Ha! That look Kipsang just gave Desisa before destroying him was awesome...

Desisa kinda elbowed Kipsang and tried to surge by and then Kipsang just pulls up next to him glares at him, and pulls away like Desisa is standing still

Kipsang said something to him, too. I wonder what he said.

Whatever it was, it was awesome.

Kipsang just consumed Desisa's soul with that glare and move. Ouch.

I'm several years out from my racing days, but when did it become acceptable for the winner to NOT go congratulate the second place finisher right at the end?

Happened in both the men's and women's races.

Meb catches Kiprotich and Mutai in the last 2 miles to finish 4th.

Top American woman: Linden (5th) 2:28:10

Top American man: Meb (4th) 2:13:17

That's a good day, I'd say

Kipsang is badass

Some serious nip chafing for Arciniaga

I DRINK YOUR MILKSHAKE

Did the announcer really just say that " he spent 8 miles breaking the wind?!" What the hell did hid pre race breakfast consist of?

What do you expect when Kipsang gets elbowed? I wouldn't be going over to congratulate him either

Nick Arcinaga has some serious nipple damage.

Back to drawing board ? Don't think so , pressure , only the pressure she put on herself , word to wise , pacing and pick a faster course , appearance money is nice , maybe next time run a race you have a chance of running faster...

Let ESPN know how you feel. That was pathetic.

I don't know, if the second place guy elbows me with 400m left, I would be a little sour.

if he had pulled that bump pass move on me, not only would i have not shook his hand, i would have backpedeled into the finish line with the double middle finger salute!

I predict a sponsorship by NipEaze or NipGuards.

Likely had his heels stepped on about a hundred times as well.
