That's ok. I just realized El Camino is a movie and not a series.

Yea it's a movie, it's ok if you were a fan of the series. Has some old faces.

Did you read about the Irish fella who was being buried, the attendees friends and families in tears and wailing graveside and turns out he made a pre recording that started playing when the coffin was being lowered...'Let me out..let me out..let me out' . I haven't seen the vid but THAT is living. That's how I want to go.

I do not know if people watched it over the weekend but the Ethiopian Eliud Kipchoge broke the two-hour marathon mark which was an incredible feat. He did have runners with him to keep pace, there was a green laser light which marked his pace, road markings and the conditions were good for running in Vienna. It was not classed as an official record but the fact that it was done is an amazing feat.

Yeah, that's amazing. Just finishing one of those damn things is hard enough. Averaging just over 4.6 minutes per mile is just incredibly insane.

I think they are querying his trainers to see if they gave him an unfair advantage which is ridiculous considering all the other help/aid he was getting.

Roger Bannister, when he did his under 4 minute mile, had pace makers with him so whilst it is not an official record showed that it was achievable.
