Ive had my garmin do so weird stuff with heart rate The wrist tracker can be really inaccurate at times however distance and pace is always pretty accurate If your garmin shows an uninterrupted segment at 30 miles per hour uou are definately not running Although when swimming with it doing laps during training in the pool recently my watch data showed me swimming 100m repeats at around 1:20 which i can do However some instantaneous rates showed 0:40 seconds for the same distance About 7 seconds under world record pace ,i showed my training mates this we had a good laugh 😂😂
All men are guilty of sin. Repentance means to turn away from your sin. For example, if you are a liar you stop lying. Repenting is not just saying sorry, it is saying sorry and not continuing to do that sin. Sin is what separates us from God. God sent his son Jesus to die for our sins. Meaning Jesus took the punishment for our sins on the cross. If we believe on Jesus our sins can be washed away, and God will remember them no more. If we reject the son of God and continue in sin we will be under Gods wrath(hell fire). Repent today and believe on Jesus Christ, and recieve the free gift of eternal life.

I've run over a hundred competitive races in my life. There is no way this guy could pass the third place without the third place knowing. That by itself is the end of his charade. The fact there are so many other bits of evidence against him makes his bald-faced contention frankly embarrassing. He should be banned for life.
His lies are bad too. “A Garmin doesn’t work on a bus.” That’s hilarious. I owned a Garmin for years that I kept in my car (car = bus) for navigation. It’s what they’re designed for. I guess some people get away with things through sheer denial regardless of how outrageous their claims are
Yes, my soon to be ex. She can easily convince herself, she repeats a lie over and over as if practising her story and by the end, I swear to god that she can’t tell the lie from the truth.
Running a marathon on a soft treadmill with fresh legs and no air resistance is very different to running a marathon on an actual course after just doing an all out 10k race. Fact is, he was 4 minutes behind at half way mark. So to take third he would have had to really pick up his pace and his Garmin data shows no such thing (apart from going 30mph at the very end).
Jesus offers salvation, peace, and hope to all who call on him. If you have heavy burdens, Jesus will carry them for you. No matter the pain and suffering you have been through in life, trust in Jesus for a brighter tomorrow. He will never leave you nor forsake you.
Lance Armstrong denied for years that he had taken drugs, only to eventually admit that he had done so. I don't believe a word that man says any more, including that he had once walked on the moon.
A Garmin will work on a bus but they won't go 'haywire' and register 30 mph unless its traveled at 30 mph. How a daft little lie can escalate. Silly man. Daft thing is he's a good runner.
He literally gave away the fact that he was on a bus. The Garmin records him at 30Mph at the end, haha. Dude my Garmin records my speed wherever I go. Bus, Train, Cycle or indeed running.
In short, Hopping on a bus or running on a road cover with trees is not enough to interfere with the signal made with data receivers that tract speed or cadence ect.
Tell me about it. Nothing annoys me more than someone trying to sell something with bullshit evidence. He should just admit he cheated and move on. He's only shaming himself even more than he already did.
They also work on helicopters... Was on RunJunkees and a guy on there collapsed at the finish line, they airlifted him without turning off his garmin and he posted it to the group.
Yeah, I remember him too. He was a pretty average runner back then too, until he got within a mile or two of the finish line and then flames shot out of his arse and you should see him go. Even the fire engine had trouble catching him up.
The Garmin went haywire because he got on the bus. A cheat and a liar. He's not raced since running 20 miles of that race. Pity as he's done 78 mins for 1/2 marathon which is respectable and he could go under 3 for the marathon
How do I get to heaven? Will my good deeds be measured against my bad deeds? Do I need to be a good person to go to heaven? How do I know if I'm good enough? Well the bible says no man is good, for all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. So how do we get to heaven? Answer: By believing on Jesus Christ who took the punishment for our sin on the cross. There are no amount of good works we can do to achieve salvation because salvation is a free gift of God. We need to humble ourselves, realize we are sinners and that we need a savior. John 3:16 For God so loved the world that He gave his only son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.
He's trying to prove he can run the distance. Which i'm sure he can do. It's just 3:07:00 which is quiet a difference from his 2:51:00 time from the Kielder Marathon. His split pace differed from 6:31 too 7:08 per mile. it doesn't prove anything though. I'd like to see what his split's were before the tracker went "Haywire". Cairne's pace was 6:40 per mile.
Amy I'd say its psychologically harder to run long distances on the treadmill compared to outside, atleast i find it way harder to distract myself from the pain on the treadmill
Almost cruel to ask this guy. I do not for a moment think he believes his nonsense, but he seems to believe others will. He is/was probably a decent club runner but dreadful at cheating and worse at lying. Have a wry smile and forget about him. Shitty for the guy who was later awarded 3rd place. Being on the podium is a special feeling.
