Has anyone used the 90mm for shooting sports, particularly marathons and runners? I know the 50-140mm would probably be the better choice but was curious about the 90mm for shooting marathons. One potential problem using the 90mm is spacing between me and the runners but I would have some ability to move closer or further away. The 90mm would also double as an outdoor portrait lens as well so it would not be solely a marathon lens. Yup, simple solution is purchase both lenses!

thanks for your time, feedback, and ideas

X90 - a little faster than a marathoner.  The 90 is an awesome lens for sports if you have the clear shot.
