And just as field event athletes are hurt in AOY voting because they can only do one discipline, a marathoner is hurt because he/she can't compete but 2 or three times a year at their main event, whereas Devers can run every third or fourth day for virtually the entire summer.
If Radcliffe runs close to sub-30:00 in München and breaks 2:20 again in Chicago she's gotta be AOY, unless Devers breaks the WR. sideshow
