I have done many marathons; mainly because opportunities are plentiful here.

I understand and respect the argument that parts of the country are under-developed and that you might consider the event “fluff”…

I, for one, think it’s excellent that a marathon was hosted in Pakistan! Way yo go.

And to the writer complaining about the amount of prize money as say this alone is evidence that it was truly for the people and not the media…

I was disappointed by the prize money for special persons though. $200 for winning an complete race? It takes a big heart and determination to come out and particiapate for them and its physically tough too. Comon, I think we can do better than that next time.
