2:12.53 for true
Just 1" behind the great Bekele, not too shabby ! Too bad they didn't show it...
Kandie did finish, was going backwards at the end though, 9th@5:21 in 2:13:43
Choge seems like he'll finish this time..in about 2:20 though !
Did Bekele actually kick to maintain his position or did True simply not have time to catch him

Well, bear in mind he just ran what: 2:06:47 something a few weeks ago at London good for 3rd place? I think that's the best excuse for a 39 year old dude.
The race clocks were clearly visible. They ran 2:37.
What happened to Kandie? Was it his knee or did he hit the wall?

It’s over and somebody needs to break the news to KB. What a great career, but with every race his legacy is diminished. Kenny the goat is a distant memory. The real question is whether or not team Bekele is fooling themselves or simply fooling the rest of us to cash a few last checks. I hope it’s the former. At least that’s understandable and typical of great athletes at the end of their career’s. The latter would be unforgivable.
Super shoes making a mockery of the sport! Sad!
Who is Nathan Martin (third American behind True)? Seems to be unsponsored

Only three Americans under 2:14 and none under 2:11. Doesn’t speak well of American distance running. We need someone other than Rupp to step up and be competitive on the world stage.
Rupp has never run NYC.
And 2:11:15 for Kibet is the second fastest American this year. 2:11 on this course is excellent!

The coverage in Portuguese wasn't bad, got it from a Youtube channel Running Love, so don't know if it was from Brazil or actually Portugal. But...happy with their coverage.
See ya in da douches!!!
Is Kibet in 4th not American? 2:11

I blame Hermens. He's really done him dirty.
Two sleepless nights versus one sleepless night in Berlin maybe ?
This is actually a realistic result for someone who ran 2:06 in Berlin in the heat with a huge positive split. Hermens misled us.

Jepchirchir is entering the goat conversation. Wow, Seidel is a natural born marathoner. Amazing. What can she run on a flat fast course under good conditions? Any chance she can manage the AR? She seems to be getting stronger and stronger.
