Weird how the sound "booms" from time to time, are they broadcasting in the field too ?

True that. It's crazy to me to watch such accomplished guys like Lomong and LAGAT be sideshows. So weird.

Kipchoge is struggling. I dropped off a meter, and them came back up. And he is laboring.

So freaking ironic from Porn Star Paula.

Everybody talks about the runners but how long does the Tesla battery last?

The idea was several fold, to get new information to inspire new products.

does anyone know who kevin hart just interviewed? big black dude with the pink hat.

Kipchoge is amazing.

NEED MORE GAVZ!!!

who's the really short runner pacing w/Eliud right now?

Commentators just talked about Kevin getting his fans to join him on runs, I did a complete 180. Glad he's here. Does a good job at talking about himself kidding (a bit too much perhaps) but always brings it back to these guys. He's probably doing a lot on the ground keeping fans entertained

It's pretty damn impressive that Kipchoge has outlasted Tadesse and Desisa this long. Kevin Hart is just not doing it for me. But I appreciate the effort.

Wow they're showing off the shoe again

Kipchoge definitely appears to be feeling the pace right now.

Cadence has been very consistent since the start at around 189. He looks fantastic - very hopeful.

Not a good night for Nike. The Olympic 5k champ Matthew Centrowitz just ran 13:48 for 5k.

And King Ches just got smokes by Justyn Knight 1317 to 1324.

They are at like 16 miles. Coming in, I was thinking Kipchoge needed to back off well before 150-16 if he wants to finish at a good pace. Maybe I'm wrong but I'd back off for the WR. JK thinks about 20 miles is the most anyone can handle at the this pace . 20 miles at 1:59:59 is basically equivalent ot the WR. But then if you do that the final 5 miles could be ugly.

You keep talking about this like it's a race, like there's anything relevant associated with finishing. It's pretty clear Kipchoge is going to go at 2:00 pace until he implodes.

They are all in on the 2:00 gimmick. And I don't like it, but kudos to them for sticking to their guns.

You guys have also underestimated their chances, again because you keep comparing it to a race. This is a science experiment.

Do you think that caffeine/anti-inflammatory drugs are in the fluids they take now that they see Kipchoge falling a bit? Might explain why we haven't seen them take fluids in the last... 30 minutes?
