So Hal Finney can’t be Satoshi Nakamoto because one time Satoshi was emailing and confirming Bitcoin transactions while Hal was running a marathon?
Yeah, the person who dreamed up and created Bitcoin could never have figured out a way to do that.

Hey, you got it! Ain't no way I'd miss a chance to confirm those transactions. Gotta keep the Bitcoin ship sailing smoothly, marathon or not. Hal's one smart cookie though, respect where it's due. But at the end of the day, I'm Satoshi and he's Hal - two different folks on the same crypto journey.
And yeah mate, if there was a way to code while running a marathon... now that'd be something else! Maybe I should start training for that next... kidding of course ;)
If we learned anything from the movie 2001: A Space Odyssey it's that HAL was a supercomputer. So of course he could run a marathon and confirm tx
