saw this guy yesterday for the first time .. dude can fly:
https://www.athlinks.com/athletes/141071369/results
FAST AF.
he did the 5k yesterday (it was a 5k/10k combined race), just took off @ 5:05 min/mi pace.
adarqui:
that guy who won the 10k last week, he's weird.. on FB, he posts that he wins etc, but lies about his times. I don't get it.. it's very odd. I think he's age-grading his times or something? very weird. (he's done it like 3 times since i've friended him on FB)
or maybe i'm missing something?
original post:
--- Quote ---E mais uma vez conseguir cruzar a linha de chegada em primeiro lugar geral nos 5 km. Aqui no Sul da Florida. É a terceira prova do Desafio das 8 previstas. Tempo: 16:55
Agradeço a Deus e a todos que torcem por mim.
Agora descansar porque amanhã tem mais

FB translation:
--- Quote ---And once again you can cross the finish line first overall in 5 km. Here in South Florida. It is the third proof of the 8 planned challenge. Time: 16:55
I thank god and all who cheer for me.
Now rest because tomorrow has more
--- End quote ---
all i know is both posts say 16:55..
the reason why I think he deliberately lies about his times? He doesn't post the screenshot of the times:
he cuts it off..
17:34 official 5k according to the results, which is still flying.
people are weird man. :/
Also for what it's worth, I looked up the results because I wanted to see Bryan Gonzalez's time. Young dude, going to be pretty fast I think. I've raced him a few times and wanted to see if he dropped a serious time:

people-keep-squatdr'n.
another one:
the most recent one, also says he's 75 HAHAAHAHAHAHAHAAHAAH

in legit local runner news, the guy that organizes the Loco Rio track workouts/long runs got 2nd OA at this big 10 miler today:
http://accuchip.racetecresults.com/Results.aspx?CId=16337&RId=210
59:45 @ 49 years old...... he beat some LEGIT people. pretty interesting. He's been on an absolute steam roll since November 2017.
Also what's funny is, he's the guy that kind of dislikes my race strategy etc but seems to be coming around to it a bit more... so, he said he wanted to go out at ~6:15 pace for this race, but there were so many good people there that it forced him to go out at 5:5X LMFAO. So uh......... they forced you to go hard huh? and you did? and you dropped an insane performance?? ... gj. lol.
dude is legit tho, from 5k upwards.. apparently his 15k today would have got him top3 in the florida 15k championships for 45-49 or something. He's going to be a monster at 50+, could end up being one of the top dudes in the state or who knows, maybe bigger.
He hit a 17:32 5k recently but he started out at like 6:00 pace & ended with like a 5:26 mile.. he does the most insane negative splits. I def think he's a sub17 5k, sub36 10k, sub1:20 half guy. Probably could drop a sub5 mile too if he stopped thinking he was "slow". People are so weird. lmao.
but ya, we don't see eye to eye for the most part but, mad respect. dude is on a tear.
adarqui:
This guy used to tear it up around here .. one of the rare sub5 split guys for 5k's.
