64:22. Second was 65:17; and third was 70:58.
-
heat and humidity?
-
That's a horrible result.

It was warm and humid (yes, I live in Chicago), not horrible by any means, but my guess is that it was a tempo run for him. In any case, it was only a three hour drive for him to get to Chicago, and nice to mix and mingle, which he did yesterday, and please his sponsors.
-
Please explain why? Marathon pace workout in crappy conditions and probably a nice pay day? Seems good to me.

No, he matched Walmsley's time and he's ready to start running ultras. -
I ran the half this morning and it was fairly hot and humid. This really isn’t that fast of a course. On a sidenote, they sent the lead 10k Runner’s the wrong way 😂 and cancelled the 5k the night before. Rock N’Roll did not have a great weekend and Ritz saved them.

You can’t say there is not some fight left in the old dog , the only way they will get him off the road racing circuit is dragging him off kicking and screaming .
He doesn’t have much left of his tendons but still has lots of heart . -
low-70s & 100% humidity at the start. just on a better weather day he probably would have been a minute faster without changing anything up. 13.1 @ marathon pace 12 weeks out. seems like a good day at the office to me.
a lot of folks forget he threw down a 1:01 this past February. he still has something left. I honestly feel like a 1:04 today is worth 1:02-3 maybe, who knows. -

I flew into Chicago for this race and to see relatives - got to see a lot of people struggle and two get CPR just after you got out from the convention center underpass thing. It was hot and humid and gross. -
It was 73 and 95% humidity at race start. Around mile ten the sun started to come out, I'd say 1:04 here is way better than Walmsley's result in Houston.
-
I had 93-degrees, real feel 102. That's a solid effort, but Ritz has always been great in in the heat. I was in the field when we went 27:25 in Mobile in 85-degrees, 80% humidity. Just nasty.

With that weather and being out on his own, that was a solid effort. Grow a pair loser. -
Ran the half, low 70s above 90% humidity, better than July home in Atlanta. How could 10k leaders be sent wrong direction? The split course was WELL marked at the split. A few ambulances near the dark tunnel didn’t know what was going on.
Unless the 5k participants got an email, I don’t know how they would have known early that it was cancelled. I don’t even think it was mentioned on the app until Sunday morning. -

There is always some 25 min 5k guys on here flaming pros, grow up dude, he won the race and ran a fantastic time in over 80 degrees and humidity. 64 is still fast as hell. -

Not a super fast time, but he won, so does it matter? -

13 at marathon pace barely registers as a beneficial workout. Either he's not in shape or he ran a moderate workout, either way he should not be congratulated. -

You can't call something a horrible result unless you know what the goal was -

Are you on crack? In those conditions, that's a excellent time.
