Not seeing Live in this bar...browsing from US.

Will switch to browsing from UK.

I had to refresh the page before it showed

I can't get over this men's field. Crazy

Edna's already struggling at the back of that pack. Currently at sub-2:18 pace and I don't know if Priscah and Florence can sustain that pace.

Mo jumping around a lot at the introductions.

Stephen Kiprotich is a great racer but man is he going to get smacked if he goes out in 1:02:15

Jeilan is a dark horse today!!!!

I was wondering if Geb was going to wear the striped singlet. Nope.

The Emperor gets a special pace kit, sweet.

Mo's "new" form not particularly attractive IMHO.

Mo and Jeilan running side by side. Dos Santos and a couple other guys just behind. Where's the 62:15 pacer(s)?

The German feed is better, but I wish they'd commentate in English .. :)

Mo's group (with Jeilan and Kiprotich?) wisely back of the lead group already.

Mo's got his own pacers. Oooooooh the last 10k of this will be sooooo good.

group 1: 3 pacers (including Geb), g. mutai, e. mutai, kipsang, abshero, kebede, mekonnen, biwott, s. tsegaye

Good question.

I think that Mo, Jeilan and Dos Santos sat further back off of the lead group than they had too.

They were way back right away, while 62:15 vs 61:45 is less than 3s/mile difference. So the 62:15 pacemakers were ahead of them.

For the love of god why can't I get a live feed on this?

Holy sh** .. I think the German feed is being shot with a hand held GoPro.. now its awful

Men: 4:36 first mile. Ouch.

Mo has a much better shot now.

men 1 mile-4:36
