I've run several marathons and the fatter I get the tougher they are. Much respect Kelly.

That's funny, cos Gary Kirwan ran the Dublin City Marathon last week and he goes in at 450. Here's a link.  http://www.irishcentral.com/news/Irish-nation-toasts-450-pounds—Marathon-Man-as-Gary-Kirwan-crosses-line-132986883.html

Good for him but a Marathon in 10 hours is 2.6 miles an hour, I hardly call that “running”

Was he rolling?

also a world champion sumo wrestler

awesome to see him even try to do it!

Awesome! I wish I could run but I'm just lazy.

Awesome! Too bad the weight was water weight. But still, very inspirational.

A documentary on Kelly Gneiting's attempt three years earlier - http://attackmarketing.net/kelly (VIMEO link in middle of page) - shaved two hours off this time, NICE ONE, KELLY!

Only 4lbs? I think that definitively proves marathons are a waste of time.

See, you CAN have it all!

Not to be a hater, but if he finished in ten hours, he technically WALKED a marathon. But that is still pretty cool.

Awesome.

Awesome! Good job, man!
