Running and Triathlon Links Monday!


Here's the latest and greatest on running from the last week:

Shamrock Run Portland Results! - Did you run?

Fatuma Sado wins LA Marathon, Gender Challenge, New Car, $155,000 - not a bad day's work

Peter Kirui and Firehiwot Dada take NYC Half Marathon - Oregon's Kara Goucher takes 3rd in pre-Olympic tuneup

Canadians take the win at Chuckanut 50k in Bellingham - Oregonian Max King was in the lead but took a wrong turn late

Another take on the Chuckanut 50k, from the Bellingham Herald

And a very nice article on Bellingham's Chuckanut 50k from Running Times

Kenyan 10,000m Olympic Trials to take place at Prefontaine Classic in Eugene
...probably - the Kenyan Governing body, Athletics Kenya, seems to put out new, confusing information on this daily

London Olympic Organizers will supply 150,000 condoms to the athletes in the Olympic village - for 16,000 beds - let's see, the Games last for about two weeks, so that's about one and a half condoms per night for every "pair" of athletes in the village...wow - busy, busy, busy

Interesting new Reebok ad - what's your call? Degrading to women? Degrading to men? Sexist? Funny?

A review of Tyr's new $1200 wetsuit - sometimes I hate triathlon

Hot, sexy pictures of tricked-out tri bikes - if you're into that kind of thing

Ironman Champ Chrissie Wellington is going on a book tour - she doesn't even come close to the NW, so if you want her to sign your book, you'll have to travel a bit
