Neural network used as "doping"

A genius programmer (someone with initials PJ) created a neural network aimed to provide the best results in running marathon for human.

Thanks to Google deep dream project, this programmer also realized what each of the cells in his neural network does and how the neural network actually works.

In other words, given a usual human we can determine what that human should eat, drink and how the subject should generally behave in order to run marathon perfectly.

My story centers around idea that this programmer devotes two to five years of his life to get himself trained by this neural network. He basically lets this network decide what and when he should eat, he feeds it with all his biological data and so on.

Can we expect he will win the marathon race?

In other words:

• We start with an average human
• This human does exactly as told by the Neural Network
• The Neural Network in question is trained perfectly to understand the human body and its goal is to run marathon as fast as possible (minimize marathon running time)
• This human obeys everything the neural network tells him to do for a maximum of 5 years in row
• At the end of this training session, this human is so good in running marathon that he can win

P.S.: This human does not use any illegal doping, but is willing and able to eat food supplements in tablets if neural network tells him so.
