Many people do not like personal pacers in marathons. If personal pacers are legal then women should only be allowed women pacers.
However, ANY personal pacers in a race with prize money seems unethical.
Who cares… if you are good enough to win the race then just got with the front group pacers if you are not good enough to go with the athlete and their pacers you probably won’t win. Or link others said find your own fast friend![/quote]
Definitely agree. So what is stopping people from hiring 9 pacers and have them run as the flying wedge? Keep the runner in the middle and run the entire race like that.
