    Serious grit to respond not once, but TWICE to repel CCM. Much respect. 💪

    2:14 is fast , healthy guys in their 30’s probably wouldn’t run that

    . . . and why do we have to find coverage of this race here, instead of USATF or NBC? USATF couldn't promote their way out of a paper bag.

    Peter “rabbit” Kashulines! Great race. You should have challenged the winner to a wood chopping contest after the race. You win that easy!

    I thought that the Masters category in track was over-40, but I think that these people are all 55 or older

      Masters has 5 year age groups to make it fair.

      It is, but these exhibition races often are limited to different age groups as well as different distances to provide opportunities for more people

    running and mobility important in all years, but older guys need strength and muscle so not to be the "skinny old dude over there"

      The age groups are segmented into 5 year spans. 50-54, 55-59, etc. At nationals, all age groups are run, but this is an invitational race, and hosting a Masters race is done to showcase Masters running. The Penn Relays does this also. Usually 1 age group for men and 1 for women.
