Yeah, just heard the commentators confirm what I thought happened, bummer. Crazy how missing one bottle can change so much, maybe he had it, we'll never know.
He dropped back almost immediately after missing that bottle...maybe mental?
I suspect he missed the bottle because he was getting tired.

Think Fauble has a shot to pass Manz for top American, he's moving well, has run a smart race. Going to have one of the more even split races in the field
no, 1:30 in 2 miles. Mantz is so locked in catching Kipchoge.

The 3rd place guy (Kipruto?) is coming back.

Interesting how Kipchoge either dominates or gets dropped at 20 miles and fades to 8th. No in-between yet.
It's because he's so mentally weak

Emma looks so strong and her form is still absolutely perfect. Its especially visible with the runner right behind her (Obiri?) having super jerky & kinda ugly form.

Boston is a tough, weird course. Chebet DNF'ed here in 2018, according to Wikipedia, before winning last year.
Hard to say that the first 5k was Kipchoge's undoing, since he was in a pack with all of these guys. But he's certainly never done a diabolical course like this, so he maybe wasn't as mentally prepared for it as he seemed to suggest.
He's following the classic playbook for a Boston blowup. Will he come back next year and try again? Does he want to do NYC this fall?

Seriously. It looks like Emma could shut her mouth and simply do some nose breathing it looks so easy.

Enough with Kipchoge and mantz crap.. they need to talk about the actual race.
Mantz and Kipchoge are in a head to head race against each other right now. Far more of a rare occurrence than what we're seeing up front.

It would be more of a mental thing, knowing that you're going to run out of calories eventually

Yeah like when that French guy spilled all the bottles before getting dropped.

Not when you have a fueling station 5k down the road, it's not that "tight" in terms of fueling.
