      Yeah, I saw that too... definitely the wrong group of people to try and scare off.

      In the words of my late-coach : Just hang in there, relax... and at the end of a race anyone you see.....just pass them

        I saw it.  When I think of marathoners, I think of endurance, perseverance.  Not sure we are people that would give up and quit just because of an asshole or a group of them.

        As part of the 2024 London Marathon, I am fundraising for VICTA, a charity that helps blind and visually impaired children. My mentor while in law school, Jim K (a blind attorney), has been a huge inspiration and an example of courage and perseverance. Please consider donating.

          I like Stephen Colbert's quote "You are talking about a group of people who take their day off of work and go run 26 miles until their nipples bleed - for fun!"

              Hm, I didn't see anyone post this yet:

              Oh that is awesome. Have not seen the Colbert yet, but as usual it's waiting for me on the DVR....
