1:14:09 Lindsay (1981) < 1:14:18 Trafeh (2013)..
Short course? What gives? Does anyone know why this wasn't excepted as the record (and still the record)?
Hall's London marathon split was faster yet but it I think it says a lot about how good Lindsay, Meyer, Rodgers, Al Sal etc, etc, were back in the 70's and 80's.
The wikipedia page for this race says it was a short course:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fifth_Third_River_Bank_Run
I couldn't find any other confirmation of this, but on the race's Facebook page they are saying that Trafeh's time is an AR.
Actually I just followed one of the links from the Wiki page:
"The course used for the 1981-82 races was remeasured as 150 m short. It is assumed that the 1978-80 races were also significantly short."
