" . . . was still more than a quarter of an hour slower than the 3:18:50 he had clocked on earth as a keen, ultra-fit fun runner back in 1999."
Pretty sure that's too much of a gap to indicate any causation of environment on his performance -- too bad.
If he ran sub-2 would it have been a "world record"?

So, does that make it a "near world record?"
