42,000 kilometers? Wake me up on Thursday
My track team used to volunteer in the mid 90's to be the runners to the guy who updated that white board. We would get the splits called in off to the side of the media room, write them down and run it up to the guy updating the board. It was always a great way to follow the race. I would have thought they updated their tracking methods years ago?
No sign of Jon Gault.
Neeley looks fine. Good arm carriage. Kenyans high arm carriage.

Wesley testing the field and no one bites. Commentator dismissive of that Japanese leader forgetting what happened with Meb.
Why are the women running so damn slow?
Is this Japanese dude committing early marathon suicide or what? lol
Go Shingo Go!
BAA link is watchable in the UK for me anyway.
I bow down to you!

This has to be the slowest start to a major marathon I've seen in more than a decade.

You've never watched NYC then
Watch it every year dude. Tell me when the men started the first two miles over 10 minutes.
Larry just said it's ideal weather for the marathon. Maybe for the spectators. It's warm for the elites. Not scorching but certainly warm.
To those of you listening on the NBCSN, how is the broadcast?

Boston is often tactical.
Can someone please tell me why larry rawson is ssaying these are "excellent conditions." I wouldn't say they are bad but I wouldn't use the word excellent.
After Japanese dude, the men's pack came through over 10:15 at two miles. That hasn't happened in NYC since the 1980s bruh. I was watching then too.
Igarashi's lead is 21 secs now.
