When is the Press Conference?
When is the Press Conference?
If Rupp shows up in Brooks or Hoka stuff, I'll change my mind about him.
Is Reed Fischer injured? He does not show up on the latest roster. Hope he's OK.

We just published the men's preview. What will Rupp do in his first race since last year's Chicago and in his first since Alberto Salazar's ban? Should defending champ Mo Farah be considered the favorite or should that honor go to Boston champ Lawrence Cherono?
Make your predictions now.

Wait, "need to pay attention" said that Rupp won't be running and you verified that he's in the know. Are you saying you are wrong for believing someone on your site:):):):):):):)

I don't think he cares one bit if you change your mind or not, he's got a much better life going on than you do.

In the race for second American, i have it this way:
Scott Smith
Shrader
Gregg
Estrada
J.Mock
Bumbalough
Fischer
Root [the big improver]
Hampton
Montanez
All before Stinson and Droddy. I guess the last two will go with the pacers attempting to take 3 and 5 minutes off their PB's but Hampton will run them down like he did last year here if they do.
One subtle change: Matt McDonald in before Montanez.
How do we watch the race? I don't see any information on the main page.
I watched the women's videos you have posted, and I couldn't help but wonder about Stephanie Bruce's gut issues and her lack of treatment for them. Why is she so opposed to treating her gut problems? It would help her race performances, wouldn't it? Also, I'm thinking there has to be some long term damage she is doing to her body by not only forgoing treatment, but doing so while putting so much stress on her body with marathon training. It sounds like an absorption issue to me, but who knows. It just seemed like a strange response to say that she didn't want to take anything to correct it.
What is going on with Stephanie’s mid section? That’s the real question. Google image search if you’re curious.

Gregg is primed to really bust one open. I'd pick him out of everyone on that list.
Any decent announcing / broadcast besides the usual feel-good human interest stories, schlock neighborhood side-shows and commercial fest on the local NBC station?
Best commentary from a few years ago:
"they are now crossing the Hudson River!"
"the wind is quite windy!"

Diastasis Recti. She has been very open about it.

Probably too optimistic on the fast side, this is what could happen if Weather is good.
17 mph winds forecasted so fast times unlikely
Are we about 2 and a half hours away?
It looks like the wind has died down? Weather app now saying ~7 mph and great temps. I think we could see a WR from Kosgei, especially considering how she seems fit enough to not need perfect conditions.

No, only 5 minutes mate:)
