Kim Smith : Speakers & Interviews

mark-you break her heart, i break your leg
sincerely,
male runners everywhere

From TVNZ: "she withdrew just after the 30km mark, stricken with a sore throat and having felt ill for the past few days."

Tony's right. The main reason Mark ran 2:36 is because Kim Smith said he could. The whole way he was thinking, "Can't let Kim down." What an irony that Mark ran well and Smith didn't. I hope she didn't get injured.

what happened?

DNF, just look at the official results

how did she do in the marathon? i cant find her results anywhere?!

completely off topic...hokey pokey ice cream is AMAZINGLY good

Mark will be shooting for 2:40 with all his might now that Kim predicted it. haha

hahaha mark: asks question then says "and talk louder for me." mack

So Kim Smith could conceivably own every NZ record from 1500 to marathon. WOW.

Kimmie is right!!!

NZ Women's Marathon Record - there are at least two possible answers:

2:28:17 Lorraine Moller 01 Aug 1986 Edinburgh SCO
2:26:46 Allison Roe 20 Apr 1981 Boston

Boston might not meet strict course rules for records (slight downhill and point to point), but most people would consider it counts as a NZ 'best' time if not a record.
Then there is this one...
2:25:29 Allison Roe 25 Oct 1981 New York City
http://www.alltime-athletics.com/wmarano.htm
Considered a world record at the time, but it seems the 1981 NYC marathon was later found to be a short course.
Good luck Kim.

kim - no way mark will run 2.40!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
more like 2.50
