Enough is enough! Especially in the men's marathon if you can't hit the Olympic qualifying time standard (2:11:30) you stay home regardless what place you get in the trials. Start running faster.
What are you talking about? 2:11:30 would have been top 9 in the last five Olympic marathons, and top 6 or 7 in four out of those five. When Meb won his silver in Athens he ran 2:11:29.
