67:46 for O'Keeffe, any news on whether she's in a marathon build?

No. At least her stated goal is to run some shorter races (like today) early and run a marathon later in the year.
lol at strava flagging Mantz's race

Jack Rowe - 1:02:03. Was kind of expecting more.
Yeah, should at least be 61-low, probably sub-61. He seems to have gone backwards a bit since early last year.
Better news for the Brits in the shape of Paddy Dever and Amy Eloise Neale. 60:19 and 68 are good results for them. I think Dever could get that down to sub-60. Calli Thackeray ran pretty well, but I kind of expect more from her by now Even though she was third overall.

Is it possible the course was long? I have around 15 people on strava showing measurements between 13.25 and 13.31 including the pros.
Tons of downvotes but if you've have not ran a large race or through midtown Manhattan you may think this.
There were about 28,000 runners in the mass starts. There is a huge amount of weaving through human traffic that occurs in these races. Also, satellites hate the faraday cage created by the metal holding up the BK bridge as well as every building over 20 stories.
This is a certified course, the distance is accurate.
Sharon Lokedi. In Kenyan he’s known as Sharon’s husband not king chez.

Incredible run by Mantz. Especially in the middle of a Boston build. This kind of race really plays to his strengths. Hopefully he can parlay this into an outstanding race in Boston.
Mantz once again proves he is the real deal. No flukes here
To be fair, Abel's zigzagging was hilarious and left Mantz looking like a fool, like a FOOL!
Lol. It's not because of the final time tho. It's the buildings throwing his pace up to 2min-3min mile pace from 10-12. Caption still funny

Looks like the biker that was getting on the course at 1:12:48 could have gotten in Connors way? The camera changes so its not in view but with how slowly that bike was going theres no way Connor didn't have to change his line to go around it.

Great race. Conner Mantz is a tough dude.
As said, a little disappointing from Rowe, great run from Thackery and Dever though.

surprisingly good broadcast. No sad life story segments from random participants.
They missed both moves for both running races, covered the kids race during the Marathon with interviews from kids that were there only for fun, showed interviews from yesterday with the wheelchair participants during the race instead of showing the race. Should I go on…?
What other American men have run sub-60 twice or more?
