Good answer to the pacing problem for downhill starts in marathon races like Boston. Many thanks.
I bumped into Pat Clohessy, Robert DeCastella's coach, at the track tonight. Have asked Pat if he could lay his hands on Deek's Boston splits from his 2:07 win there, a p.b. Will post here if we get them.
What a GREAT SHOW you've got!
