At 40, Tucsonan Abdi Abdirahman hasn’t given an inch in his international distance-running career. At last week’s annual TD Beach 10K in Cape Elizabeth, Maine, the four-time Olympian was sixth overall. His time of 28:32, was only 14 seconds off what he ran in his first TD Beach race in 2002. Abdirahman was paid $4,900.
