Marathon and may have set a Guinness record.
By Kurt Streeter, Los Angeles Times
March 21, 2011
After slowly but steadily working his way through a 26.2-mile course
drenched by driving rain, mammoth distance runner Kelly Gneiting finished
Sunday's Los Angeles Marathon in nine hours, 48 minutes and 52 seconds,
probably establishing a Guinness world record for someone his size.
"I did it, but it was hell," Gneiting, 40, said, shortly after crossing the
finish line in Santa Monica. "Pure hell." Featured in a Times profile last
week, Gneiting is a former national champion sumo wrestler with a 60-inch
waist who weighed in just before the race at 400 pounds.
Gneiting completed the marathon by jogging and walking and said there were
several times when he feared he wouldn't finish, particularly when his rain-
soaked feet developed terrible blisters.
"My feet were on fire," he said. "Twice, blisters popped and just about
brought me to my knees.... But I kept going."
Despite his slow pace, Gneiting accomplished his two main goals. He improved
his time from the only other race he entered, the 2008 L.A. Marathon, which
he completed in 11 hours, 48 minutes and 16 seconds.
He also appears to have set a Guinness world record for heaviest person to
complete a marathon. Guinness representatives must review Gneiting's results
before certifying the record. | b***i
