Up to this point, 120 men have met the qualifying standards to compete in the 2008 U.S. Olympic Team Trials for the marathon, which will be held the day before next year's ING New York City Marathon. And Matt Pelletier of Warwick is one of them.

The 27-year-old, who competes for Running Heritage, was one of the 44 men who qualified at the LaSalle Bank Chicago Marathon on Oct. 22, when he placed 39th with a time of 2:20:26.

Stay tuned for more about Pelletier and the great season he has had this year.
