As someone that ran track in HS, I can't even fathom running 26.2 miles. Not for fun anyway.

He's feeling it now. Not in a good way. Pace now over 10. Can he break 5?

It's gonna get tougher. We have a former cheerleader who was right at 8:00 miles through 25K. Then 8:25/mi for 25-30K and 9:45/mi for 30-35K. Those hills towards the end are legendary.

Those last two splits don't exemplify STRAIN. But that's ok, my fat *** is typing on a computer and drinking a coke.

The hills towards the end of Boston are legendary. It's an extremely tough course. Mullen looking great through 40K and only has a mile or two to go.

He just broke 4:30 in his first marathon at Boston. Not too shabby.

safe travels back to Ann Arbor, Coach.

Got him listed from Michigan (MI). Marvelous.

The other MSU or just the state?

Saw where he did really well ... 4:28. And that's very admirable. He was running sub-10 minute miles. Any dude that can do that in his 40s has my respect. Hope he doesn't suffer any ill effects. And I also hope he keeps his exercise regimen up ... the new svelte Dan Mullen looks much better and healthier.

Saw the clip of him crossing the line on the Book of faces. I swear that's him yelling a guttural, "yaaaaaagh!"
