World Champs - Day 3

Chonky lead pack right now ngl, too risky to make a big move

I'll take hammers over wheelchairs though

Let's go Yaseeeeen

No Tamirat Tola style racing this year. At least 15 men by my count.

Only about 12 people left in lead pack, including Clayton

For those that don’t know, the Imperial Palace is an AirBnB owned by Darth Vader.

I picked "Other" because they didn't have Clayton as an option for bronze. Still 30 minutes for me to completely eat this comment though, let's see

I really like seeing Clayton in the lead pack. I’m just trying to g to keep my expectations low. but fun to have this moment. LFG CY

Wow ok ableist. Me too tho tbh; hammers interfere with Marathon footage far less frequently

The Italian from Syracuse is punching above his weight. Always interesting to see who translates well to the marathon

Damn, Clayton looks good. Levins and Carissa seem to be off the back of the pack

Nah it will age well lol Clayton's got this

JK they’re still there too

Young looks very solid. He has been chilling this whole race, just cruising. 2:08-2:10 is his money pace.

Announcers say 17 in lead pack; Kiplangat (UGA) still at front. Cam Levins at back of lead group.

Cam Levins back into the front group as the pace seems to slow

I’m just pumped he “committed” to this lead pack regardless of the circumstances. He’s been talking a big game, so he’s got to at least try to back it up. I’d rather see him go for a medal and blow up out of the top 10 then get 6-10th.

he’s proved he can be top 10 last year at the Olympics. Time to go for the medal CY!

He has talked about doing a ton of heat training and sauna, like Deena and Meb did before Athens Olympics when they both medaled, looks like it is paying off!

yaseen not doing so well according to worldathletics.org

Takele (ETH) drops out...
