Talk:Army Ten-Miler

Image just added
I understand that there was some sort of related event in the Middle East, but being that the article is about the race in DC/Virginia, shouldn't the image reflect that? At the VERY least, shouldn't there be content added to the article about the race/location in the image?

Thanks. --Omarcheeseboro (talk) 04:48, 27 December 2009 (UTC)


 * It's clear from the image and its description that the United States Army is holding the Army Ten-Miler race in Afghanistan as well since they are on duty over there. So I think this article should cover such information. The image that I placed in the infobox helps improve the article as the other image is too small and has no proper description. You are free to change it any time you find a better one.--AYousefzai (talk) 04:56, 27 December 2009 (UTC)


 * Ok, you agree that the article should cover such information about the related race. I think that should come before adding the image. Right now it's confusing.


 * There's some images with the allowed copyright on flickr, but there not too good.


 * I guess the best thing to do is to leave the image you just added and add content from this ref.


 * Thanks. --Omarcheeseboro (talk) 05:03, 27 December 2009 (UTC)


 * Agree! I'll try to upload a more suitable image for the infobox and then put the current one down below where you added the info on the shadow race.--AYousefzai (talk) 05:33, 31 December 2009 (UTC)

largest ten-mile race
largest ten-mile race? So are other races just under or just over 10 miles?--EnigmaMcmxc (talk) 18:20, 10 January 2010 (UTC)


 * Largest refers to number of participants. --Omarcheeseboro (talk) 21:16, 10 January 2010 (UTC)


 * Cheers for the clarification, just seems a lil confusing :)--EnigmaMcmxc (talk) 02:39, 11 January 2010 (UTC)


 * No problem. This is from the Washington Post's recap of the last running of the race


 * A record registration of 30,000 runners filled in six days in April, and some 23,000 finished the race, making it the country's largest 10-mile race, a distinction regained after the 2008 Broad Street Run in Philadelphia edged Army's total of 18,960 finishers last year.


 * I'll see if I can find a succinct way to reword the article. --Omarcheeseboro (talk) 03:04, 11 January 2010 (UTC)
