I still don't get it. The only option I see there is to hear a radio broadcast (no video).

You have to use a proxy if outside the UK, like Hola. However for me it's still not working even with hola ... in the past has worked for me though.

For fifteen to twenty miles, the marathon feels easy, very easy, in fact; until it' becomes difficult, then suddenly, it becomes extremely difficult.

kipchoge looks rather ominous

How the **** dio I stream this? I just woke up. HALP.

Currently Kipchoge and Biwott look really comfortable, as does Bekele, but not sure if Bekele can keep this up for the second half. Kimetto not enjoying this

Men 10 Mile: 46:32

Wow!

Women have slowed considerably. Pack of 7.

Sumgong leads but looks like folks are taking turns on pace. Kettany in the pack but dropped off the front, possibly to avoid increasing wind

It's bad enough we have to put up with masback (who might be the worst sports announcer of all time). But they are breaking to commercial every 90 seconds. Definitely more commercial time than race coverage.

How come nbc cab show an entire bike race that is over 5 hours with no commercial break but a 2 hour marathon cannot go more than 2 min before they take a break

Masback sux

How come they don't have girl pacers to pace the girls? There's noone pacing them. Pace inequity.

Kipsang waving one of the pacers back to the front

KIPSANG URGING THE PACEMAKER TO KEEP PACE!!

Brilliant stuff!

Going over Tower Bridge. Tight lead pack.
