I guess the economy is also having an effect on the Greatest Race on Earth. Oh No! I guess the sponsorship has fallen for the race this year.
Please read this CNN article it is fantastic! Shows that the runners do the race for the love of it and not the money. Plus Jeff King one of the past winners donated $50,000 which he won from a previous race. His money went into the winners purse for this year.
