• Keep, he's a running genius. <g> Article is/was a mess but he's notable. I added NYT and Runners' World. Will come back to this if time allows during the AfD. If I don't, can closer please draftify this for me? I can clean it up. Star Mississippi 03:01, 26 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep - material provided by Star Mississippi above seems to push things into the notable side. Tony Fox (arf!) 05:05, 1 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep The subject is notable and sources added would establish/have established that. Maybe the lead and wording can be fixed to highlight why he is notable rather than what he has done most recently. IrishOsita (talk) 02:59, 3 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
