Fair play HIAG ramps up the bullshit when he's been exposed, but that's just him pretending it's what he intended all along. He doesn't start out posting 'I ran a marathon' as a wind up to get a reaction. (Why would anyone think that is controversial ?) because he initially gets very angry when somebody calls him out. It's only when he's backed himself into a corner and he knows he's been done, that he'll come with the claim 'Oh look, I've got them on the end of my hook - I only did it as a wind up'
^^This we all bullshit a tad but defending it after the fact is plain stupid. I lied when I said I was going to Mars but it was actually Venus.
No, it's definitely one of your better ideas.Don't let doubt set in now. Try and do the full 26+ miles with a lit spliff continually on the go, perhaps taking a swig of rum every 100 strides or so. Don't think anyone's done that yet.
I'm gonna go one better than @remembercolinlee and complete a marathon using only my lips to drag myself along.
I'm probably more likely to complete it like that tbh. One of my major concerns is having to do it straight.I
My diet was very simple. I could each as much fruit and veg as I liked, along with fish and chicken. Nuts and brown rice, too. Out went the following:- sweets cakes sugar potatoes red meat diary diary products flour products (such as bread and pastries) anything fried alcohol It's a very easy diet to follow, because you can eat when you want and as much as you want, provided you don't eat anything on the excluded list. If you don't cut out alcohol, you will struggle over 6 weeks. After 6 weeks, I went back to how I used to be, albeit that I lost my appetite for most of the crap that I used to eat.
Or the 2nd. 3rd should be a ****ing doddle tbh. You'll be ready for the daddy of them all the IOW one by then
They call the IOW marathon 'The race that all Marathoners fear' Or was it the San Francisco marathon they call that ? Apart from the year HIAG ran it, because they ironed out all the hills.
What HIAG hasn't mentioned is that he ate 28 chickens per day, along with 50kg of fish and a bath full of brown rice.
Marvellous idea Tiny T 'How I bullshitted my way to lose 4 stone in six months despite giving up cigarettes and became a Rock God, Lawyer, Cambridge Graduate, Marathon Runner, Professional Photographer, Iron man and a Helicopter Pilot. Sure to be a best seller'.
I didn't experience any significant loss over that time - about half a stone. After 6 weeks, I had regained a lot of fitness. Not only was I running harder and faster, but I was going out for about twice as long, plus one extra day. After 6 weeks, I began to shed weight, and continued doing so for the next couple of months, after which it slowed again, but by then I had lost around 4 stone.
