Absolute Madness in Valencia, Shoes, Olympic babies, and The Track Meet

3 years ago

FOUR men, led by Kibiwott Kandie, ran 57 and change for the half marathon in Valencia, 30 went sub 2:10 in the marathon, and the adidas 'Super Shoe' is definitely here. Aliphine Tuliamuk is pregnant but still going to run the Olympics, Weini Kelati is a pro, dreams became reality at The Track Meet in California, Emily Sisson just came up short in Valencia as Jordan Hasay struggled.
