I think Ritz best distance is the 1/2 marathon.
He should simply be a road whore- nothing wrong with that.
Back when road racing was just starting to grow- late 70's/early 80's- a lot of guys were road whores and distance runners were well known.
They were with the "masses", running the same race, mingling afterwards.
It was good for the sport.
For sure have you read the book "king of the roads" about alsal and frank shorter and bill Rodgers in the late 70s early 80s? They raced all the time and it was amazing for the sport
