Subject: Rock and Roll Raleigh I'm not here to stir up anything with this thread, as it is sad that 2 runners passed away during the half-marathon.
I just wanted to check in and comment that the course must've been pretty tough, as in the M40-44 age group, there were two Boston-qualifying times...out of 151 in that age group. That is an extremely low qualifying percentage (1.3% ).
Tough course, humid morning, and rising temperatures likely contributed. Even the winning time of 2:38 is comparatively slow. |
