Yeah, Puskedra was over 3 minutes ahead of 2nd place in that race. It's hard to know what kind of shape he was in. He didn't need to run anything faster than a 1:05 to win easily. (source: https://eclecticedgeracing.overallraceresults.com/pages/event_summary/333/)

OK, maybe Ritz was a world class marathoner when he ran 2:07 in Chicago.
And didn't he run 2:08 after that in Boston? But the Boston run wasn't world class. He tried to run away for the win and the east Africans ate him up.
Ritz never ran 2:08 at Boston. And he only ran under 2:10 one other time, barely (trials 2012).
I’ve got a strong feeling that Ritz is ready. Hansons have been pretty quiet and this usually means they are ready.
Lagat has a big write up by Monti meaning he’s probably not ready. He did a lot of talking before his debut in NY and then went out and sheet the bed.
Cabada is not running the trials. He’s running Boston.
Ole man Abdi still in the mix.
Abdi, Lagat, Ritz will be in the mix at 20mile because this will be do or die situation. They know this is their last chance to make an olympic team. There is no 2024 trials for them. They will prefer running 35k with the leaders then dying instead of just dying at the finish line
I'm rooting for Peskedra and I think everyone should root for him. Anyone who's made the Olympics before isn't someone I'm rooting for. To make the Olympics after finishing 4th, that would be a cool story. To make the Olympics after already making it a million times like Lagat, wouldn't be that cool.
Also Ryan Vail, he's been a mainstay for years, he deserves it.
Yeah that race is a bike path race with little competition. He probably does a lot of training on the course. This tells me nothing without knowing if this was a workout or an all out effort. I'm going to guess workout but it was still 3 months ago. He might be more fit now. He's a good darkhorse pick.
I hope the drug cheat falls on his face...again. positive A sample
Bumbalough will be ready to roll
