Huzzah!
I’m a little behind, but apparently the USATF has decided to give marathon race directors the leeway to allow headphones during races. No more sneaking in your iPods, risking a DNF after all your hard training. Or only running marathons that choose to go against the USATF.
Excellent news, as I’m definitely bringing my iPod Shuffle when we run the Newport Oregon marathon in 12 days (<gulp>). Gotta load it up with the new Green Day…
