Sondre Moen, 1:00:20, 3rd in Málaga, Toroitich 59:13, Kibiwott 59:23

Great run by the podium here. Not sure how Chojo project works exactly but definitely some good results coming from the group: Vincent Kipkemoi - 2:03:13 debut for 2nd in Berlin; John Korir - 4th in Chicago 2:05:09; Bethwel Kibet (Chumba) 3rd in Amsterdam - 2:04:37. Not sure they all train together and I think Brimin Misoi who won Frankfurt trains with Albert Korir

All these guys ASICS sponsored? Also curious to know whether you think ASICS is on the same level in research and development as Nike and ADIDAS, the current leaders? If the "other" shoe companies (PUMA, HOKA, etc), don't keep up you'll have a situation like F1, with some brands clearly having an advantage.

Honest question with no bad intention at all...

Is it 60:20 so close to 59:48???

I mean, that's 32 seconds for 21k... if you think about it that's more of a second slower per km.

And Malaga Half is as flat as VLC, by the way.

Yes all Asics (except Albert Korir), not sure about how they compare but Asics certainly seem keen to support elite athletes and develop products. Sure seems like they are sponsoring more athletes than in the past
