That’s great and all but a bummer not to see an American contend for the win or at least the podium.

Do Nascimento just went 4:37 for his 5th mile. 23:09 through 5 miles, which is 2:01:23 pace. This is just stupidly fast. Will he even finish the race?
I was watching the race at half way mark. This guy was running so fast. It took awhile for the next group of men to come by. A crazy guy. He was laser focused.

Any finishing time for Ben True ?

Long before the marathon, in the past week Ben True announced that he was out of the race. Someone must not turn on his or her computer very often to follow the news.

Any update on DDN?

Thank goodness I have my computer to tell me real time positions for those NOT in the lead groups, and then the finishing places and times of runners after the podium finishers. Those idiots on the ESPN2 broadcast did not even list the Top Ten men's finishers. Ditto the women's Top Ten finishers, I think. Call him slow, as the armchair elite marathoners will, but kudos to Scott Fauble. And GUESS WHAT, ESPN2? Reed Fischer's 10th place IN THE ENTIRE RACE and finish as the 2nd American are worth at least a mention. Huge congrats to the Americans. Forget the times -- every runner was slowed by the heat and humidity, and it's not a fast course. But times in this race aren't a measure of success, are they?? I'll bite my tongue regarding other cr*pola on the (sometimes) stupid ESPN2 broadcast.

It’s embarrassing. We are so bad at running.
Can they get their own division like the non b
This is just some trolling I know, but 2:08 is a SLOW winning time for a Marathon Major. The Americans did fine with a +5 min differential from faster races.

Fauble is a smart runner. In a race like this, I’m sure it is worth more for him to be top American than anything else. He ran the whole race around that goal. Perfectly even splits on a terrible weather day where everyone else died.

Scott Fauble is still slow
Can't wait to hear more about how slow American times were today with temps in the 70s & a 60s dew point.
As far as Fauble's times go -- his 2:08 PB is from Boston & he pretty much only runs NYC/Boston/Olympic Trials. He's really just gone after a fast marathon once in his career (Marathon Project- out in 2:08 pace, finished with a 2:09). & he's only gone after a fast half once & ran 1:01 in January in Houston. If he ran Berlin/London every year since 2016 & went out in 1:03-1:04 he'd have faster PBs. Probably something around 2:07ish. 2:13 & top-10 is a strong effort today. 2:10 got on the podium. You can't possibly just read his 2:13 today as a 2:13. Same with the American women -- the top-5 crushed it today.
You can read it as not prepared to compete for a podium in any major race. These US men would be also rans at Frankfurt, Rotterdam, and Gold Coast, too. It's not merely being slow in absolute terms of marks at a given race under particular conditions, it's being slow in relative terms to the best of the rest of the world. Why should we put any attention on guys who prove again and again that they either can't or won't progress? They get a bit of a gift as NYRR tries to cater heavily to US runners, if not to the degree of Chicago or Boston, and still they squander the opportunity. Save Mantz, there is nobody in the pro ranks even close to the same level that Rupp has represented for the past decade. For context, remember this happened just last year and nobody's talking about any of these gentlemen as medal threats for Budapest or Paris:111 -

Top American, the original sub-elite division.

Florence and Prague marathons as well

US men finished better at the 1982 NYC Marathon, on a harder course, with lesser shoes.
Fact.

Had this been golf they would have posted all of the players score. Why can't they at least go top twenty finishers?

Igy: good training plan which I will plagiarize and use.
Allen1959: patience sucks, but it works. Good for you.
Newbi: the time to retirement goes by faster than a training run. One day at a time. I like the training.Scubacane: effort running is the fastest way to improving and to enjoying the runs. Excellent.
Olde Farte: my grandkids have begun inquiring about my runs and running with me. I giggle to their reactions to how far I run, “you go further than around the track?”
Old Guy and dhaaga are so damned consistent. Quietly inspiring.I took myself in to see the doc: I earned a grade 1 high ankle sprain. I can run to pain without long-term damage. goodie.
M: 60:00 treadmill @ 13:40 paceT: 75:00 treadmill @ 11:50 pace
W: 9M w/6M push, last 3M @ HMP
Th: 90:00 treadmill @ 86-109 HR avg (determined heart rate better than treadmill pace)
F: 40:00 treadmill @ 105-119 HR
Sat: 15M - first 5M in the dark (I don’t run fast in the pitch dark) @ 11:50 pace; middle 5M @ 10:30 pace; final 5M @ 9:30 pace. Felt good about it. Not bad for being 63 with a bad ankle and assorted other aging issues.
enjoy the week16 -

I cheered him on and called out his name full name. just before he went up Pulaski bridge. I think he noticed. First American again.

Then the guy goes back to work on Monday and the boss mentions his race and his coworkers say they ran a 5k marathon last week

I'm here thinking improving my form will make me a better runner, then I see guys like Kitata with that horrible form but running that fast. Would he be faster with better form? Does it even matter?
