This week on The Rundown we cover several feel-good stories, including prison inmate Fidel Ybarra who jumped into a marathon impromptu to help a stranger make it to the finish line.  We also bring you results from Rory Linkletter and master’s running standout Tommy Hughes. Plus, we cover an evolving story about multiple Olympics medalist Taoufik Makhloufi who is being investigated for ties to a gym bag filled with drug paraphernalia found at a French training centre.
