      Boulder, Colorado was once the mecca of distance running. But in recent years it's seemed to have fallen out of favor with many of the top American athletes (although it still rertains its appeal to many international stars from Kenya, Japan, Romania, and New Zealand).

The veterans and the newcomers would soon unite in hopes of putting...
