I've got 2 marathon runners on my facebook. One male one female.
They are always talking about their marathon runs, trying to sound humble, but you can tell they are fishing for attention.
Then of course all their friends say "Oh you're so amazing." "Keep it up, you're an inspiration." " Wow that is so impressive".......
Whatever. These people are just fucking running. And most of them are probably only doing it for the attention whoring aspect and the compliments they get from others.
I'm sure some marathon runners are cool. Almost all the one's I meet are douches though. Doing it just for bragging rights.
-
I concur.
-
Just leave them hanging....I hate people fishing for compliments.
-
I hate them.
-
I'm not on your facebook page...lol
I guess you're right some of them do.
-
whats your facebook adress?
-
I will say this if I ran marathons in under 3 hours, ya damn skippy I'd be boosting about it
-
A Facebook user calling out runners!? Clash of the titans.
-
Honestly, running a marathon is incredibly hard. They should brag if they want. I'd need one of those tin foil blankets and a med flight after running 5 miles.

it isn't easy for sure. Only 1 percent of american run a marathon.

I don't think I'd be able to run a mile without stopping to gasp for air.

This brings up an interesting point. How much running of training of any kind is too much? Yes of course, some training is good, coz if it is done correctly then it will improve one's level of condition and health. But if it is not done correctly, or even worse if it is overdone, it won't lead to an improved level of health, looks, and/or condition. Dr. Ken Cooper of The Aerobic Institute in Dallas used to say "Train, train, and train even more" or something to this effect. But a few years back he recanted this statement and said something like this, "Anyone who trains for more than 1 hour weekly isn't training for health and fitness purposes"

One could say the same thing about bodybuilders. Enjoy life, do what you like.

Marathon...nice.
Try kicking ass for 20 years in a gym, then come talk to me....oh, with no drugs either.
BOOM!
-
If someone actually runs a marathon in a decent time and wants to boast about on Facebook or whatever then great, knock yourself out that's pretty impressive. What I can't stand are the people that post their mundane workouts nearly every day. "Just ran three miles to the gym!" Big fucking deal.

let's see you run 26.2 miles. It isn't fucking easy

Let's see a marathon runner gain 50lbs of muscle, impossible with all the running.
Catch 22. ;D

People who are superior have the right to brag. Just look at me...

why are you such a douchemaster? you're always on here spewing your shit. "3 kit kats a week, 4 pushups, and 1 mile of running a year is optimal for getting ripped".
no it isn't asshole. why don't you post a pic of your achievements?

Do you mean 20 years in a row with no drugs or just 20 years in general (which means you can just minus that 3-4 months on gear instead of starting again) ;D

Try doing it for 30+ naturally and then come see me.
You are probably one of the handful of people here who still will be training in a decade. ....the rest of these dicks will get a real job or have a baby...and then whine "they don't have the time anymore"

I accidentally happened upon a shit ton of marathon runners in Santa Monica last summer. They all looked like a bunch of attention whoring dick holes. I wanted to kick them in their fucking faces but somehow I resisted. It's obvious that a lot of these douchbags think pretty highly of themselves. Real gangster ass motha fuckas like me don't run for nothin or nobody. Fuck these people.
-

Exactly, pretentious mother fuckers, unhappy with their life always putting someone else down, to make themselves feel better. I see this all the time. I can't stand even being in the same room with a negative, worthless puke like this.
-
this thread is a bit retarded. Same could be said about everyone but marathon runners.
Who s not desperate for atention, compliments noawadays in our individualistic, hedonist societies?
people all think they re special, unique, while imitating the same role models over and over, all looking like clones of clones.

The only place I've lived that was like this was Massachusetts.

I know i'm adding more fuel to the fire but I really hate this gimmick

facebook = fagbook

I've trained and ran 2 marathons and I've done figure competitions. Make no fucking mistake doing the figure competition prep is WAY harder than training/running for a fucking marathon.
And this is figure...imagine bodybuilding.
you're not a woman
-
Of course I'm not. Because no real women would post here on Getbig....right?
exactly
and if you did compete in figure competitions, chances are you're still not a "real" woman
-

Depends
is your penoris bigger than my penis? ???

