You are reporting the following post to the moderators for review and possible removal from the forum Poster: Jeff Wigand Subject: RE: London Disappoints: Do World Marathon Majors offer a "finisher" incentive to the elite field? Body:
That's what I heard, too. However, with such strong fields if you realize you're not in striking distance for Top 5, dropping out and focussing on the next race is probably the best ROI. That's sad but let's remember it's not like you can recover from a Marathon like you can from a 5k and race next weekend again.[/quote] Explain that to me: you're good enough to get a $100,000 appearance fee at London. At some point, you realize you're not going to finish very well. Your advice is to drop, get that fee cut in half and then race where? The next race that could possibly offer that kind of fee is a fall marathon and even then, no one pays as much appearance money as London.
