Most marathoners are more prize money oriented in their training, I suspect. Fewer are medals focused.

On a recent podcast Ed Eyestone said he thinks Conner Mantz and Clayton Young can break the American marathon record.

Where will the Kenyans be? Like they have no real chance for a medal, correct?

No, Conner and Clayton have a very low chance at a medal in Paris. Here are my odds.

I haven’t looked at who is entered, but I see two factors helping them towards a top 5-10 finish.

I bet most on starting line have some mild injury. Doubt Clayton gets over

Clayton has been pretty forthright about injuries in his docu-series. Hasn’t mentioned his hamstring recently.
