Spencer Matthews has recorded a new marathon PB of 2:49, with Runner's World reporting his training was built around maths, science, and consistency. The result marks a strong performance for the British television personality turned endurance athlete.

The time is a credible result at any level, and his approach to training has drawn attention for its methodical nature. Rather than relying on guesswork or intuition, Matthews used a calculated and consistent training method.

Matthews is married to Vogue Williams, who has also attracted media attention this week after responding to critics. Those critics accused her of breaking maternity norms by going out with her one-month-old baby. Williams responded publicly to the comments.
