Mike Donnelly wound up 14th in 37:31.

Pete Sherry (10th, 37:20) leads Keith Dowling (13th, 37:27).
Dowling is best known for his marathon exploits.
Chris Graff finished 12th in 37:26.

The good news is that it didn't happen sooner, the bad news is that halfway through lap three (of six) in the men's 12k, our camera's shutter stopped functioning properly and we were unable to get any more photos.

Meb Keflezighi came from behind to win, narrowly beating out Abdi Abdirahman. Both runners were timed in 35:45. Alan Culpepper finished third (35:51), Matt Downin remained in fourth (36:00), Dathan Ritzenhein moved up to take fifth (36:19) and Greg Jimmerson grabbed the final World Championship qualifying spot in sixth (36:27).

Between 5k and 6k, Alan Culpepper leads Abdi Abdirahman and Meb Keflezighi.
