Kelly Gneiting is already a marathon finisher. The multi-year American Sumo Champion's 11 hour and change effort in 2008 was not recognized for a record for the heaviest marathon finisher because it wasn't videotaped properly. So now he is entering the Los Angeles Marathon in March to become the Official Heaviest Marathoner ever. Good luck, Kelly. I think this effort, no matter the time, is quite remarkable. For perspective, try to run 26 miles carrying just half the difference between your weight and 417 pounds!
