Puskedra looks enormous.
That top pic....wow, great perspective!
Apparently Russell's hamstring was bothering her. She dropped out around 12k
haha funny
Tegenkamp on NBC now talking about 10k
That British commentator said Tatyana McFadden "has the world at her feet." I think he realized almost immediately, as he stuttered for a second.
Ok. Development in men's race some 1:29 into the race.
American Elkanah Kibet is dropping of the lead pack. Ndungu and Gebru were pushing for a bit.
Gebru has a 2:05:49 pb and wasn't even in our preview as he must have been a late add to the field: This is his 4th marathon of the year:
Marathon
2:08:56 SB 8 Stand Chart Dubai 23 Jan
2:07:26 SB (28) 1 Daegu 5 Apr
2:08:14 1 Tamarack Ottawa 24 May
Here is what we wrote about Ndungu in our preview:
Sammy Ndungu – Kenya, 27 years old, 2:07:04 PR (2012 Otsu Lake Biwa), 60:55 half
Last two marathons: 1st, 2015 Otsu Lake Biwa (2:09:08); 1st, 2014 Lisbon (2:08:21)
Ndungu has won each of his last two marathons, but considering those are the only races he’s run since the start of 2014, he’s a bit of a question mark in Chicago. His winning margins (2:12 in Lisbon, 2:02 in Otsu over European marathon champ Daniele Meucci) are very impressive so the question becomes how those performances will translate against a (relatively) big-time field in Chicago. He was only seventh here three years ago, but Ndungu has clearly made progress since then and the time is right for another bite at the major marathon apple. Anywhere from 10th to 1st is in play.
RIGHT! How in the F do they not do a split screen or a box of the race going on while they're interviewing. THEY HAVE THE TECHNOLOGY

Universal Sports guy is completely bored with himself, justifiably so.
It's like he's doing audio commentary for the blind. "And now they are heading under the bridge, there is Jimi Hendrix playing. The sun is shining and the breeze is blowing. I see a butterfly. A plastic bag drifts by."
NBC stream is working once again.
I haven't heard Larry Rawson's voice. I guess he's doing the local espn broadcast.
and another mens break missed thanks to wheelchair inteview
This guy is amazing. I love him. I'm waiting for "boom goes the dynamite."
Does anyone know where the Eversport commentator is from?? South Africa?
The move is on. Chumba, Kuma and Kitwara have pulled away just before 20 miles.
Big move in men's race. Dickso Chumba ish ammring. The only guys to go with him are Abera Kuma and Sammy Kitwara.
Jonesy was just so good!
Did anyone notice Rob Watson's pacing? He's been projected to finish 2:13:11 at every checkpoint. Guys have been moving ahead and behind him but he's just staying right exactly there.
Stop being followers, Ethiopian runners!
Kitwara and Chumba doing great! Do some work, Kuma|
The wind is windy, according to Eversports guy.
"the heat was hot and the ground was dry but the air was full of sound"
Fernando Cabada update?
I’m a D2 female runner. Our coach explicitly told us not to visit LetsRun forums.
