Did anyone else read about Nike's attempt to have
someone break the 2hour wall for the Marathon?
Anyone care to discuss?

I fear there's only me and thee lurking here. ;-)
I didn't see it but would acknowledge that it was an amazing achievement,
but, bears little relationship to road race times. The presence of pacers
and a car (with a *massive* clock) providing a bit of a windbreak for the
whole run just shows how hard Nike expected it to be.
Consequently it revealed zero about what influence Nike shoes had to the
time.
