Bringing in Ryan and Deena (like Geb with his half record attempt a few years ago in AZ, featuring a field of just him and some rabbits) is about the most frontrunner move ever. It's just a marketing ploy to add some splash to their event when the reality is that they have no real intentions of ever giving anything more than lip service to helping develop the competitive side of the sport. This move just helps the rich get richer and doesn't really benefit the sport at all. When (Sub)Elite Racing/(Non)Competitor Group start providing better opportunities for up-and-coming runners then I'll reconsider my view."
I agree 100% with you.
