She once chatted for a while with Meb in the waiting room. Even elites need to wait for the doctor!

I also thought Meb would finish in the top 5! He wasn't even in the top 20 (He's still a king in my book, though).<br /><br />As far as their appearances at the end of the races. That's like superhero biology. They're barely sweating!

When I read about these people that casually toss off a 10 miler like it's nothing, I should remember that they're only running around the same time that I take to do 5 miles.<br /><br />I guess at the end of a race it's all out running no matter who you are. But why do those guys look so unscathed after they cross the line?The Emerging Runnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09326865074297618379noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7924908815112206508.post-10431552055384831492013-11-06T06:22:30.769-05:002013-11-06T06:22:30.769-05:00All good questions.

It's probably not until the last 20 or 30 minutes when the 'real' race for them begins.ThePetitePacerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14759681534640480507noreply@blogger.com
