Shouldnt they be more like 14:10 for under an hour?

21 minutes in and Rupp and Meucci are now three seconds off the back of the leaders, with the gap threatening to widen
That's it. Rupp looks like he won't even be first mzungu.
he has bigger fish to fry?!?!?
Just showed Jepkosgei as women's leader. Rupp and other white guy dropping by about 5-10 seconds.
Rupp's pace, and confidence, eroding with every step.
This can't be good for his Boston performance.
Maybe he'll dnf and blame it on plantar fasciitis
Just wait. He's gonna throw down a 27:30 last 10 k, blasting back for the win, yelling "April fools!" as he crosses the finish in glee.
I just got a call from a friend down on the course said rumor has it Rupp might have a broken tibia or something....
Rupp's spirit has a broken tibia.
Barselius Kipyego and Vincent Yator are leading a pack of 10 men up front. Galen Rupp well of the back, about 9 seconds behind.
They need to show more of the babystroller chicks. Some of them were pretty hot, and with this high quality Russian-supported video stream, little is left to the imagination.
Just showed 28:32 for 10k
Some African is bolting ahead like he stole something.
Olympic 10k bronze medallist/Dubai Marathon champ Tamirat Tola has made a MASSIVE move after the leaders hit 10k in 28:32. He's put eight seconds on the field in a matter of a minute or two.

One of the announcers is David Monti (Race Results Weekly, NYRR elite athlete coordinator). Idk who the other guy is apart from that his name is Jim.
Possibly Jim Moberly of RunCzech.
10K in 30:05 for the women....yikes
30:05 for women's first 10k?!?!?!
Is that possible? The women's 10k road WR was only 30:21
That would be Joyciline Jepkosgei and Violah Jepchumba up front.
