Questions

1 - What subscription service gives you the widest range of races to watch online? What sites serve you guys best to see the races? For example, how are you going to watch Worlds? Chicago Marathon? NYC marathon? Berlin Marathon? Etc.

2 - First, what's the difference between pro, elite, sub-elite, etc. Is there some time cutoff between them? Is there a governing body that specifies the ranges? Second, I've read several places not to drink a sports drink with a energy gel, but never an explanation why. What gives? Along those lines, why the water? Just to wash it down? Thanks!

3 - Rabbits! How long do they run with whoever they’re pacing? If they feel good can then keep running?

4 - What do the super fast people think about us slow pokes on race day?

5 -

Part 1: What are the sponsorship levels in the US? Shoe/Outfit sponsor? To full-time job?

Part 2: How are professional runners compensated? Do they get paid based on performance?

6 - How and why did the time standard for Boston start? And WHY does it keep getting faster?

7 - Is it bad to switch between shoes with different midsole drops?
