I wonder if the IAAF site will update the 5km and 10km splits on the results page before we get to the end of the case.

coming up on two hours into it...
they started at 9am Daegu time
9pm US east coast time
finish will be around 30, 35 mins from now

Alisa McKaig is probably happy she's
not in Blowing Rock NC right now!


I doubt there is anywhere else in the word she'd rather be than in Daegu competing in the World Championships.

I guess an announcer can get away with saying anything if you have a british accent

Eurosport commentator is bitching out his cameramen or producers for missing the break in the marathon, he sounds so pissed off he doesn't want to narrate the rest of the race!

God, this is an embarrassment. Why can't they do a split screen?

The only people i've ever seen use a split screen is the BBC.

Every marathon I try to watch on tv is TERRIBLY DONE. Normally we miss the big break in the men's race because they are showing the 7th place female finish but this tops that!!!!

Looking at those women steeplechasers....yes...rudimentary is putting it mildly. You need to come a long way, baby.

Akaba has come up from 7th to 5th and moving up on 4th but looks like no chance of catching top 3.

Eurosport commentators are usually pretty good in most sports.

I loved the stack at the drink station.

Akaba has now moved into 5th. Being Japanese she wants to finish in the top 3 so she can have automatic entry for the Olympics....it is not going to happen for her.
