Thanks to Marist Running Alum Colin Frederickson for sending me the link to this excellent article on grantland.com about the rapid ascent of female distance running.
The author of this article, Katie Baker, is an excellent writer whose work C-Fred and I both enjoy on grantland.com. Her topic is relevant, with Sunday being the NYC Marathon. And she does a great job of reporting and writing on this complex topic.
You can crunch numbers any way you want, but the bottom line is this: Women's running has come a long way in a short generation, and it's great to see.
Best of luck to all those running NYC on Sunday ... including Marist Running Alums Walsh and Schab.
