Defending berlin champ would’ve been guaranteed top 10 and probably in medal contention if they didn’t use this stupid gimmick course. But these are the same people who made the distance swimmers swim in the seine, so what can you expect.
90% of these guys have never run a course half as hilly as this. Imagine changing any other event in such a drastic way for no reason
Congratulations on having the worst take in this whole thread.

Kipchoge finished behind a japanese runner in Tokyo lol no change he was in medal contention regardless of the course

If these guys didn't like hills, they should've stayed on the track. Marathons (and cross country courses) should take full advantage of the local geography!
Top 3 will come from Tola, Kipruto, Abdi, Geleta. Geleta is not going to do any work in helping those two chase down his teammate, so he could be positioned well for a late surge. I say Kipruto takes it, Geleta 2nd, Tola barely stays ahead of Abdi for the bronze.

Any he ran 2:02 the race before that and less than a year ago. If you went off only boston trying to predict berlin you would have given him no chance
