I hope I'm wrong, but I don't see Abdi Nageeye on the podium. Even top five will be a stretch for him. He has the home advantage, but he hasn't got the speed of his competitors.

I think Bashir Abdi will prevail. Compared to his Dutch friend Abdi Nageeye, he has the faster PR.
When they (rarely) train together, Bashir Abdi is usually the strongest.
Or Marius Kipserem wins again.
Bashir Abdi has had calf and hamstring injuries and says he's not the runner he was last year. He will try and run with the fastest group nevertheless.

I wonder about the pacers’ instructions. I would like to see them thru halfway in 61.50. Maybe 69.30 for the first three women.
Saw the women’s pacing: heading for 2.19 as expected. Two could get there, IMO

Belgium's Bashir Abdi ran 2:03:35 last year, setting the course record and the European record.
Dutchman Abdi Nageeye has a 2:06:XX PR and is in my opinion the slower runner. His Olympic silver was a one-off.
Bashir Abdi will prevail.
And Marius Kipserem, former winner and course record holder, wants to take back there course record.
So yes, we might see fast times.

Jake Smith of Great Britain is 44:09 at 15k, this would put him under Mo Farah's British Record of 2:05.11 Very early though, more realistic is Steve Jones 2:07.13 British Born Record, He will probably hit the wall, but props to him for going for it.

Couldn't figure out what the word "PACE" on his bib meant?
