There was some confusion at the finish yesterday at the Half Marathon in Newport, RI. Jason Reilly broke the tape, but Scott Leslie was declared the winner. Leslie signed up late and lined up in the back of the pack. It took him over a minute to cross the start line.
I think this is a poor decision on the part of the race director. Don't know if Reilly would have caught Leslie, but seems pretty unfair to not be able to see your competitors during the race.
