All that said, the hubris this guy has is astounding. It's even worse in person. I don't think it would be so bad if he just came out and said "in light of our failures/disappointments, we might have to change how we train." But he doesn't. I'm all for trying new things and whatever, but when something fails to work time and time again ... isn't that time to move on to something that works?

If you give and assfitter shit about couch being fat or b-mac dnf'ing everything they start yelling about Pat Riley and Bill Belichick!! I will point out that those guys coached actual champions in actual sports and get called an asshole as I'm leaving

Isn't Jay Ashman on the outs anyway?

I believe he may be mutual friends with some of our cohorts here.

I've been hearing rumblings recently that @fit HQ is a bit tired of getting it's ass handed to it by @fit Foosball. They seem to be losing more and more recruits to the young upstart and they just aren't real comfortable with it.
Ashman is good people. He's a strong dude who sipped a bit of kool aid before coming back to his senses.

Re: B-Mac...I don't know why they don't put Dirt Diva or Shari Baby in charge of the endurance shit. They compete, finish, WIN, and take nekkid pictures of themselves. Instead, they prop up this self-absorbed, painted tool who hits the wall harder than Dale Earnhardt every time he runs more than 10K.

What? You mean that injury shit like that still happens when on a diet of POSE running and living off of intervals & time-trial runs. Say it ain't so! ](*,)

Looks like BitchMac is going to semi-retire from running for the next six months and will go paddling. He'll probably ruin that for the surfing community and make a surfing/paddling cert with the Couch's blessing.
