I know that our resident runners will want to weigh in on this one but I tuned in to while bouncing between football games and Meb Keflezighi of the USA won the men's race. Ryan Hall (who has been talked about on this board) finished 4th. total 5 Americans in the top 10. One thing of note...Keflezighi outran a 4 time winner of the Boston Marathon.

Meb, Ryan and FlameFans' own elite marathoner Josh Cox all train together in SoCal. Its great to see Americans winning the big marathons once again.

Why doesn't Josh ever run in these things? It seems like he's always tweeting while they're going on.

What makes seeing Meb win in NY all the more meaningful is that Im sure you guys remember this discussion: http://www.flamefans.com/forums/viewtop ... ay#p124225
