here's another nice pre-race interview with Dathan, I like this one because it's during a real workout (and he's wearing Nike gear, has to be just a few days before the race)

Just for the record...
If I was running that race for the 8th time,
that is, running it for the fourth time for the second time,
Could I say that I was running my Second Fourth Fifth Third Bank Run?
Here is how it works.
If Ritz runs well he will regain his Nike contract. He will not run for another brand if he is healthy.
Nike writes "first right of refusal" in every contract. This means that if any other shoe company offers him a contract, Nike can match it. They will if Ritz is healthy. The only time they don't is if they think the athlete is done.
Seems strange that Nike would stick with Abdi and drop Ritz.
They probably offered him about half of his worth. He probably turned it down and both sides sit and wait.
If someone offers him his worth then Nike will match otherwise he will continue as is.

Ritz could publicly fight Nike, or threaten to expose their nasty practices. why not.
Fifth Third's unusual name is the result of the June 1, 1908, merger of Third National Bank and Fifth National Bank, to become the Fifth-Third National Bank of Cincinnati (the hyphen was later dropped).

And then 5th 3rd Bank bought out Old Kent Bank, who was the original title sponsor of the race. So they went from a race name that made sense even with the title sponsor name (Grand Rapids is in Kent County) to one that sounds much more awkward
