Philly Half Thread - 9/20/2009 7:15AM Reply | Return to Index | Report Post
How come there isn't a thread on the race? I overslept and missed the first 5k (thank you universalsports for making me get up at 3am to watch nothing).

Hall's splits so far

4:48 mile 1
4:40 mile 2, 9:29 at 2 miles
4:43 mile #3, 14:12 at three miles. He is a little off of record pace right now, but looking great. 14:42 5K split
4:46 mile for the fourth mile.
The pace for Hall's existing American record of 59:43 is 4:33 per mile. Who here can run one 4:33 mile?
441 - 23:40
444 -2824 10k was like 2925 to 2927

He's basically running 4:43 mile pace which will be really good. I'm tired of hearing the announcers go negative.

I'm surprised there wasn't a thread as well. I figured more people would be into this race than Berlin particularly since it's at 7:30 am and not 3:00 am.

GO Hall.

PS. Can someone please tell Juli Henner to go back to coaching and stop talking? Of course a 4-way finish would be fun.

Wow, I've only been watching for 5 minutes and she can't stop saying ridiculous things.

Wanjiru ran 1:01:08 last week in the midst of his Chicago preparation. He is the best in the world.

Hall is averaging 4:44 for the first 15k. That projects to 62:14. It would be nice to see them pick it up and get to 61mins.

This brings back good memories for me. I ran my half pr thre. 67 low?

They'd have to run 430s on the back half?

How do you think he looks? Does he have that in him?

This is JOKE. After getting up at 3am to watch Berlin and it's not on live.

I have to watch them go to a commercial with 30 seconds left in a sprint finish?

Competitor.com please some ad isn't worth it.

How could they allow a commercial break with a 100m to go in the race? They just lost a lot of fans with that boneheaded move!
