Can't help but think that the wins and records done barefoot and without refreshments in the 1960s are still a bit more about the runner than running with essentially spring loaded shoes, lab-optimized nutrition gels, computer optimized pacing strategies and multisensor real-time measurement devices. It's also somewhat ironic for a race supposedly modeling a messenger running the distance in an emergency situation.
