Wrongheaded and defensive stance on distance running by mortals
You've got to be kidding...Oprah ruined marathon running? What's with the so-called purists claiming lethal dilution of the purity of the sport when amateurs wish to run the same course and, for a brief moment, compete with the world's best in something, anything, once. And what's this all about, Salon? Are we trying this hard to sell the product on the basis of these bait-and-switch headlines which I thought might just be confined to the right wing hate machine? Oprah? C'mon. What next...she caused the failed policy in Iraq, too?
