A bunch of random American white girls are on 2:22 pace right now. I think there will be a lot of blowups in the back half.

i remember the first time i watched tour de france coverage and it was so good, they just showed the race & didn't treat the audience like morons. i didn't know anything about the sport but caught up to speed quickly bc they weren't pandering to me like some chump. espn is the worst

Why can't they give the time and mile/kilometer count, in tenths, in a little box at the bottom, as they do in all Euro races?
Speak of the devil. They just did it!

What is Mengesha running in, are those Vaporflys?

Broadcast needs to take a discussion backseat given how well Mengesha is running. Is what it is, complaining doesn't change it.

Mengesha might have this in the bag already.

Not even close. Chicago has that crown wrapped up. I think at least two years in a row they haven't even displayed the race time on the screen. Once I think even had one of the winners coming in to maybe break a record by a few seconds or not...no clock...just announcers vaguely referring to the time.

What's the opposite of running a tangent? Because that's what Mengesha is doing right now.

How the heck is Carrie Ellwood in the front? Her best marathon time is 2:31 five years ago.....

I am so pumped to see so many top US women in this. I don’t even care if they blow up. They are sending it! The ones still up there have proven track records so I don’t think they are misjudging their effort.

I saw that. I wonder if sometimes you feel "in the flow", and the conscious effort to shift to run the tangent would disrupt that.
