Some people already know the difference between Pacing and Drafting, but some people, Dwayne, need to know the difference between running next to someone versus in front of them. With your logic, Paula paced them!!!!!

So then Dwayne, Nike Androgen, Robert, Weldon, etc... Joan's race does't count, right? Kevin Ryan, with your logic Dwayne and others, Paced Joan to a sub 2:23 marathon that day, correct?Ya can't have it both ways as Kevin was actually in front of her, not next to her. Do you think he made Joan run faster? I don't and I think no one paced or assisted her in any way, but according to Dwayne, her time and race is invalid. So then, if Kevin Ryan, number 14, hadn't run the race that day, Joan would have run slower, correct? I don't think so, but all of you do.You'll all make up lame excuses, but the bottom line is you are wrong and your egos can't handle it. If Paula had someone directly in front of her the entire race, pulling her along, truly aided her, then you might have a slight argument.Is Kimetto's world record invalid? He had actual pacers in front of him, pacing him that he drafted off of for around 18 miles. Why does his time count?Honestly, you know-it-alls actually know very little. Jealousy? I truly don't know, but you can't have it both ways.

Simply google the 1983 Boston Marathon results and you'll see a large picture of Joan and Kevin Ryan. I have the entire race on tape. The picture shows what my post pointed out.
It won't let me attach the picture as a message comes up to email wejo.

The question was whether Radcliffe was being paced to a WR. Yes, it is quite apparent from video evidence that she was indeed paced by men to a WR - quod erat demonstrandum.
NO, she wasn't paced. Was Joan Benoit? You're delusional on all levels.
