Clarify
editThe article has this sentence in it currently -- which doesn't make any sense! "In 2007, he ran 13 marathons (not including ultra-marathons), and seven marathons in a span of nine weeks (winning three)." Rman888 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 14:33, 16 January 2012 (UTC).
- I can see how it could be confusing, but it's saying that he ran 13 26.2 mile marathons total in the year. In a 9 week span he ran 7 marathons, and won 2 of them. --CutOffTies (talk) 19:02, 6 February 2012 (UTC)
Validity of 5k PR
editThe article currently lists Mr. Wardian's 5k PR as 13:16. This time is far, far superior to all of his other times, and in my opinion highly implausible. I suggest that this PR be removed from the article, or even more ideally replaced by a legitimate 5k PR, unless it can be shown that this course was USATF certified in 2011. Tstelzig (talk) 19:20, 22 June 2015 (UTC)
Okay, I've discovered that the full results of the race where Mr. Wardian ran 13:16 state that "Due to Course Flooding on Hains Point, Course was changed to 2.65Miles; Mile Pace is based on 2.65Miles". In light of this it clear to me that the 5k PR needs to be revised. I checked Mike's personal webpage, and the fastest time it lists is 16:25 at the Ivy 5k in 2013. However, Mike's Athlinks page lists a bunch of 5k's faster than that. The fastest (besides the illegitimate 13:16) is a 15:09, from 2004. I am not sure whether that course was certified or not - does anyone know how to find out? And should someone go ahead and revise the 5k PR to 15:09 in the meantime?
