Marathon target time

A friend has made enormous progress in his running and had a stated target of 3:30 for London this year.

He is also a huge user of SM, numerous posts everyday about every aspect of his life. One of those people who appears to have a perfect life, but you wonder who he's trying to convince.

Anyway, he did 3:30:52 which is an amazing time. However, he's posted everywhere about how thrilled he is to have "smashed" 3:30. Which he didn't. It's a great time and I'm sure he would have got it in another race, London isn't a place for PBs for the masses because of the congestion, but actually he missed his target!

It doesn't matter in the scheme of things, and if it makes him happy etc, but it is weirdly annoying 😆

You sound so jealous. Perhaps focus on yourself instead
