You really think they'll arrest someone for this? Shirley they have more important things to worry about.

I don't think anyone will be arrest but I'm sure that all the names that have been turned over with GPS evidence of the crossing will have to pay a fine anywhere from $500 to $2000.

You marathon vigilantes really need another good cheating story, you're grasping at air right now trying to get someone in trouble for something.

You sound nervous.

You sound like an idiot.

Hopefully you didn't upload it to Strava. If you did, I've already sent your name and the data from your run to the race, the railroad, and the Allentown Police Dept. Don't bother deleting now if your data is already online, I have all the evidence they need saved.

Ooooooh. I'm shakin'.

Another cheating story? Aren't we still working to DQ Mike Rossi? Over? ......was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?

I will also be in contact with Derek.

Nah Mike. You're the best and thanks for making the name famous!

I was one of the three who got through the train. When I saw the clusterf, I immediately thought that anyone after a BQ was screwed and no way would BAA adjust times. I saw one guy hop on and climb through and I did the same. Poor guy fell coming off and broke his iPhone. I was fine but it was surreal being in the middle of a race with practically nobody around for miles until the fast guys caught us again four miles later. A friend of mine who was spectating saw the first guy go under the train. Insane.

Love it.

This will go down as a historic tragedy. 9/11 will reign as one of the worst days of marathon racing forever.

There is a more famous Via criminal afoot although he says he is not himself these days:

Still haven't been sentenced, received a ticket, been DQd or been spanked.

Don't think it's gonna happen, pal.

You kind of sound like Mike Rossi now. And that, my friend, is the worst punishment of all.

You picked the wrong week to quit sniffing glue.
