  • WC marathon teams

    http://www.usatf.org/news/view.aspx?DUI ... 4_09_18_35

    Not a single repeater from the Oly team on either side.

    Fastest woman is 2:31 and fastest guy is 2:12.

    Drossin said her goals were Chicago, but happened to everyone else?

    For those that claim the WC's are the equivalent of Olys, this is powerful evidence to the contrary if Oly medalists like Meb and Drossin don't even want to run their primary event. Is Culpepper going to try for the 10,000?

    Do you feel that this is a case of them getting
    cold feet?

      You cannot run many top-level marathons. The successful Olympics leads them to use their marathon in a potentially lucrative Chicago/London/Boston/NY race where finishing well is worth more than finishing semi-well in the competitive WC race.
