    Even with fires out, that junk lingers in the air for awhile, I'm betting.

    You'd be wrong. The junk doesn't linger more than a couple of days.

    I definitely wouldn't even consider myself as any semblance of being sub-elite.

    An aside, but when did people get so strict about the meaning of "sub-elite"? It's a pretty new term that was mostly invented by the NYRR (with their "sub elite field" for the marathon that only requires a 2:35) and the NYT article from 2013 ("sub elite runners chase improvement," where the featured runner was a 2:30 guy).

    not to go too far off tangent but "sub-elite" can be found (and loosely defined) in research articles from the 1970s

    Doesn't count. Too much downhill. CIM is downhill, but barely passes the max 1m drop per 1km
