To this day, I think Ritz 8:11 two mile he ran at Prefontaine classic is his best race he ever ran.
couple months later he’d make the US marathon team for Beijing.
ritz best marathon was always off strong track seasons ( Chicago 2012)
ritz best 5k/ 10k times were always coming off marathon training.
as a ritz fan, I just wish the marathon was an endeavor I wish he’d never chased.
wish he’d stuck w 1500-10k and chased a medal at world XC. 4k and or 12k
Calm down on the wishing.
