Download your marathon videos!

Download your marathon videos!

This is a bit more complicated than getting the pictures off the site...

In Google Chrome (couldn't get it to work in Internet Explorer someone else might be able to, and by the way once you try Chrome and see how much faster it is you'll NEVER go back), click on options (wrench icon), then go to tools, then go to view source.

Then you need to scroll down to about line 235 where you will see a link that ends in ".js" Mine looked like:
http://content.bitsontherun.com/players/8Yb5uXHe-GaRNjw0M.js

Cut and paste that link into another tab/window.

You'll get what looks like a ton of random characters, scroll about 2/3 of the way down until you see a separate section.

There will be four links back to back, the last of which looks something like:
http://content.bitsontherun.com/vid...95495752&sig=d50bfd2e7328c6d193acc75fe0b347b3

Cut and paste that link into another tab/window.

That will bring up your video small in the center of the screen. Right click it, do a save video as, and bam, you have an .mp4! Repeat the process for all four videos and enjoy.

I have a share ware app that use to work in Explorer but have not tried since changing over to Chrome. I too use Chrome for most all browsing; the exception being Government database applications that require an older version of the underlying browser. For some reason it is not backwards compatible.

Hmmm doesn't allow me to click and save it. But I'm using Safari on a mac. May have to try on other browsers to see if I can get it to work.

Matt has way too much time on his hands. LOL.

I just download the video to realplayer. It pops up above the video, click on it, and the download starts on it's own.

Using Windows Explorer.
