So I just kind of blurred out like, oh, I'm going to try to win my age group in all the world marathon majors.
So Boston, New York, Chicago, Tokyo, London, Berlin.
And the first one up was Boston and I won.
I ran 230 just on.
And again, I crossed the finish line.
Oh, so cool.
230 in 20 seconds.
I couldn't find 20 seconds, but I won my age group by a lot.
By how much?
By how much?
Like five minutes.
So then I went to... No, sorry.
London was first.
I ran London and that was the world championships the first year I turned 50.
And I ran that race in 2.30 and like 50 seconds.
And I crossed the finish line and they made us... You had distinct... Three distinct...
separate start areas and at three miles they all merge together but you can't see the different start areas because there's so many people they're like in different parts of a neighborhood so they can get all the people starting at the same time so i'm standing on the start line of the age we're all in the corral together in the 50 plus age group and we have special numbers on our front and back so you can identify who you're racing within the race
So we take off and I crossed the finish line.
No one passed me.
And when it merged at the three mile mark, I'm leading my section of the London Marathon.
