Official London marathon thread

Finally, but the woman are well on their way.

I just want to say the BBC and London are amazing. I have men's feed, women's feed and overal feed.

I also have every mile split live on the screen.

I talked to Jerry Schumacher in Boston. He watched the race on tv in the hotel and basically never got a single sp[lit on tv. I was like "They announced them in the press room" i could have at least texted them to you. Here, they are on the screen.

4:40 first mile!!! 2:02:21 pace.

It's because of this wonderful thing called taxes. We pay like 30 USD or so per month just for having a TV in our homes - or even watching BBC online - otherwise you get the Scottland Yard knocking on the door. Not a bad thing to pay taxes, oder?
