Pittsburgh, PA - The Dicks Sporting Goods Pittsburgh Half Marathon/Marathon took runners on a wet tour on the streets May 15, 2011. Ryan Sheehan of the Hanson Running project took the lead early in the half but a strong group of Africans including the half marathon winner Nicholas Kurgat broke away after 10km by running a 4:43. In the Mens Marathon a large group of Africans including runnerup David Rutoh pushed the pace early however, Jeff Eggleston of Flagstaff, Arizona who was brought in to help pace the elite american men for the first 18miles at the Olympic Qualifying Standard time was not far behind. Eggleston caught the group shortly after his pacing duties were over and started to push the pace which caused the group of runners to be trimmed down. Eventually with 2 miles to go the race between Rutoh and Eggleston however Rutoh could not hold the pace and Eggleston held on for victory.
