Chigaco kept Wesley Korir out of the elites men field one year they had the men start early. He asked to start with the elite but they didn't let hum. He got in on his own and his time was the fourth fastest and they paid him the money.
Since then, every race has the men elite and open start at the same time. Pretty much every women that asks to start with the elite is allowed to, but they still use the option of making them pay their way. I've never seen a female Glenn Randall.

Sure, a non-pro man could certainly (theoretically) win prize money, since he's starting at the same time (10:00 AM) and the first corral for non-elites is just a few feet behind the elite corral. (Chances are, though, that if you are even a 2:22 or faster guy, the BAA likely let you start in the elite corral.)
I would think in any race where people are starting at the same time, anyone would be eligible for prize money. That's the beauty of road racing.
Ah, thanks. I thought I read somewhere once that only the elites can get the money, which is why I asked.
1:18:05 for Hug's win. Unofficial World Record? Do Pushrims adhere to the same record eligible course standards?
They clearly should, given how much the up/down hill impacts things.

They're the same ones he wore in the Olympics, they're disguised (color scheme etc.) to look like Streaks. Multiple other runners have the new Nike 4% vapors on in the traditional white/black.

Ok, that answers my first question. What about the other parts?

The announcers keep referring to it as a world best, which would indicate they do (follow the same rules)

Seems like the race has been going in favor of Hasay.
