28:26 for first 10k - suicide pace for this weather
Mengesha is struggling to follow Sawe (and the pacers). 28:25 at 10 km for the leaders. This is 2:00 pace. Kipchoge was in 28:22 when he did the WR (2:01:09).
Gressier's winning time at Worlds was slower: 28:55
Anyone else got another stream link? this one just got blocked by an annoying ad :(
Mengesha's being dropped. On his own.
Mengesha is dropped but if Sawe has totally redlined in this weather, not totally out of it

Try this one:
perfect, thanks!!!
When does flotrack YouTube go behind paywall
42:51 for 15K
3 pacers remaining.
Phenomenal or suicidal :)
42:51 at 15 km for Sawe. It's still fast but it's slower than Kipchoge in 2022 (42:33) but Kipchoge went in 59:51 at halfway that year.
Only 3 pacers with Sawe now (they were 5).
FFS that big dude named "D'Hoore" needs to move in front of the leading women to give them a draft.
I'll be disappointed if Sifan and Tanaka weren't last-minute entries: not like them to miss a race!
20 km split of about 57:09
23°C is a bit too warm, now overcast.
For reference, Kiptum's 20 km split was 57:39.
20k in 57:09. 30s ahead of Kiptum's time.
1:00:16 first half.
1h16sec half marathon is JEEZ
