Josh 6,553 Posted April 15 #611 Share Posted April 15 16 minutes ago, Cinnamon Bun said: I'm not sure it does as there's apparently too many downhill sections for it to be counted as a qualification event. @Josh has commented on this before, I reckon he'll have the answers. I’m pretty much in the unknown as well. But I saw an article on a Canadian athletics website https://runningmagazine.ca that explained that our athlete (Tristan Woodfine) competing at the Boston Marathon has to finish top five to qualify for the Olympics. I believe the same applies for all of the platinum marathons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Bun 409 Posted April 15 #612 Share Posted April 15 Just now, Josh said: I’m pretty much in the unknown as well.

I believe the same applies for all of the platinum marathons. So the athletes only qualify through this by getting top 5 and not by achieving the time but finishing outside top 5?

Jur 570 Posted April 15 #614 Share Posted April 15 Boston is too downhill to count. But because it's a Platinum Label event, top5 qualify to the games because that's happens in all Platinum events. Weldu serves as an example or that. She didnt finnish top5 and despite doind the standar isnt qualified Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
