Zinadine Zidane (one of the great sports names, its as if his name was designed for him to be 2 time world Player of the year).....He also has one of the great names with illiteration, I can't think of many sports names that have that....but I can think of several actors....
Sylvestere Stallone,
Lorenzo Lamas........can someone help me think of athletes with this same illiteration.....I'll try to update the Sweepstakes tomorrow...To all the wellwishers, I will send my regards to Fasil...who notes that he is checking this thread in London......Go USA...

If I win, send the $50 to the track coach at Ben Davis so a needy HS kid can get a pair of shoes. I ran with your old HS coach when I was at IU, and I know someone at your alma mater could use the help - as could any HS. Tall ya what, if I win, I'll match the donation.
Amsalu,
Did you run with a Jason Beck at Butler back in the day?

Sounds Great!!
I'll relay the info to Fasil and maybe we can do something more to help the Track program at Ben Davis......great idea...
Jason Beck, Renaissance Man.....I loved Jason's sense of humor. He went to do the Peace Corp in South America, didn't he....
Getting off work, going home to crash...
GOOD LUCK to all participants of Boston Marathon...

Negative splits ftw! (Fasil must have gotten a new email address that I did not know about, I’m not sure why he went with the name LukeTheRunner)
”9 minute PR…….”,….. I would think that this might be optimistic…in fact, Our mom might find this time optimistic… I hope you are right, but In fact I think that many of the guesses are skewed to the optimistic end…..I guess that it might be reasonable to skew to the faster times as you are responding to the runner’s brother, but, give your best guess…not best possible scenario guess….

I now suspect a likely clustering of guesses around the guy from MIT as everyone will assume that he got his guess by using a statistical algorithm that plugs in hieght, weight, vital statistics, PRs, prerace diet, climate, # of times getting laid in the past year (Fasil might hurt in this department) and figured a time based on this statistical algorithm………Thanks for the support!

”Gotta go w/ my lucky #s, and I hope Fasil doesn't run 2:21:12! Hope he represents the USA and New Balance well”
” ran against him in high school... giving him a 6 minute pr... good luck!”
Thanks for support. Shots out to everyone in our hometown of Indianapolis, especially Ben Davis High School! I still own the Columbus East high school course record (the only one that Fasil did not break)…granted it was a dual meet in the middle of nowhere…but I still got it and noone can take that away from me…I’m pathetic
