The Marathon in New York City

The first sign of the coming pandemonium: two motorcycles. People line up hours in advance to cheer on the runners. In a few minutes the runners will start running up the street. This will continue on for hours.

If you have never been surrounded by press trucks, police cars and motorcycles, most likely you've spent most of your running career in the pack.

Guess what, this leader did what most leaders at this point do, come in something other than first.

But think of it, a moment of glory.

A couple of minutes later come the women, No, she's not in first place,

But she's in second place!
