Can we please stop talking about the death of American road running now. PLEASE. Josh Cox set the American record in the 50K in January. He’s an amazing athlete and wonderful human being. He’s also REALLY fast. Ryan is amazing, wonderful, and FAST. Desiree is too. And Kara Goucher who finished 5th at Boston barely six months after having a baby is poised to take on the world.
So to all the critics out there I say: “TAKE THAT!” The tens of thousands of us who are running and walking and walk/running and run/walking and paying our entry fees and filling up races are doing for the sport what no group has ever done before. We are making the pyramid taller so that those on the top can get higher.
Yeah.
