Cheruiyot is right on Maiyo, both look relaxed but Maiyo looks nervous. Meb is abouy 50 yards back, alone, looks okay.

Cheruiyot looks fantastic. He'll be hard to beat.
gestures what?
Meb's 1:14:24 25k time was faster than the U.S. 25k record.
25K:
Culpepper 75:42
Sell 77:20
Moulton, Verran 79:33
Cheruiyot and Maiyo neck and neck. Meb about 10-15 seconds back, still in it. Nobody else in sight.
Damn my university for not providing me with OLN as part of our cable service in the dorms.
He gave him a wave to go by.
1:29:31 for 30k. Cheruyiot has caught Maiyo. Meb about 15 seconds back.

Reportedly a letsrun poster on the side is starting a thread, bashing Meb because he may not win.
moulton is running out of his mind

Alan beats Meb.
15:10 for that last 5k with some hills.
That time is faster than the official American record for 30k which is 1:31:49 but clearly Special K has run faster in route of a marathon.
Will the two leaders crash on the hills? Let's hope so!
Officially Meb 11 seconds back at 30K. Korir at 60+ seconds off the pace is in fourth. Same three women at 35K mark.
It's downhill
now comes the hardest part of the course and Meb is already slowing down, hope he doesn't crash now.
