I haven't seen a thread started about this guy yet today, had to get one started. He has more than earned some attention for his efforts.
Nice PR for him this morning, 1:01:52. I didn't realize this guy doesn't have a sponsor. I sure as hell hope he doesn't give up on the sport. I will go out and buy a pair of shoes from any company that signs him.
Hey nice thread Jason. sad
I'll not buy any shoes but I will buy him a beer.
I know of a place that gives him shoes, but he never mentions them. Maybe he doesn't deserve a sponsor!!
Someone should just sponsor Brad Hudson instead.

Like this interview where he mentions The Boulder Running Co. gives him shoes?
http://www.runnerspace.com/news.php?news_id=109197-Catching-Up-With-Jason-HartmannAs LetsRun noted in their race wrap-up, he skipped the 1:02s altogether--bodes well for Boston!
Maybe on the basis of this performance and the fact that, as last year's top American, he should get some media coverage going into the race, he can convince someone that it's worth at least a few thousand dollars to put him in their singlet/gear on Patriots Day.
If this was Hartmann's second-last pro race ever, I will be very sad. One of my favorite runners.
Great guy, great interview - nice insights to Hudson and Jonesy trainging methods!

Rest in Peace Adrian Lehmann - 2:11 Swiss marathoner. Dies of heart attack.
