Great job Scott Fauble, former UP runner turning in a 4th place performance in the trials 10k! Just one spot away...

Kincaid advances to 5k final in fashion, winning his heat. Ran controlled within the pack then made a big move up to lead the last 250m or so. Great to see a guy in a Pilot uniform getting a lot of love on national TV!

Heard his last lap was a 0:53. He understands these types of tactical races. Let's hope he can stay in the mix in the final.

Scott Fauble came in 7th overall at the Boston Marathon and was the first American across the finish line.

Re: Fauble 4th at trials 10k
It was a personal best for Scott in 2:09:09, and he and fellow American Jared Ward (BYU) took turns moving to the front to urge an honest pace and avoid any “cat-and-mouse” tactics. Both Americans wound up setting personal-best times.SouthCarolinaPilot wrote:Scott Fauble came in 7th overall at the Boston Marathon and was the first American across the finish line.
Using emphasis we can all appreciate and identify with, Scott had this to say after the race:
When I was leading, I was thinking holy (expletive). I’m leading the (expletive) Boston Marathon. It was a surreal experience to be leading a race that I grew up watching on TV. I kind of idolized the race and the experience, and I just tried to soak in the moment of being in the front of the pack. I didn’t go to the front to feel that, but when I was in front, I definitely, made a point to be like, ‘this is pretty amazing’.

2:09:10 is the 10th fastest on the all-time list for Americans knocking Bill Rodger down to 11.

Re: Fauble 4th at trials 10k
Tons of inaccuracies in that article DD...
"Fauble ran the 11th fastest time from a United States born marathon runner in history and the eight fastest time by an American in Boston Marathon history. He and former University of Oregon runner Galen Rupp are the only American runners to break 2:10:00 since 2013."
Jared Ward (former BYU runner) also ran under 2:10:00 in the same race....so 3 have run under 2:10.
It may have been 11th overall time but 10th fastest (somebody else may have had two of the fastest times bumping him down a spot).

Back in 2019:
Scott Fauble, a former University of Portland cross-country runner, placed seventh in the Boston Marathon, the top finish by a runner from the United States.
Fauble, 30, finished the 26.2-mile course in 2:08:52. He was also the top American to finish in 2019 (seventh, 2:09:09).
Evans Chebet of Kenya won the men's race in 2:06:51.
Reigning Olympic champ Perez Jepchirchir won the 50th women's race of the Boston Marathon in 2:21:01.
Fauble raced for the Pilots from 2012-2015. He finished 12th in the 2014 NCAA cross-country championships, when the Pilots finished third as a team.

Re: Fauble 4th at trials 10k
Wow.
2:08:52 sounded familiar. I looked it up and that was the winning time in 1983 when Alberto Salazar brought home the bacon.
Two Americans have won it since, and except for the ocasional 5 other outliers sprinkled in, only Kenyans and Ethiopians have finished first.
Since Salazar won, 12 winners posted faster times.
And that time would have won the marathon in 7 of the last 10 years.
