~10 minutes until the start
Didn't see one yet.
They just showed the weather. The temp was nice but the wind is 9 mph out of the N/NW at 9 mph. So they will be running into the wind at the start for the first miles. Then have the wind more with them until mile 23. Then back into the wind.

Weather.com shows a wind of 2mph but I'm trusting the tv people.

PS> That's a joke.
That's actually ideal. You want a slightly slower start and I'd like to see Ritz on tv for a while.
Ritz is at the very tail of the main pack.
4:48-4:41 for the first 2 men's miles.
Roughly 10:45 for the leading woman from Russia.
Wow. Ritz is already off teh back?
Ritz already dropped
Are those splits correct? Does the wind come into this?
Perfect for me. I'm using the watchatletics link.
they did not introduce werknesh kidane at the start, that makes me mad, they should show respect to the legend of running.
