Wow! That was awesome! Congrats to Meb! I've been seeing him training around San Diego and he has definitely been putting in work.

MEB! MEB! MEB!
Such a huge fan of that guy in...yeah, pretty much every respect!
I was bummed Ryan Hall faded so hard, but man, what a great day for racing! I "cheated" a little, and had it streaming for the kids in my HS band at the end of class. We watched the finish, and everyone was cheering him on!

"For the kids". Suuuuure
I just want to say that after reading his autobiography, I will love Meb forever.
And Shalane was awesome! I didn't catch what happened to Ryan Hall though, did he drop out?
Ryan Hall finished in 2:17:50

*sigh* I was worried about that, when he jumped out in front so early ('course, Meb was out there pretty early on, too...).
Congrats to Meb and Rita for her course record.
I've got a fever...
On your deathbed, you won't wish that you'd spent more time at the office. But you will wish that you'd spent more time running. Because if you had, you wouldn't be on your deathbed.

I was having a crappy day, but then someone held up a sign that said "Meb won!" and the guy next to me was like "Seriously?" "YESSSSSSS!" Then it became a not crappy day.
