The Ethiopian Geleta is also doubling Worls and NYC marathon. He already was 2nd this year in Tokyo with a time of 2:03:51. Last year he was 4th at the Olympics, he is one of the main favorite for the title next month but to be competitive in NYC after that should be hard.
Hillary Bor, Charles Hicks, Joe Klecker, Patrick Dever, Charles Philibert-Thiboutot are entered for their debuts. Alex Maier is also entered though not a debut, same with Biya Simbassa.
No CJ Albertson or Scott Fauble? Fauble never ‘officially’ retired, although he basically said so. Does anyone know if his contract with NIKE expired?
