What does that come out to for a full marathon?
4:51/mi = 2:07:04
Ritz has a nice Japanese/Chinese group in his pack. Looks ideal for him.
Ritz seems to be running his race. Running realistically.
Men 29:58 pace at 10k which is 2:06.
Ritz 30:08 2:07 pace.
Jimmy Grabow 30:59, 2:10:44 pace.
43 minutes in and Ritz is still about 12 seconds down. He's wearing black compression socks! He's following Hartmann, who is setting the pace for what looks like a group of six or seven.
Hartman looks like he can really cut through the wind. Human air shield.
They are now heading downwind.
Ritz 45:10 through 15k
