RIO DE JANEIRO -- A marathon is not easy. Ainsley Maitland-Niles Jersey . The 26.2-mile race is based on the Greek messenger Pheidippides, who ran that approximate distance to deliver news of the Battle of Marathon in 490 B.C. According to legend, he collapsed and died at the end.The Brazilian version was grueling in its own right. Fifteen of the 155 runners did not finish the race, including Great Britains Tsegai Tewelde, who had to be taken away in a wheelchair.American Meb Keflezighi suffered stomach cramps and had to stop seven times. He threw up on a couple occasions. Nonetheless, he was able to complete the race in under 2 hours and 17 minutes to finish 33rd -- and in spectacular fashion. Waving to the crowd, he slipped on the wet track and crashed to the ground about a foot or so from the finish line. He pulled himself across the line, and then did a set of pushups.Yes, he finished his race by doing pushups.Thats the Meb way of doing things, U.S. teammate Jared Ward said.I guess Ill be known for the epic finish there, Keflezighi said. Somehow it just happened. I saw the finish line and I said Im going to crawl in and then Im going to do pushups.Keflezighi is 41 years old and won the silver medal at the 2004 Olympics in Athens. He broke his hip during the 2008 Olympic trials but recovered to win the 2009 New York marathon and the 2014 Boston marathon. He finished fourth at the London Olympics. He estimates that when you add up all the miles he has run during training, it is equivalent to circling the globe four times.This sport has done more for me than I can ever imagine, he said.Keflezighi has run 24 marathons and plans to run two more to reach 26 as a fitting connection to the marathon length. U.S. teammate Galen Rupp, meanwhile, ran just the second marathon of his life, yet he finished third to take home a bronze medal, Americas first medal in the event since Keflezighis silver. His first marathon was last February when he won the U.S. Olympic trials in Los Angeles.I was definitely hurting. The last couple miles was like I was walking, Rupp said. I just wanted to keep on going and get to the finish line. The marathon is a real special event, and I dont think I really truly understood that until I started doing it in L.A. and now here. Its something special.The 10K has always been my baby for the last 10 years. Its always held a special place for me, but Ive got to move on to the marathon.What marathoners do is incredible. The best ones average less than five minutes a mile, a speed that few of us could even come close to matching over just one mile, let alone 26.The marathon has been part of the Olympics since the first modern Games in 1896. One of the most noted winners was Ethiopias Adebe Bikila, who won the gold medal in 1960 while running barefoot because the shoes Adidas provided him didnt fit.Fellow Ethiopian Feyisa Lilesa won the silver medal Sunday -- finishing behind Kenyan gold medalist Eliud Kipchoge, whose time was 2:08.44 - and afterward he spoke about the difficulties in his native country, where many hundreds of people have been killed in recent months while protesting for political and economic rights.There are many problems in my country, Lilesa said. Its very dangerous in my country.Lilesa said he would consider moving to another country. If so, he has many from which to choose to represent at the 2020 Olympics. Nearly 80 countries were represented in the marathon, including Uzbekistan, Bahrain, Lesotho, Iran, Israel, Hungary and so many others.This was the best victory lap ever in terms of the world, Keflezighi said. You could see India, Ecuador, Peru, Costa Rica, Cuba and all those guys. And to run with that, I enjoyed every bit of it.Cambodias Kuniaki Takizaki and Jordans Methkal Abu Drais were the final two finishers Sunday. As they entered the stadium, Takizaki was grimacing in agony while Abu Drais was smiling that it was almost over. Takizaki pushed himself and crossed the line ahead of Abu Drais so he did not finish last, with a time of 2:45.55. And despite the pain he had been in, Takizaki immediately started jumping and dancing and waving his arms to get the small crowd to cheer with a huge grin across his face.I was very, very tired, Takizaki said. But very, very, very happy.The Olympics arent just about finishing on the podium. They are about finishing, period. Stephan Lichtsteiner Arsenal Jersey .J. -- Marshawn Lynch said Thursday it will be good to get back to football after the Seattle quiet talking running back wrapped up his final mandatory media session of Super Bowl week. Sead Kolasinac Arsenal Jersey . -- For the first time in two months, an opponent was standing up to Alabama. http:///...wobi-Arsenal-Jersey/ . Coach Mike Munchak says Fokou stretched ligaments in his left knee Oct. 13 against Seattle, which could keep out up to five weeks even though the linebacker didnt need surgery. Wiggle It Jiggleit let Always B Miki clear on the way to the half, tracked him until the stretch, and then slipped up the passing lane for a 1:49 1/5 victory in the $325,000 Dan Patch for older pacers on Friday night at Hoosier Park.Driver Montrell Teague put Wiggle It Jiggleit on the lead early from post one, and the field lined up behind him before the 27 second opening quarter. Always B Miki (Dave Miller) settled in fourth from post nine after the start, but then rolled first-over in the backstretch and took control before the 54 4/5 half.Freaky Feet Pete (Trace Tetrick) wound up third after Always B Miki landed on the engine, so Tetrick elected to send him after the leader past the half. He would advance on the rim around the final bend and was positioned only three-quarters of a length behind Always B Miki at the 1:22 4/5 three-quarters.In the stretch Always B Miki was able to put away Freaky Feet Petes try, but a patient Teague waited until the Hoosier Park passing lane came available, then guided his charge into it. Once shown the clear track, Wiggle It Jiggleit was able to get around Always B Miki, winning by a length at the finish line. All Bets Off (Ricky Macomber Jr.) and Shamballa (Scott Zeron) rallied to finish in a dead-heat for third, and they were followed by Mel Mara (Corey Callahan).I know if I put him in any poosition he can prevail either way, said Montrell Teague. Danny Welbeck Jersey. I rushed out of there, and nobody came, so I got an easy fraction. Miki did a bull rush, and I let him go. I remembered we had a passing lane now, so I took advantage of it. I was a little bit worried when I got Miki on the front and Pete right alongside him, but we got the job done.Clyde Francis trains Wiggle It Jiggleit, a 4-year-old gelding by Mr. Wiggles, for George Teague Jr. Inc. and the Teague Racing Partnership. Wiggle It Jiggleit scored his 34th victory from 44 career starts, and he has now earned $3,367,922. The slight 8-5 second choice behind Always B Miki, Wiggle It Jiggleit paid $5.40.With the rail coming in, I thought he had a great chance, George Teague added. When Miki bull-rushed to the front, it was a good position to be in. You want to be following him. Pete came first-over again, and they were going to take a little bit of starch out of each other. The passing lane came up, and like Montrell said, it was a perfect trip. Trip wins races, and he tripped out well.I like mine raced hard. He races hard when hes supposed to. Hes better than he ever was. Hes sounder, hes fresher, so I dont see why we dont race. ' ' '
