And it's clear to me that you are an idiot who goes on about something you don't know anything about. This race has the highest prize purse of any race shorter than a marathon and draws a healthy-sized elite field. Or do feel free to point us to another 12K with a massive hill where Catherine Ndereba runs 40 flat and gets beaten by 50 people.
By your rationale, the NYC Marathon is a total spoofer race because there are costumes and people who stop at bars.
Not to be a smart ass but she ran a 39:57 at Bloomsday this year, a very hilly 12k, which put her 54th overall and 4th for the women.
