27 Km (1:19:01) just three runners in the lead... Geb and 2 pacers...
on an interview an Italian interviewed during the race stated that it was fast @ 61:27ish at the half way point
30k world best is 1:28:00. Hope they certified the split marker...

Well, exciting start, nice performance. Few people in the world could run <2:05 and "disappoint" us! Imagine if Hall ran a 2:04:57 - we'd be going nuts!!!
Enough forum-cast for now, time for bed in the Eastern time zone :)
