Leading into Berlin and Chicago, Fauble, Bates and Scott all communicated very lofty goals that just didn’t materialize come race day. Did they overdo their training?

Yeah. I was looking for the Team Boss goes home devastated thread. Team talked a bigger game than they were able to deliver this fall. Only one somewhat reserved on their chances was Scott.
Maybe. Bates has come off Strava so hard to know. Seemed in great shape at Boston - was really expecting her to be up there challenging with Sisson.
It will be interesting to read her race recap. She tends to go in to good detail. Maybe just an off day.
Bates went off Strava due to privacy concerns. People creeping.
Since Chicago and Berlin are flat, the team Boss marathoners switched-up their training, doing more track work and faster stuff. I think this was a mistake. They had a great formula that worked really well for their other marathons. They definitely over cooked this build.
