Alex Zanardi and the New York City Marathon.

Alex Zanardi in London.
Yesterday Alex Zanardi was in Padua for the opening of ExpoBici 2012.
After the big success of the London Paralympics, he was ready for the New York City Marathon.
Fact is, he cannot partecipate. His entry has been refused.
Why? Because he's too fast!
I know it sounds unbelievable, but it seems that there are some new rules that can leave out of the competition the athletes that are too fast.
Incredible!
I think I'll write an email to the New York City Runners to ask why they took this decision.
If you want to do the same, you can find the mail address here.
