Yeah, you mentioned Kip Chigiblei, Hassan, also Bridg Kosky, the former world record holder. Like it's a stacked
00:00:05
field. It's just amazing. I can't think of many other sport in the world where
00:00:09
an ordinary everyday weekend warrior can take part on the same course or the same
00:00:13
playing platform as the same day as the world's best. It's a unique opportunity,
00:00:17
>> you know. It really is. And that I think that one of the main attractions of
00:00:20
running and running events and the marathon is exactly that when you compare it to other sports like rugby,
00:00:27
like league or any ball sport as a sport, they have a lot of people who go and watch and that's nice. But what we
00:00:34
have is a lot of people who take part who are so emotionally engaged in running and the event because they are
00:00:42
participants just the same as Kip Chigi is.
