RRCA Roads Scholars including Amy Yoder Begley (Portland, OR), Brett Gotcher (Flagstaff, AZ), and James Carney (Boulder, CO) will be part of the US contingent at the 18th IAAF World Half Marathon Championships on October 11, in Birmingham, UK.

A total of $245,000 will be offered in prize money, with $30,000 going to the individual champions and $15,000 to the respective men's and women's team champions. The top finish for a U.S. team at this event came last year in Rio de Janeiro where the Team USA women finished fourth. The best team finish for a U.S. men's team was sixth in both 2005 and 2006.
