Darby Allin has completed the New York City Marathon, just days before he is set to compete in Blood and Guts. The AEW star finished the 26.2 mile race with no training, according to reports.
Allin took part in the marathon on November 2, finishing with a time of 4 hours, 51 minutes, and 58 seconds. He shared his achievement on social media, posting a photo of his medal and a screenshot of his race time. Allin is known for his extreme stunts and his love of skateboarding, but running a marathon with no training is a new level of endurance even for him.
The timing is remarkable. Allin is set to compete in Blood and Guts on the November 4 episode of AEW Dynamite, just two days after the marathon. Blood and Guts is AEW’s version of WarGames, a brutal double cage match that is one of the most physically demanding matches in wrestling. Allin will be part of the match, which will see his team take on a rival faction in a violent, high stakes encounter.
Allin’s marathon run comes after a busy period for the former TNT Champion. He recently returned from a trip to Mount Everest, where he attempted to climb the world’s highest peak. He has also been involved in a number of high profile matches in AEW, including a recent bout with Jon Moxley.
What is confirmed is that Allin completed the New York City Marathon on November 2 and is scheduled to compete in Blood and Guts on November 4. What is not confirmed is how his marathon run will affect his performance in the match, or if he will suffer any injuries as a result.
