Edward Norton's New York City Marathon Results
Edward Norton Is No. 1 In Celebs
Edward Norton did an amazing job this weekend running in the New York Marathon--he came in first amongst all the celebs who participated. This is no easy feat, and his awesome time came out of nowhere--who would've thought that he would be leading the pack, unless they were following his training with the Maasai?
Edward Norton beat out other celebrity runners like Anthony Edwards from ER and Alanis Morissette. His 26-mile race was completed in 3 hours, 48 minutes, and he was reportedly most pleased by the fact that he beat Sarah Palin's time of four hours.
Norton admitted that he wanted to "destroy that time" in reference to Sarah Palin's 4-hour mark, and he said that "I'm gonna beat Sarah Palin like a rug!"
Edward ran to support the Maasai Wilderness Conservation Trust, which helps provide esssential health services and education to the people of Kenya--and he even got to train with expert warriors before the race, where he ran on lava rocks. MTV News had previously reported that Norton would be running with Samson Parashina, a Maasai, who commented that, "We've been running over the lava rocks in Kenya [during Norton's training] — the terrain is very uneven — and he was going very well."
He wasn't modest about his achievement, calling his experience "phenomenal" when interviewed by reporters after the race. Are you impressed with Edward Norton's skills? At least he had a goal in mind when he was running! That must have helped!
