My wife was irate during teh 10k which I made her watch last night. She couldn't believe how many commercials there were and how they kept showing the long jump.

To be fair, I timed it (roughly) and we got just over 20 minutes of 10k.... Plus, that LJ was pretty exciting!

Leaders hit 10k in 34:22, which is exactly 2:25:00 pace. Desi Linden has dropped back just slightly from the lead pack but slowly making up that ground.

Desk is trying to run even splits and the front pack just put a surge and ran 5:17. She will be back in the front pack.

Africa vs. USA

usa is back in. group of 11

Great shot just then of Shalane and Desi looking smooth, running along the clearly marked shortest distance line....and on the other side of the road, on the OUTSIDE of the turn, 8 Africans running abreast, extra distance, no drafting, terrible form. Unbelievable.

Come on girls run smart

Desi*

There were 13 in lead pack at 10k including all 3 americans - 34:22 - which is 2:25:00 pace. However a 5:17 mile has broken that pack up and the Americans were briefly dropped.

39 minutes the 3 Americans have now caught back up and it's 11 in the lead pack.

NBC is now showing missy frankling interview - no split screen. Thank God I have BBC stream on

Wejo, be glad you are in there in person.

Come back from commercial and have to interview Missy Franklin. She did $hit the Olympics
