If those are the reasons you think he is despised, you haven't read the thread. I am rooting for everyone except David. Guy is the most obnoxious runner in the sport
Gotta hand it to the commentators. They're doing an awful lot with essentially zero information on the leaders. They're putting on a show of endurance all their own.
Seems like the other's timing chips are being slow to upload
Looks like we won't get splits till Devil's thumb in 35-40 mins time
They got an update over ham radio for Last Chance. Looks like Chris Meyers made a move, top 5 are 3 minutes back, including David Roche, and top 9 are another 1 min back, including Killian.

Great views from the drone going uphill up to devil's thumb. Head of the race is Caleb Olson and Chris Myers. No one else on sight.
Adam Peterman 3rd in 4min or so.
Nvm, looks like Kilian and Roche teamed up together to chase them and Peterman is in 5th a min behind.
I thought the only way Roche would have an impact is if he Zach Miller’d the course. Commentators look like roadkill commenting on carnage. That chick’s wig an insane look and DBo needs more friends than the Gaylords. If anyone says they love doing hard things agin I’m logging off…
Roche hanging on to Kilian for the first half of the race wasn't on my bingo card, that's for sure. Let's see if he has burned all his matches to do so.

Rod Farvard is 4min ahead of his own splits last year. Albeit in 10th place, I wouldn't count him out: to me it looks like he is pacing himself without worrying about staying in record times, and he xan make a comeback in the 2nd half.
Vincent Boulliard completely out of contention, but still putting on a solid fight and soldiering through. I think he's almost half an hour behind leaders now

Shows the power of having people who are actually passionate and knowledgeable in the booth. Marathon Majors should be taking note, but of course they won't

I'm really impressed with the commentators, who have now been at it for over 7 hours with just a few short breaks. Is this same duo going to handle the commentary all the way to the finish? Wow.
