Brian Finishes 22nd in Olympic Men's Marathon, Beijing

Hanson-Brooks team member Brian Sell finished 22nd in the Olympic Men's Marathon on Sunday, Aug. 24, 2008. His U.S. teammates Dathan Ritzenhein and Ryan Hall finished in the 9th and 10th spots, respectively. Brooks is hugely proud of Brian and all of his Hanson-Brooks teammates. We look forward to a shining future together. Go Hansons!

The Special-Edition T6 Racer Brian Wore When Brian Sell competed against the world's best marathoners in Beijing, he wore a special version of the Brooks T6 Racer, pictured above. All non-mesh overlays were removed from the forefoot to suit Brian's preference for running his marathons with no socks. The shoe's tongue features the American flag and Brian's nickname: "Sellbo." The new T6 is now available for purchase. The Hansons-Brooks Documentary Video The story of how the Hanson brothers' vision came to life. See what the Team is all about.
