The men’s races this weekend at the Houston Half Marathon may not offer a Jordan Hasay vs Molly Huddle matchup quite like the women's race, but it does trot out an extremely deep field with a mixture of top Ethiopians, Kenyans, and Americans. 

Twelve years have passed since Deena Kastor's spectacular 2006, which saw her set American records in both the half and full marathon distances in 67:34 and 2:19:36. Prior to 2016 Kastor was truly in a league of her own, as no other American woman had ever broken 68 minutes for the half marathon, and to this day no other American has run faster than 2:20 for the full distance.
