First no updates from the womens field, then missing the break of Meb and Boit, then missing the break from Boit, then missing Meb catching and eventually passing Boit. They also missed how the womens field dropped Flanagan.
All in all, just plain awful.
The Brojos have pointed it out on multiple occasions: having the womens field start half an hour before the men is not a good idea.
Here is the fix:
9:20 Mens elite start (subelites with under 2:30 credentials can chose whether to start with pro field or the wave 1)
9:40 Womens elite start (again, subelite may start here or wave 1)
10:00 wave 1
The great thing about this approach would be that you could cover the mens race in its entire length, then cut over to the last 30+ min of the womens race.
