This caught me by surprise but it appears Joe Gambles was photographed wearing headphones on the run during Challenge Roth. Not only did he not get DQ'd, but he made the podium with a 4th place finish.... Below is the link by Slowtwitch with images from the race. Gambles image is toward the bottom of the site. Is anybody else seeing this?

Edit: Just looked into this further and headphones are allowed during the marathon.
