Clearly Oprah’s worried — she’s quitting her talk show, probably so she can train for the next marathon.
So I was talking to a friend just now, and on the topic of fitness she said, “Did you know that Oprah ran a marathon in four and a half hours?” And I’m like, “No, that’s not possible. Are you sure that’s not her half marathon time?” She assured me that it was true and I’m all I HAVE A COMPUTER I AM LOOKING THIS UP RIGHT NOW.
It’s true. 4:29:20. So now I have a new life goal: BEAT OPRAH. And be a lot less like Al Gore, who finished closer to my actual time (just under five hours).* ** ***
*Note 1: May I remind you, it was close to 80 degrees with 80% humidity that day.
**Note 2: I still ran faster than Sven Suungaard, which counts for something.
***Note 3: How did I not know this until TODAY? Looking further down the very simple google search, there’s a nice snotty article from two years ago on how Oprah ruined the marathon. Because as well all know, runners ain’t runners if they run slow. Uh huh. Sure.
