Slowtwitch Forums- Fin Man vs Kip Litton

the pattern

1. Large differences between net time and gun/clock time(sometimes even greater than the last place finishers)

2. Race photographers' pictures of Dr. Litton are usually all close to the finish line with none at other points along the course where other runners appear

3. Unusual pace changes between course checkpoints/timing mats

4. Other runners he finishes near do not recall seeing him

5. different outfits: e.g. @ Cox Providence Marathon a different pair of shoes...@Shamrock coat and pants came off...@Boston pants off, new cap

"This issue of Kip somehow 'plowing' through vast fields of entrants after starting with a delay has been in the backround throughout the discussion. Thanks for pointing out just how absurd this concept is. Certainly the 'flag'for his deceptive ways has been his gun/chip differential. Unless the guy has powers of levitation, some/most of his supposed racing feats are not humanly possible, no matter of his fitness."
