Marathoner, Tina Husted wife of OH Sec of State Jon Husted sells her soul on CNN just now.

[Bushfire]

She finished the 2013 Boston Marathon in 3:01:30, but claimed she finished "several hours" before the blast. The first blast is well documented going off at 4:09:44. She was wearing her Boston Marathon yellow Adidas finisher long sleeve top, as if to advertise her status as an elite runner. Her makeup reminded me of for FL Sec of State Katherine Harris, and I knew something smelled fishy so I had to investigate when she actually finished. 3:01 is still a very good time, but not elite as CNN wants us to believe.

1. Unnn, she can't be that stupid....

[riqster]

2. Well, her hubby is a total tool

So, I mean, it might be a good match.

[Bushfire]

6. Remember when Paul Ryan misrepresented his marathon time

and got called out on it? It was the Duluth Grandma's Marathon. Any serious runner will know his/her finish time. How the hell would she not know the day after, especially if you go on national television. She has to promoting herself to get on a reality tv program I bet.

[maddezmom]

3. The bombs went off right before 3pm EST.

[Ilsa]

19. Exactly. I got my first alert from MSNBC on my iPad at 3pm EDT.

National TV coverage started around 3:15, not 4:15, EDT.

[In_The_Wind]

4. She must be very upset and misspoke.

[mathematic]

5. That's an elite or near-elite time for a master's woman

Placing 15th in her division. The race takes an hour to start, from 10 am to 11 am. She was likely closer to the 10 am start, finishing near 1 pm. The 4:09:44 is the time from the final starting wave @ 10:40 am.

There's nothing inconsistent about her story. Stop fishing, it's unseemly.

[alcibiades_mystery]

13. Thank you

I mean, honestly.

[GCP]

16. Yes

This is as bad as the freepers.

[Brickbat]

7. Good lord, who gives a shit?

[cthulu2016]

8. Good lord...that's what you've got? That's the outrage?

[Dawgs]

9. Sorry, but 3:01:30 IS elite for a woman's time.

That's sub 7:00 minute mile for 26.2 miles.

Don't disagree that she's a tool.

[Lex]

10. But she didn't finish "several hours" before the blast, which is the point. nt

[Dawgs]

11. Actually the OP had made more than one point.

I was just responding to one of them. And, I also said that I agreed she is a tool.

[Bushfire]

12. Thank you

No conspiracy theory, just a Stepford wife who had nothing to add to the investigation seeking publicity that she keeps in shape in my opinion.

[snooper2]

24. so this OP is only 78% fail then

[maddezmom]

14. Actually I think she probably did as she most likely started @9:32 or 10:20

http://bleacherreport.com/articles/1602617-boston-marathon-2013-route-start-time-date-and-tv-info
But yeah, she's still a tool.

[alcibiades_mystery]

15. If she went with the first group @ 10 am (and she well might have if she's running 3 hour Bostons)

Then she finished around 1pm. A couple of hours, several hours. This is what the OP is angry about?

[former9thward]

18. She did finish "several hours" before the blast.

Please do the math.

[Lex]

26. Do you know what time she started?

Or are you guessing?

[former9thward]

27. The elite women started at 9:32 am

Which means she finished in the area of 12:30 pm. Since you are making some charge do you have different information?

[uppityperson]

34. There you go throwing FACTS out to SHOW SHE STARTED & FINISHED EARLIER than the main pack

sorry for the yell but I thought maybe it might be more noticeable.

[catbyte]

17. Rosie Ruiz Husted?

[realitythink]

20. The blast went off at 2:50

Marathon started at 10AM, so if she finished in 3 hours she would've been at around 1PM. It's not out of the question and plus it really doesn't matter right now.

[Marrah_G]

25. Elite Men start at 10 am

She probably started closer to 11. not that any of this matters at all.

[Orrex]

21. They should throw her into GitMo over this

Anything less would be a disgusting miscarriage of justice.

[City Lights]

22. So you think she's fibbing about how many hours before the blast she finished,

and you equate that to "selling her soul?"

Have I got that right?

[Marrah_G]

23. who gives a fuck

What the fuck is wrong with you?

..............People are dead, who gives a fuck what some republicans time was.

Nasty, petty, inappropriate little post.

[ChoppinBroccoli]

28. I've Met This Woman Several Times

Her daughter used to go to the same daycare in Columbus as my son (at least until the allegations surfaced that the Husteds didn't actually live in the County where he was elected, and then they mysteriously disappeared--hmmmmm). She never deigned to speak to me (probably because I was one of the "little folk," and because I had Democratic stickers on my car). But many was the occasion I'd see her come flying into the parking lot (yes, flying into a parking lot where it was extremely likely a small child would be wandering away from a parent, as small children will do), slam on the brakes, jump out of her BMW wearing some hideous fur coat and giant Jackie-O sunglasses, grab her daughter by the arm and practically drag her into the center, dump her unceremoniously into the classroom, and then storm out without speaking to anyone, squealing the tires on her way out.

It made me laugh when you mentioned her "Katharine Harris makeup." That's her to a tee. And her husband isn't much better. He would never speak to me either, and this is a community of parents who pretty much all know each other.

[Jeminer88]

29. You people are so mean!!!!

First of all.. Tina is a very nice person and an amazing elite runner..I love how people have all the time in the world to criticize other people and their families. I have met her husband and he also is a very nice person.. You people are just jealous of her and you wish you could be like her.

[hrmjustin]

30. I am sorry but her husband is not nice.

It is not nice to try to block people from voting.

[tanyev]

32. Wow, you got a Google alert set for Tina Husted?

[Robb]

33. Huh.

Well, there you have it. Apparently this woman is an even sadder person than we imagine.

[JI7]

31. am i missing something here ? what do you mean by "sells her soul" ?

is she lying about what she saw or something liket hat ?
