It only took me about two days to realize that Jenny Simpson is/was Jenny Barringer.
I thought Jenny Simpson was some English runner. Then I watched the Flotrack interview and it all came together. I don't know why everyone is saying "Jenny Simpson" like people should know who the hell they're talking about.
Incidentally, the men's world record was 4:28 in 1868 and held by Walter Gibbs of England.

Ritz To Run London Marathon - Everyone Delighted
"I am delighted to be returning to London," said Ritzenhein, who was fourth in last year's Great North Run.http://www.virginlondonmarathon.com/news-and-media/news-and-media/press-release-10-01-11-ritz-lead-us-challenge-virg/
Virgin London Marathon race director David Bedford welcomed his new signings, saying:
"I am delighted Dathan will be running the London Marathon again this year."
Nobby Speaks
So, one thing I had hoped would happen with the Brian Sheriff story was that people would get upset. When people get upset, things happen.
Different people will get upset for different reasons. Nobby was none to pleased with how he was portrayed in this "one sided" story.
As I had stated before, I contacted Nobby for comment via email and phone, which resulted only in a voicemail message which I shared his sentiments from that. He never responded to my email or return calls.
Well, he has emailed me now, a few times, threatening legal action and demanding apology.
I don't think I owe him an apology, I'm just sharing Brian's story. I did offer, again, to hear his side of the story and share that. He has now done that.
Nobby's side of the story is that Brian never sent him ANY evidence. Nobby never contacted Mazda because Brian never gave him evidence, and that he would, "never simply call up Mazda to meet with their head-huncho when I don't have ANY evidence, which I asked Brian to give me but never received." He went on to say, "now I am actually more curious to find out more about just what had happened. I do have a friend who used to run for Mazda. I never even gotten around to actually talk to him but I've been calling him to see if I can get other side of the story. If this actually comes out that Brian is correct and Mazda is the evil empire, I still have the intention to help him."
So there you have that.
My intention was/and is not to make anyone look bad, and the story was to be rounded out with the notion that I have no idea who is lying and who is telling the truth. I'm just trying to tell the story. I don't have ALL the info. I'm doing what I can. There are more people(two) calling Brian a liar than the other way around, so far. I would like for the truth to be exposed at some point and it seems things are possibly heading in that direction.
If anyone with any insight to this story is reading, please email me Phil@presmustache.com.
And if you're wondering what happened to part Four of the story, it's coming. My laptop has been out of commission for a week, but I am back in business. Cheers.
