Love how as ESPN cuts to commercial, the commentator goes "stuff is getting good now!"

We NEED split screen. A move was just made and we wont be seeing how it plays out.
Why'd Seidel just pore 2 cups of water over her shorts?
Didn’t look like she was going with them… but what do I know I’m watching an Arby’s commercial
The commentators just said Laura Thweatt left her coach, was that the Bosshard group? I thought I saw her doing build up stuff with team pretty recently.
Probably just used the bathroom

We got a big move from the Olympic champ. We will see how Seidel responds.
Kind of looked like Sapporo with Molly off the lead mini-pack by just a few strides and off to the side. She said they were shoving her in Sapporo so she moved over for more space.
Hope she can hang in there. Her face has looked strained from the beginning, so I think that's her run face.
You have to love Seidel. What a star
Yes, she left Boss but I think she still runs with Emma Bates?
Perfect time for a commercial break!

Probably just pulled a triathlete bathroom stop #PeeYourSelf
Kara comments that female athlete "has to behave" (in response to Molly taking a high five from a fan). Cancellable???

So the 2 leaders are on sub 2:08 at HM with a 51" lead, I'd be surprised if they can keep up considering their PR is 2:07...
Huh? You'd be surprised if they run a minute slower then their PR? In perfect weather conditions?
I see you're new to running so here's a pro-tip : compare the friggin' NYC MARATHON times and PRs, you're welcome.

Yes, but still friends with them. Listened to a podcast where she said she just had lunch with Emma Coburn. Her training has been mostly running by feel and effort.
I'd love for one of these two to do a Meb and steal the win.
