I was looking forward to not seeing this swelled head with his bicycle video crew running at Boston since I knew he failed to qualify, but just for the helluva it I checked for his name on the BAA website. He was there! How?
Cutoff time was 5:29 or 2:54:31
He failed to run a qualifying time and yet is somehow in wave 1 corral 7 with the real qualifiers.
His marathons since September 1, 2022:
Tunnel Vision (2000' downhill) - 2:57:24
New York 4:15:40
Houston 2:59:35 (Disqualified for being a bib-mule)
Austin 3:17:14
Los Angeles 3:17:59
Boston 3:24:53
Dallas Triple 3:49:00
Grandma's 3:24:52
San Francisco 3:28:20
Berlin 3:24:55
Chicago 2:59:37
Austin 3:03:03
11,039 people with qualifying times were denied this year. Some people missed by seconds and were denied. His best was down the side of a mountain and was only 2:36 under - he missed the cut by 2:53! And now he has a bib in wave 1? If the BAA wants to give this clown a bib he didn't earn, give him a bib with the charity runners in the back.
I think everyone who was cut this year ought to flood the BAA's email with complaints.
Choi, I know you read this board. Show a little integrity and don't show up. Some of us still respect the sport. You already displayed a total lack of integrity by bib-muling and getting DQ'ed in Houston. Do your ridiculous clown show somewhere else.
If you do show up, I'll enjoy watching Cailyn Miller kick your @ss again like she did last year. She beat you by 25 minutes! LOL!