I've never ran a marathon. But I used to be capable of riding a bicycle a 50 miles per day no problem. I was in great cardio condition and I could just ride for hours at a good speed, similar to a marathon runner.
I didn't go around bragging about it though and seeking attention for it. Because to me it didn't seem like a big deal. Wow..... i'm in good cardio condition. Give me a fucking pat on the back, it's amazing.
Know what I mean?
-
I'm sorry to break it to ya blackflag, but cycling is a cake walk compared to running, it's not even close man. And notice, I said RUNNING not jogging
-

I've got a $100 that says it is. :D

no offense, that is completely different than running a marathon. No where near the same IMO
-

Yeah that is true. Running is hard.
I never got into running because I don't like to do shit that destroys my knees and joints. I'm sure it's not easy. But it's just funny when people are blatently fishing for compliments about it. When you boil it all down, it's just a fucking endurance run. You aren't rushing into a burning building and saving children or something like that.

picture of you holding 100$ or I'm calling bullshit on you you broke ass nigguh

pics or you're a gimmick
and don't say you don't have pics. there is no such thing as a competitive fitness girl who doesn't have photos.

You bastard
Everybody knows I'm broke

I don't need a bunch of Getbiggers Fapping to my hot comp pics. Besides....what the fuck do you think I am? An attention whore?
It didn't take long to establish that you're a gimmick

I've run 9 marathons and I'm currently planning to do Berlin in September. Never mention it outside my closest circle of friends.

Oh my God! That is so inspirational! Keep it up! Good job! You rock!
-
Yeah 50 miles on a bike is nowhere near comparable to the marathon. The cycling portion of the Ironman (long swim - long bike - marathon) is 112 miles.
-
For 26 years, my dad ran 5 miles a day minimum chasing after criminals with 22lb of police equipment on his back.
He would get home every night humbly take care of his family and never bragged once.
Still doesn't to this day.
-
I would go as far to say half the ppl on facebook are only there for the attention whoring. I also worked with a guy who was a marathon runner and also tried to be a bodybuilder. He was such a attention whore it was pathetic. He had one of the worst cases of imaginary lat syndrome I have ever seen on his massive 5'11 180 lb frame ;D
-
Huh?
"Douchbag marathon runners, desperate for compliments" ???... you dummy, it's not because they are runners, it's because they are in FACEBOOK, attention whoring at it's finest as someone said.
-
Maybe it's because i'm a little older and my friends are more mature. But on my facebook most people don't attention whore. Most of them don't even post shit, they just use it like an email, that's what I do too.

Well, most of my friends are around 20-25, so I guess it may be a little different for you... I mean, I know some people that write every little daily activity (especially girls), and some others who like to talk shit about others so i just disable their "news". Facebook is great to chat and know about friends you don't see everyday, like friends from highschool, people who moved to another city, etc. But some people really ruin facebook >:(

Marathons are OK. I've run (9) full marathons and a few years ago did the Badwater Ultra Marathon*.
*I ran it in reverse and lost the elevation and I ran it 2 months later in the year when temps were much lower. Plus I only completed the course (in reverse) I was not racing anyone and there was no cut-off time or threat of course closure. Those are HUGE differences. Huge.
My PR is 3:39:00. LA, 1989.
Pics on request.

Gayer then jogging in place while waiting to cross the street.

Some people take Facebook very seriously. I suspect they would also take Getbig very seriously.

I'm happy to report that any single one of your honorable getbig mods will be able to establish I'm not a gimmick through IP and proxy check.
Now stay on track and contribute to the discussion about douchebag marathon runners son.
Mods can't see IP's.......only Ron can. You know this.

Yes.

They need to stfu, this guy didn't brag about it:

He did something useful.
-
I know it now.
Well looks like Good ol Ronnie Boy realizes I'm not a gimmick or else I wouldn't be here now, would I.
Ronaldo quite frequently lets gimmicks go until they attack or start threatening members, you're only allowed to do that under your real account. :)

This is exactly the kind of pompous shit I'm talking about. Lets have all the runners come out pat themselves on the back. Good for you douchebags!

it isn't easy for sure. Only 1 percent of americans WANT to run a marathon.
Correction.

Correction.
Could you run a marathon, skinny?
-
Shit it takes serious motivation for me to drive 27 miles.
-
Kinda ironic that some idiot that makes $20k per year, and spends $30k per year on drugs, considers a set of leg extensions the same as "going to war" in the gym.Pot/kettle/Facebook faggotry running rampant (no pun intended).
