m He is now a thin 195 pounds on a 6-foot-3 frame
Monday's winner will finish in around 2:09, give or take a couple of minutes
It is only the second-most revealing thing Ferrell has been seen running in lately The two started running seriously while on vacation on Martha's Vineyard "
"
As part of his training, Ferrell has also immersed himself in the latest running technology, from the heart-rate monitor on his wrist to the special testing he had done at Pepperdine University to check how his body burns sugars and fats While running the New York race, Ferrell decided to play a joke on his coach by pretending he was stopping by a friend's apartment to say "Hi Bush on SNL "Probably speed up," Ferrell corrects himself "
Kobat runs alongside Ferrell during the races, telling him to speed up or slow down 2-mile distance If the call went until 11, he'd be on the treadmill at midnight
"Running a marathon is not a question of whether it will be painful, but when it will be painful," he says
"It has been really tough on him at times," says Viveca, who was also running the race
Those who do see him pass by on the way from Hopkinton to Boston's Back Bay should not expect to see him clowning around, like his SNL predecessor Bill Murray does on the golf course Boston Marathon Serious for Will Ferrell
Apr 21, 11:40 AM EST
Will Ferrell arrives on time at a tapas restaurant on trendy Newbury Street, not far from the finish line of the Boston Marathon
"His goal is to break four hours," says his coach, Gary Kobat He knows that the half-dozen reporters allotted 10 minutes each are there because he is a comedian and movie star â€â€? perhaps the biggest non-sports celebrity to run the race (Michael Dukakis ran in 1951, long before he was governor)
"But it might upset people along the race course
They ran New York together in the 2001, finishing in 5 hours, 1 minute, 6 seconds; now, he's gotten faster ("but don't tell her," he whispers) so they run apart "People were actually mad at me, that I was doing the show and training for a marathon ' "When he had a 7 a But when it comes to his running, Ferrell isn't kidding around
Despite having a mobile support staff not available to most runners, and a waiver from the qualifying standards as a "special invitee," Ferrell still has to do the hard part
"It might improve my time," he says when asked for assurances that he would not reprise the scene Monday in the oldest and perhaps most prestigious marathon in the world Where a lot of marathoners are just interested in getting faster, he wants to know how it's done "And I just love having that part of the day, where you're going on a run and you don't have phone calls or mail to answer "
But the work has paid off , 9999 and 9998, respectively "
So the interview goes, with Ferrell weaving back and forth between movie junket jocularity and earnest training talk That might be the only way for those on the course to recognize the man who played a dingbatty George W 9 million in its first eight weeks, there is a scene of him streaking down the street His castmates would go out most nights of the week until early in the morning I feel different They also ran the Stockholm Marathon last June, where he finished in 4:28:02 In November, he ran a half-marathon in 1:45:02
"I had to skip all that," he says "
Ferrell spent seven years on SNL â€â€? not exactly a crowd known its healthy lifestyle "
Will and Viv Ferrell have bib Nos call (for "Old School"), he'd get up at 5 But even if he got a little less sleep, it made him feel better
He's dressed to run, wearing jogging shoes and ankle socks, a windbreaker and black Lycra tights that show how thin his legs have gotten since he began training for the 26
"He's very serious about doing it the right way," says Kobat, whose other acting clients include Jim Carrey and Calista Flockhart I feel better," he says "He's such a student of the craft of running, and he's very coachable He's lost 25 pounds in the past 2 1/2 years, his hair is curly and he's grown a mustache for a role in a film set in the 1970s called "Anchorman"; in his next movie, "Elf," he plays an overgrown elf in Santa Claus' workshop
"It really does improve my energy level
"As long as the guy in the Gumby costume doesn't pass me, or someone dressed like Elvis, I'll be OK," Ferrell says "
That was in the first mile or so "It does help to have a sense of humor, but I'm also respectful of the race In his movie "Old School," which grossed $73 "
Ferrell's wife, Viveca, is from the Boston suburb of Needham
"Then, I'm really playful," Ferrell says, "By the end of the race, I'm like, 'Ohhhhhh They decided since he was in New York for "Saturday Night Live," they should try to run the New York City Marathon "I'm going to try not to cry, or wet my pants
