Men
1. Fernando Cabada, Boulder, CO, 1:03:53, $500
2. Eliud Ngetich, 19, New York, NY, 1:03:55, $400
3. Mike Sayenko, 29, Bellevue, WA, 1:04:36, $300
4. Jeremy Criscione, 35, Gainesville, FL, 1:04:52, $200
5. Ahmed Osman, 25, Flagstaff, AZ, 1:04:54, $100
A quick google search shows the Ngetich moved to NYC about 6 months ago.
His facebook page notes he was in the Class of 2008 at Tapsgoi High School. I'm not sure how much the Kenyan education system differs from outs, but someone who finished high school 5 years ago is only 19?
Something stinks.
It's possible it's a simple typo.
That lists the 4th US man (Criscione) as 35, and he's only 25 (maybe 26).
