This is just amazing. Rita Jeptoo is so fast she can outrun a train!

    She can also leap tall buildings in a single bound :)

    Amazing time she pulled today.

    Well I have always heard the best method is to pick a person in front of you and "reel" them in..well, when there isn't anyone in front of you, use a train :)

    That is pretty awesome!

    It is crazy to watch the front runners, wow they are fast! I can't even fathom running that fast for even a minute!

    If I could post it from work, I'd use the Wayne's World "NOT WORTHY" .gif.

    Awesome.

    Um, I'm familiar with the trolley on Beacon street and and comm ave... I out run them often. ;-) That's why I run home from work on game days.

    But really, I was standing 12 inches from her when she passed by my mile 23 viewing spot. Amazing! She made it look easy! No picture though, I found it too hard to get it framed up and take it while she was running. Too fast!!!

    ETA looks like one of my photos was ok after all, but of Meb.

    I thought it was going a little slowly. But she is still beautiful.
