Apparently, under some degree of pressure from sane, logical people, Nike has reconsidered and declared o’Connell “a” winner—but not “the” winner of the San Francisco Nike Women’s Marathon. Way to straddle the fence, Nike. I wonder how many of the elite runners who “won” were sponsored by Nike? Hmmmm.
