Official 2023 Boston Marathon Live Discussion and Updates Thread

I like Kipchoge's gloves. Quite different from the painter's gloves Bill Rodger had back in '79

Leading woman just fixed her wheelchair. Respect!

Why was the local stream on til 8am? What was the purpose? Is ESPN really the only option?

Download the app Very Local. Deny location data. Enter Boston zip code 02113. Watch live.

Anyone seen Andamlak Belihu? I think he was missing from a few documents, wondering if he scratched

The stream above seems to be going down and I wouldn't trust clicking the "link in the chat". I found another live stream but it is not quite as clear.

FFS, show the race. We don't need to watch commentators talking to each other.

pulled out about 12 hours ago

No history at all. Last year was the first time they did this.

thanks

Connor Mantz looks caffeinated.

Nobody early challenging Kipchoge. Running as a pack with Kipchoge right in front.

Everyone just lining up behind Kipchoge. Like they've already ceded victory to him? Or just let him lead and then try to win?

Are there any other announcing teams besides ESPN? I see it's the ESPN feed on the local station.

I dont remember ever seeing people changing their tires back in my high school cross country days. Crazy how much running has changed

4:37 mile 1. It is ON?

Avoid US coverage even at the cost of not watching. The narration is guaranteed to be horrendous and they will 100% cut off right before any interesting developments. Use a VPN to watch international coverage or find a live Eurosport link online.

First mile for elites 4:37.
