Rojo, you also deserve a Pulitzer for this, lol. Honestly, when I read the Litton article in the NY Times I pooped my pants. I guess that even as a runner, making this seemingly outrageous and simple crime seem so dramatic is a little baffling to me. And believe me, I do comprehend the severity of it, but still...that article was like the writer was sitting down with a guy who got away with mass murder.
Rojo, I expect the same dramatic flair, which I have never once seen from your writing, so I do not know why I request it now. :)
It's funny that I got so into this as a) i've always thought peopel who are so obsessed about marathon cheaters were showing a bit of sign of mental illness themselves and b) didn't like the writing of the New Yorker story.
But the arrogance of this guy got to me. I hate the "holier than thou" attitude.
Either that or I just didn't feel like writing the week that was.
