I was just on the Dubai Marathon wikipedia page looking up the course record.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dubai_Marathon2:04:23.
Anyway, they have a list of winners and I saw the 2011 winner and was like, "Who the hell is that?" Who is the guy that won after Haile won 3 straight.
David Barmasai won in 2:07:18. He never broke 2:10 before or after that.
Does anyone know if they had a $200,000 purse back then?
Here is a list of the winners since 2008.

It was definitely not $200k but it may have been high. I think it was only $140k a couple years ago.
17 guys still in the lead pack at 20k
was the announcer joking about not knowing glycogen is?
Don't know but apparently he's never heard the word "glycogen". First marathon?
Does anyone know what happened to Tsegaye Kebede? That little guy is my favorite
20 guys just ran a 1/2marathon faster than Luke did last weekend, with another 13.1 to go!!
Leaderboard of men at halfway
