NYC marathon

Leafing through rec.running, I read dwjones45's message of 07 Nov 2004:

can anyone tell me if the race is being braodcast over the internet?
it does suck that all we get outside of new york city is a lousy one
hour highlight package. they need to bring this race back to full wall
to wall coverage nationally like ABC once did and like espn does for
the boston marathon

I'm sure they've decided that there's not enough interest to attract big
money sponsors. Money talks.

The best you can do is get a mile-by-mile update at

Well folks, don't bother, I dropped out at mile 13, my legs were
jelly, my tummy hurt, and I cried like a baby, so I dropped out rather
than embarass myself any further.
There's always next year!

Donovan Rebbechi

Type Rebbechi, Lancelot, Parker Race, Baresch like I did.

If you want to follow someone whose name you don't know and whose bib
you don't know, well...

Well it doesn't matter now, because Donovan really DID drop out. I am
shocked. Imagine that TBR actually being right for once in his life.
Sorry Donnie ol chum, better luck next time!

Thanks for the tip - I've been watching the tracker and just watched
Donovan's finish result come in: 2:58:31 Well done, Don! Come on Lance,
Brian, and Parker!

Oh, and Paula Radcliffe won - yay!

Brian has just come in at 3:19:47 - fantastic. Just waiting for Lance
and Parker now. Come on guys!

Oh and I reported Don's time slightly wrong, it was 2:58:42. Cut-and-
pasted the wrong column.

Parker's finally home in 4:05:51 - you had me on the edge of my seat for
that last 20 minutes or so when I was expecting you back any time. Can't
wait to hear your race report and everyone else's.

Well I'm exhausted now after sitting watching a computer screen for the
last hour or more following everyone's progress. I think I'll go and
have a recovery drink and a few stretches, then sit in an ice bath for a
while. Well done everyone in NY.

OH NO! Parker crashed at mile 24. He was last seen entering a medical
tent. Poor guy...

him in.
RIP fellow runner!

P.S. I'll be naked, covered in soapy bubbles, my large heaving,
perfectly formed breasts poking out. My lil friend "buzzy" will be
busy working me over as I sip champagne.
Ahhhhh....

Yep. Congrats to all how took part today. What I want to know is how both
Lance and Donovan managed to get within seconds of the start line! Donovan
11 seconds and Lance only 6 seconds! Even Parker managed 53 seconds.
