Mirroring Benji step by step...

Posted by simon on 11/2/2006

Well, I may never run as fast as Olympic marathoner Benji Durden (once ranked in the world's top ten), but some 20 years after his years at the very top, at least I can briefly get near him. And check the style!! This was completely unintentional; I was just concentrating on drafting him in a windy Boulder Runners Club 5k track race. My wife Abby presented me with this picture showing an amazing synchronization of styles. It didn't last -- Benji dropped me about 25 yards after this was taken!!
Now, if I can just get behind El Guerrouj for a few yards.....
