Man these guys look good. I agree with the commentators. The 3 of Kipchoge, Kipsang and Adola look like they are jogging at 25km. Kipruto looks teh best but those 3 looked totally at ease as they grabbed their water.
Again, these other 2 guys are capable of breaking the WR.
Guye Adola (Ethiopia): 26 years old, 59:06 HM pb, 3rd at World Half Marathon champs in 2014. He won the Rome-Ostia Half Marathon in March in 59:18.
Vincent Kipruto (Kenya): 30 years old, 2:05:13 pb (2010 Rotterdam), 2011 World Champs silver medalist in marathon. 2:09:15 for 2nd at Lake Biwa Marathon in March.
Bekele is 35 seconds back at 25k.
Leader to leder last 5k was 14:32 and WR pace is 14:34.2
So 5 5k segemnts are 14:28, 14:36 (29:04), 14:40 (43:44), 14:34 (58:18), 14:32 (72:50)
