I've also thought that major marathons now are to terrorists what a crippled rabitt is to coyotes. Years ago the Times had a lead in article to the Marathon which called people who trained hard hoping to attain a particular place or time "snobby elitests." It's not new. There's just more of it. Why are there no articles about golfers trying to get under 100? A friend of mine asked me a few days ago if transwomen runners bought men's or women's running shoes and vice versa. Finally, based on experience I believe that 71 is the new 69.
