3 Rothlin 2:17:24

Rothlin takes bronze. Maybe this bodes well for non-Africans in the distance events.
Kibet, Shami, Rothlin, Asmerom, Ogata -- top five finishers
Kiplagat fell at least to 8th. That hurts.
Kiplagat jammmed up 1m before the finish-line, scary stuff..., out on a stretcher...

That's all you can think of after such a great race? Color of skin? WTF.
What happened to Ogata? Did he drop his hips? Did the cooling agent wear off?
Dan Robinson 11th
i haven't see any of the guys being given a drink after finishing.
Robinson 11th for GB
Japan wins team title.
Where are our (U.S.) guys?
Many thanks, guys(gals)...
Unfortunately WCSN didn't work so I didn't get to watch the great race. It was just an idle comment, and incidentally, "African" and "non-African" are not skin colors. I'd like to see some upsets, is that so wrong?

Mike Morgan just finished.
A pasty USA guy just came in. Who is it?

Fair enough. No, they aren't skin colors, but I'm pretty certain you were talking about skin color - or else you would've mentioned the 3 three other non-african runners in the top 7 or 8.

Apparently they forgot to have drinks for the finishers at the end. It looked like the winner finally got a bottle of water from his coach five minutes after finishing....