Here's the sad part. If that guy ran 3:07 on a treadmill he probably was capable of running near the time he would have had to run to get 3rd in that race. A garmin would register in a vehicle and it looks like it proves he cheated. Usain Bolt doesn't run 30 mph.
The course has some uphills and turns, plus the outdoor elements that runners have to battle with. I think these factors will add at least 20mins to his finish time.
3.07 wouldn't have him in the top 10 for the race (even without all the hills on that course), which is ironically pretty much where he was when he stepped off the course.
His Garmin would've tracked his route, too: if the marathon route wasn't identical to the bus route at that point, any cheating should be pretty easy to prove or disprove by looking at that. Not that I need it to make up my mind! Funny that he doesn't resort to it, either... 😂
I remember when I did school cross country all the chavs that had been smoking since they were 12 used to run across a great big field we were supposed to go around! But this takes the biscuit, hilarious!
Garmins do work on buses, another massive lie forgotten many times to stop watch at end of a race/run, jumped in the car and then clocked the entire journey home.
Why would all those people say he was on bus. It was obvious he cheated. He made himself look like an idiot in this denying what he clearly did. Those witnesses had no reason to say he was on the bus if he wasn't.
this inadvertantly happened to me in the Snowdon marathon once, I retired, as I was not fit enough to beat my previous and had run myself out of energy trying and must have set a time when I was clapping other runners whilst near the barriers at the finish line at some point after being dropped off by the broom wagon. I didn't realise until the results came out and could not find my dnf. Was still a crap time even with motor assist, as I must have had a coffee or something before going near the finish line with the chip still on. This sort of thing must happen quite often, whether by ignorance or design, but I guess the runners are rarely in the top 3 or just admit to the mistake.
I genuinely feel sorry for this guy. At 23 miles your brain isn't working normally at all, especially if you're having a bad race and/or are injured. I think the reporter is exactly right and that he finished third by accident. He looks guilty crossing the finish line and he sounds guilty in his interview. He's living with this guilt/shame and for whatever reason doesn't feel like he can come forward and admit to the lies. He's proven that he's a good runner and I hope he was able to overcome this and clear his conscious and isn't continuing to live with this.
I don't feel sorry for him at all I pity him, though I've run 12 marathons and 3 short ultras Ive felt the pain and had that fried feeling after 20 miles a few times where you are not quite thinking straight however you still know what you are doing and never have I thought for a second " oh I can't make it so I'll hop on a bus and finish the race
I ran the same race that day, first of many marathons/ultras, was in a bad way for the final 4 miles but finished in 4 hours.....Since then I have run 100 milers a number of times which has involved no sleep for over 30 hours and hallucinations...You don't do this by accident, all he had to do was say it was a mistake and laugh it off. Instead he took the place on the podium, did TV interviews and to this day, over a decade later he continues to deny it.
Kielder is a really hilly course and very tough going. I dont think the treadmill would replicate those conditions. In all probability you'd have to add 10 to 15 minutes on top of a runners marathon flat road pace when you're talking about completing Kielder.
Sloan's story immediately falls apart once you consider all the contradictions put together. *Steve Cairns is clearly well ahead of Sloan from the outset... *Cairns is 3rd at a mile and still third at 15 miles (11 miles to go). *Steve Cram witnessed Cairns in 3rd place between miles 15 and 16 (11/10 miles to go)... and then a massive gap. *At the half way point, (13.1 miles) Cairns is 3rd and Sloan 8th. A 4 minute difference which is a big gap. *At 17 miles Sloan has now fallen back to 10th place. *Two people travelling on a bus identify a man wearing a 'blue' Sunderland Harriers vest board the vehicle and this guy has lines of verse tattoed on the back of one-leg. *The driver also remembers a runner get on his bus who claimed to be injured from a 10k run the day before. *You can see Steve Cairns looking at Sloan where the latter is being interviewed and seriously wanting to 'grab him.' That one clip convinced me of the truth of this story more than anything else. *Various women raise a question mark as to the true actions of this one runner. *When tannoyed to go and have a chat he disappeared. *His own team-mate states that Sloan admitted what he had done. *His garmin went haywire in the last few miles of the race but worked fine for the rest of 20+ miles. It would be remarkable if Sunderland Harriers have two runners who are of similar build to Sloan, and who have a similar tattoo down the back of their right-leg. If they do, it should be so easy to check. Sad fact is, he seems like a decent guy and yet his reputation will now be tarnished by that one mistake he made... If he could admit it, he could clear the decks once and for all and start again.
just put a camera man at every mile with time stamps, you can check all runners, I think most cheaters just want a non place finish to stay under the radar
Just call him Rosie! 3hr 07 wouldn't rate in any marathon I ever ran. I ran raster than that back to back in the old London to Brighton years ago - and came 22nd!
