Hobie Call, Would-Be Sub-2:00 Marathoner (Runner’s World)

This is a fascinating read, though I don’t personally believe 2 hours will be broken in the marathon in my lifetime. There are some who are calling Hobie “innovative” or “thinking outside the box,” while others say he is out of his mind and only doing this for publicity.

What do you think? If you had unlimited disposable money would you sponsor Hobie in this effort? Will 2 hours ever be broken in the marathon?
