To all the message board rats on here:
Not that it matters, but....Alberto is 5'11", not 6'1"
Track Fan 1979 is not that knowledgeable. It's Dick Quax, NOT Quack's. Nice try though.
Bob ran 2:12:30 for 3rd place in the 1979 Boston Marathon, and no I didn't have to look it up as I was there.

2:10:59, Robert Hodge, Norwell, MA, 25, Nike OTC, OR, 9/7/1980.
Bob won.
No clue is your were responding to me or not, but Bob didn't win. Dick won and I was there too....and he was 3rd in the 79' Boston Marathon. Dick was 12 seconds in front of Bob.
No clue if you were....typing fast in my upper 40's.

Well, that's actually not the quote. No wonder why he hates you.

Does the book go into detail about his heart attack?
Whether it was genetic or a dietary issue? Salazar
was the last person who I imagined with coronary disease.
Does he talk about his rival Henry Rono or Suleiman Nyambui?
The creation of Athletics West?
But the book is slated for my read list.
He actually goes into great detail about his heart attack. Al did lengthy research and is very specific on heart disease and what causes heart attacks, and how he may have been predisposed to a "cardiac event." It's a fast read. He talks about Rono as well with some good stories, but did not mention Nuambui or Athletics West that much.
My apology. I was wrong. Bob was 12 seconds behind Dick as you say.
"....12 seconds behind Dick...."
hehe
You could say, "he was 12 seconds behind Dick, and then finished."
drug use may effect their lives now that they are old men.
Hey what happend to Ventolins rant about Marion Jones really being a non PED user???
He's a moderator or knows one well, hence the pull. What he doesn't like, he gets deleted, period. How insecure...as if his thoughts are universal.
