They said he was too "old" at 38? GTFO. Meb just won the USA Half Marathon Championships in 1:01:23, taking home his 22nd national title.
What's that for the old man? Oh, just a nifty little 4:42 per mile.
"...there have been people who
are more talented than me — but no one should out-work me. No one
should out-smart me. If they have the talent I can’t do anything about
it, but other small things I think I can do and help me be a better
runner and a better human being and a better person and hopefully
inspire others to get the best out of themselves." — Meb
Run to win Meb!
