Aren't we going a little overboard here? Do you know people that have been complaining because their time might not be listed? NYT is a private (publicly held) company and can publish anything they want.
I'm really having a hard time understanding where all of the anger towards slow runners is coming from. The NYTM has a number of guaranteed entry options for those that qualify. Those that don't meet one of those requirements can enter through the lottery. I've never entered NY so someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm assuming that the lottery is a random drawing with everyone having the same chance of being selected regardless of time. 5 hour runners are just complying with the rules for entry set up by race management - the same rules that apply to 2:50 runners.
It makes no sense to blame slower runners for being in the race. Even if they decided not to enter because they thought a fast runner was more "worthy" there would be no guarantee a faster runner would be selected in their place. If you don't like the system take it up with race management, but why blame runners who are just following the entry rules?
