the 4th place finisher (listed on athletic.net) did not actually race, and they deleted the 34th placer in order to still have 40

They always make mistakes. Does it really matter?
The results are correct on the Footlocker Website..... Why bother with what id says elsewhere.
Milesplit is correct also.
Because most people don't do that. They go to sites they use routinely. I'm certain I have never visited the FL website and likely never will. I am curious how this happened however.

Probably matters to the 34th place finisher.
A simple data entry error? That's what the Illuminati wants you to think! This has their fingerprints all over it but, QAnon will expose this conspiracy soon enough.
That's very bizarre. That seems like a very strange error to have made by accident, but then again it might have been pretty easy to do depending on how you input results.
Who is the 4th place finisher who got added in?

Easy enough to fix, just send athletic.net a note on it. They will have a trail of who entered results and who might have changed them. It has to be someone who has permission to put up entries, so if some athlete represented himself as a coach and got on it could happen.
Keep in mind that usually initial input of results is done by volunteers around the country.
Thats lazy. I use Athletic.net and I know its a mess. They routinely put people on the ranking lists even though they ran a different distance. And this happens EVERY DAY. When are they going to learn no one can run a 5K in 9 minutes?! Certainly not a middle schooler. And that is exactly why I use milesplit and most definitely go to the Footlocker site (or a dozen other sites) when I want specific information from the source. Athletic.net is only useful for following specific athletes so you can be alerted when they ran a race. So its basically the instagram of running sites... And you should consider its reliability just about as much as you would the averge instagram post.

Athletic.net results are terribly inaccurate, lots of mistakes especially for older events.

Fine, I use milesplit too but athletic.net has one major advantage....meets that use live. That feature is great. Milesplit need to get with it.
