I love how into the finishing medals everyone is. How about showing him your $20,000.

How can you not get this? I submit you are out of touch with the average runner. It’s why LR will never bern more that a niche of a niche site.

I woke up 10 min. ago (8:12 a.m.), rushed to my computer to see the race, thinking I missed most of it. No worries....if I was up from the start, I STILL would have missed most of it. Potentially, is this the WORST coverage of a race **EVER*?
NO. This is what I think the average race coverage is like. Ok, this is worse but all races miss the break.
Darn, women aren't going to get caught by the men.
Yes, average race coverage is bad, and usually misses the break. But this was far worse. I'm guessing they showed 15 minutes total of elites running out of an hour long race.
Well, I slept in and missed this race. Just read the thread. Seems like the coverage was terrible, per usual.
The splits were all over the place until the last few miles where the leaders were really throwing the hammer down.
Great runs by True, Ritz, and Sisson. Great to that Ritz still has it.

Anyone know how Derrick & Bumby did?

Live tracker has nothing for Bumbalough after 10k?

Worth noting that the Nike 4% didn't take the win today. True with Saucony and Diriba with Adidas.
Just got me wondering. Where the hell Derrick finished?
8th 1 minute back.
Ashley Higginson was the 10th US woman in her half debut
Ahh Dathan Dathan, that extra Al Sauce you complained about is what used to get you the win!
Can we Expect Great Things when Ben eventually makes his full 'thon debut?
Is Chris Derrick update? Doesn't seem to be progressing.

I know the marathon is the BIG event- Olympics and all.
But what if the half is his event? He can race more- be in the public eye more.
I always felt that Ritz's best event was the half marathon.

after the federal tax, state tax, city tax, social security/medicare tax, and Active.com convenience fee is removed from the check there will not be too much left over.
Lets hope this is not the best USA has to offer in the half marathon for 2018. Look at the current world list on the IAAF website. And we are only in March!
