New York City Marathon a new york city marathon question?

Question:could someone explain the reasoning behind why the women's winner of this year's new york city marathon will be recieving $30,000 more than the men's winner? if the men and women are running the same race shouldn't the prize money be equal?






Answer:

This is part of the the new "gender reparations" plan that is being imposed by the radical left of NYC.

See? You don't like it when the glass ceiling is over YOUR head, do ya? Sincerely, working women

She "spreads 'em" for the judges. Did I have to point that out?

they are not running the same race. there are an array of incentives to produce certain fields & results (i.e. Americans get bonus money for "placing"....like Meb got last year). note marathons "compete" with marathons and maybe NYC wants to insure the best women runners are in NYC and not Chicago or Berlin (Fall Marathons).

Where did you read this? On their website, it doesn't say that. $100,000 + car for the winner in the open division.
