Watching the world’s best compete fires you up to achieve your own feats of greatness. When it comes to running, participation and spectating go hand in hand.

This is absolutely true. I got to see Kara Goucher and the American elites run in the Olympic Marathon Trials a year ago in Houston. It was amazing to see “the best,” and did indeed spur me on for months afterwards to run my own best. I still think of that experience when I need a boost in my running.
