the english stream on watchathletics is showing snooker or something so i'm watching the german stream from eurosport. they don't show the clock or the splits or the pace. all they show is dudes running with absolutely nothing to gauge how they're doing. gotta be the worst coverage for a distance race in the history of bad broadcasts.

Nice!

Don't fall for the fake ads, and full screen the video

you'll get it!

wow sweet

40K at 1:58:31

Feed said 1:58:31 at 40k, I think.

He's still rolling - 2:05:01 pace at 40k.

He can't relax as he wants to get the 2:05:12 course record and break 2:05!!!

Gonna be a fun finish.

not surprising Bekele is a baller!!

Everyone minus Bekele & Getachew are paying for the fast pace

What was his time?

Should be 2:04 high no problem-remember, he's got a 53 second last lap if he needs it, folks!

Doesn't look great, going up a hill with just over a k to go. Gonna need a kick for sure.

This course seems to have virtually no security

Ha .. "3:28 for a 1500m a year before a marathon is "unusual""

LOL

Yeah these spectator weirdos coming out of the woodwork are making me he**a nervous!

Parisians seem to think the course is a join-in free for all

get these clowns off the course!

Looks like he'll just miss the course record.

"put a couple of marshalls on the corner!"

amen

Seriously. I'm kind of scared that someone is going to tackle Bekele 2 meters before finish line.
