The Columbus Marathon in Ohio says runners who have to drop out deserve more than a bus ride to the finish line. Organizers of the annual 26-mile-plus race said Thursday they’re offering a lift in a stretch limousine to anyone who has to stop and can’t go any farther. Race director Darris Blackford said he wanted something better to boost runners’ spirits than the school bus he once had to ride. About 5,000 people are expected to run in the Oct. 17 race.
