Fact. The race permits only 2 East Africans in the elite divisions. I say this as a WA registered agent and the race’s elite athlete coordinator will state this to agents with racial overtones.

Surprised that's allowed in the year 2023.
But it certainly gets the American fans to pay more attention.

Great men's finish video from Lori Riley
PS. Beadlescomb also won after the race:
Rojo, you really think someone posting as “kelatis nice round rear” is a WA registered agent? It’s just a troll stirring up the pot.
Congrats to Beadlescomb, he did a nice post race interview and mentioned that it’s a cross-country like race with the distance and hill. For the locals that have raced it for years it definitely feels like a capstone to XC season.
Carlsbad also now limits East Africans. “If we let them all in then we end up with a Kenyan time trial and an American race.”
They accept only 2 men and 2 women East Africans.
WA AR, correct.
User name, also correct.

Uh huh. The WA registered agent who’s really concerned about racism is using a racist, sexist username which could potentially be traced back to him and end his career as an agent. Why don’t you tell us your name troll?
I am simply reporting the facts. A case could also be made for ‘American Only’ prize money.
Rodriguez has raced more this year than most BTC pros in their whole career
Championship racing is the problem- in a cranked race from the start I think WEINI is a top 3 US runner. in a 10k that is a 20 lap jog followed by a two mile race she just doesn’t have the speed…..which is generally what the US Champs end up being….
It didnt look like he let him win. He was worried about Isai catching him . lol/Totally BS
