That was the most ridiculous elite marathon I have ever witnessed. Another similar ridiculous marathon that come to mind is Chicago 2007 when unknown Patrick Ivuti beat Gharib at the line and unknown Adriana Pirtea was outsprinted by Berhane Adere on the opposite side of the finishing straight as Pirtea was celebrating for the entire homestretch. Boston 2012 also punished the elites in a similar way. But those were because of hot weather, not cold.
And congrats to everyone that simply finished on Monday. Those were some brutal conditions.
