Article Abstract:
Of the more than 100,000 runners who race in US marathons, a few are cheaters sneaking in at the finish and unless detected, stealing the purse of the rightful winners. Several cheaters who were caught are named in the hopes that the shame factor will deter other would-be cheaters.
