I still want to know about all that money?
What do distance guys on the track get for breaking WR?
How about AR's?
Marathon Appearance fees are much higher, right?

Found this link that there is a $50K bonus for a World Record at the Indoor World Championships.
There was a $100K bonus for last year's outdoor meet.
Each meet will have their own budget and priorities for what events they may offer a record.
Top marathoners get bigger appearence fees but they only race twice a year, maybe 3 times.
The $25K bonus for Merritt's event was probably a negotiating tactic. We'll pay you, but only of you run fast.
He'll have some appearance fee on top of that.

Guess you missed the USA Today article that proved Merritt is telling the truth about everything. Merritt is a boss. I am pulling for him all the way. USA!

Pretty sure the fact that some 711 lady said he bought Extenze doesn't prove that he didn't dope. Either this guy's a doper or a complete idiot. To be honest, I'm not sure that one is better than the other.
Looks like Merrit is feeling a little bit inadequate and is looking to extenze his race a little bit!
1:01.45
1:01.39 that is.
He was right where he wanted to be at 300m (sub 36) but then he ended up running a 26 final 200m...
