Why congrats to McMillan Elite for Martin Fagan?
Martin Fagan is not part of McMillan Elite. There are clear differences.
Adidas spends a decent amount of money to sponsor McMillan Elite and does not want athletes that are not represented by Adidas to be considered part of the group.
There is another group that is also called Team USA Arizona. These are athletes that are also coached by Greg McMillan that are not sponsored by Adidas. However, Fagan is not allowed to be part of this group either because funding for this group requires the group to be Americans Only.
Branding is a funny thing and it may seem like semantics but NY Marathon insists that you call it ING NYC Marathon.
