Bechtol '07 Wins San Francisco Marathon
Keith Bechtol won the San Francisco Marathon today in 2:23.28. Bechtol was a multi time All-American and still stands #4 on the all time 10K list with a 28:55. Keith is a PhD student in Stanford (Thanks for the heads up from Jared Campbell. If you have alumni information, please e-mail kenhalla@gmail.com). I just received the newsclip above from Keith's mom. Apparently the organizers didn't think he was a legitimate runner and there was some question as to whether he ran the entire race! Guess they don't follow this site!

Broke the course record too. Probably still behind on mileage for the week. Go Mad dog!