Why? I just don't understand Why a) he would do it & (B) Why lie Why not admit he made a mistake anyone that's ran a marathon knows how tough it is the whole point of doing one is to run it i just don't know what to say
Treadmill marathon on the flat? That doesn’t count. Way easier. No wind no nothing. My heart bpm is 16-20% lower at any given pace and n a treadmill unless the grade is 4%. Plus, it’s much less impact and easier on the legs.
"We are pleased this matter has been cleared up," said event director Steve Cram, a former world record holder and world champion in the 1,500 meters. "Mr. Sloan made a mistake and has apologized to us for the confusion it has caused." So he apparently came clean. What a dirtbag.
Rob Sloan needs to be treated as a hero for discovering teleportation.
“My Garmin went hay-wire near the end of the race.” - Yes it clocked you at 30 miles per hour. 😂
Ive had my garmin do so weird stuff with heart rate
The wrist tracker can be really inaccurate at times however distance and pace is always pretty accurate
If your garmin shows an uninterrupted segment at 30 miles per hour uou are definately not running
Although when swimming with it doing laps during training in the pool recently my watch data showed me swimming 100m repeats at around 1:20 which i can do
However some instantaneous rates showed 0:40 seconds for the same distance
About 7 seconds under world record pace ,i showed my training mates this we had a good laugh
😂😂
Oooo
Garmin should sue.
I had a glitch on my garmin on a bike. Even in a car I’d be hard pressed to go 196KPH.
My mile pr on strava is 3:46. It says I ran that for the first mile of a long run. Watches do that some time
Rob would make a great politician. Lying and cheating come natural to him.

Because sat navs never work in cars ever
Sometimes after a hike I forget to turn my Garmin off and have to edit the car part at 50 mph.
He wrote a letter to join my old running club after this and got refused
5:00 excellent use of Shaggy
A cheater and a liar.

*At the half way point, (13.1 miles) Cairns is 3rd and Sloan 8th. A 4 minute difference which is a big gap.

*Two people travelling on a bus identify a man wearing a 'blue' Sunderland Harriers vest board the vehicle and this guy has lines of verse tattoed on the back of one-leg.
*The driver also remembers a runner get on his bus who claimed to be injured from a 10k run the day before.
*You can see Steve Cairns looking at Sloan where the latter is being interviewed and seriously wanting to 'grab him.' That one clip convinced me of the truth of this story more than anything else.
*Various women raise a question mark as to the true actions of this one runner.
*When tannoyed to go and have a chat he disappeared.
*His own team-mate states that Sloan admitted what he had done.
*His garmin went haywire in the last few miles of the race but worked fine for the rest of 20+ miles.
It would be remarkable if Sunderland Harriers have two runners who are of similar build to Sloan, and who have a similar tattoo down the back of their right-leg. If they do, it should be so easy to check. Sad fact is, he seems like a decent guy and yet his reputation will now be tarnished by that one mistake he made... If he could admit it, he could clear the decks once and for all and start again.
just put a camera man at every mile with time stamps, you can check all runners, I think most cheaters just want a non place finish to stay under the radar
Just wonder what is his employment, and what is his boss's view on his trusty worker........sure boss will now check his time card more closely :D :D
It's got "LIAR" written all over his "FACE"
With all the phones in the world, not one photo? Not even on the bus. All american buses have cameras
Just call him Rosie! 3hr 07 wouldn't rate in any marathon I ever ran. I ran raster than that back to back in the old London to Brighton years ago - and came 22nd!
hes not even a pro. why would he do that?!?!?!
He was neighbours with John Darwin
I love seeing liars getting found out.
Why? I just don't understand Why a) he would do it & (B) Why lie Why not admit he made a mistake anyone that's ran a marathon knows how tough it is the whole point of doing one is to run it i just don't know what to say
I just love stuff like this.
Garmin would work fine in a bus!
Can someone tell him that lying will make your pupils open wide. Boy his pupils are so open we could see the back of his head!!
Lies after lies and at the end he will drowned by his lies
Wanted to get his moneys worth with his busline weekly saver ticket.
That's pathetic that someone is so desperate to win.
Treadmill marathon on the flat? That doesn’t count. Way easier. No wind no nothing. My heart bpm is 16-20% lower at any given pace and n a treadmill unless the grade is 4%. Plus, it’s much less impact and easier on the legs.
GOT ON THE BUS LOL
Rob Ruiz
It was Daniel Negreanu, he had been there for a poker tournament. Have to admit they look alike.
Is this same as kielder reservoir run
Why didn’t anyone get footage of him on the bus?
Guys full crap, he cheated end of
I don’t know where Kilda is but you all sound like you should be on the show Derry Girls.
He jumped on a bus and is a good Sunderland supporter, he is a leg end in his own lunchtime.
"We are pleased this matter has been cleared up," said event director Steve Cram, a former world record holder and world champion in the 1,500 meters. "Mr. Sloan made a mistake and has apologized to us for the confusion it has caused."
So he apparently came clean. What a dirtbag.
